CITIZEN NEIL: Neil Young Becomes A U.S. Citizen


DEVELOPING

Last year, the application by Canadian Neil Young to become a U.S. citizen was delayed due to "possible lack of GMC (Good Moral Character)".

In a posting on Neil Young Archives, Neil has just now posted a photo of him saluting the US flag, with a caption: "I'm Happy To Report In. Vote Your Conscience."







CITIZEN NEIL, welcome to the U.S.of A. !


Neil Young

Last year, in a posting on Neil Young Archives: "I Have Been Very Successful In My Life", Neil revealed that his initial citizenship interview went fine, but due to a technicality, another interview was required by the USCIS because of his "marijuana related activities".

In October 2019, Neil Young said in an interview: “I’ve passed all the tests; I’ve got my appointment, and if everything goes as planned, I’ll be taking the oath of citizenship” shortly after turning 74 on Nov. 12." Neil continues to be optimistic on becoming a U.S. citizen in order to "vote my conscious on Donald J. Trump".

In the meantime, President Donald J. Trump continues to use Neil Young's song "Rockin' in the Free World" at his campaign rallies as.


Neil Young's song "Rockin' in the Free World" starts @ ~1:50 - ~6:30

President Trump used Young's song "Rockin' in the Free World" at a campaign rally in Lexington, KY on Nov. 4, 2019.



Naturally, Daryl Hannah is not pleased.



Nor is Crazy Horse's Nils Lofgren pleased.



"This land is your land, this land is my land
From the California to the New York island
From the Redwood Forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me"

CITIZEN NEIL, welcome to the U.S.of A. ! ☮️ ♥️

  6. I'm so glad that Neil is officially an American citizen.

    I'm so sad that he aligns with the despicable Democrat Party.

    and no I'm not a Republican...both parties piss me off

    but at least...oh never mind

    sigh...

  7. For some reason this makes me sad (absolutely nothing against America). That said, when Scotland gets her independence (soon), make it a 3 passport deal Neil, back to your original roots....

  8. Hello Thrasher

    What KIND of a SALUTE was THAT?

    Certainly NOT an AMERICAN (military) salute!!!

    Google It!!!

    (Thrasher… If it’s not too much trouble would you mind posting it for me on my behalf)

    Ironically I googled American salute without the word military and the original salute for the American children in schools during the Pledge of Allegiance was the Nazi heil Hitler arm salute

    the guy who wrote the Pledge of Allegiance came up with that salute back in the 1800s but disbanded it when Hitler came along.

    I spent years in the US Army and it always bugs me when people don’t salute properly including presidents of the United States.

    Take care
