as a green card holder it is illegal for me to go home to Ireland & buy a cuban cigar.
That just seems wrong to me on many levels. I understand the US can make laws to govern with in it's own boarders. But to tell an Irish citizen just because he has a green card he is unable to purchase a legal item in the country of his birth is overstepping a bit.Yes, I agreed to live by US laws when I applied for my Green Card, but I never gave up my Irish Citizenship. I'm an Irishman first and fore most. The dutch cigars mentioned above, I had not knowledge of the tobacco's origin until I hit Goggle this morning.
It will always be a battle a day between those who want maximum change and those who want to maintain the status quo.
