you're right, he needs sponsorship. But the ads he is talking about don't say they don't sponsor, they just say US Citizens only. When I said it's not discrimination if "there is a visa involved" I meant that if the company has to get him one, I agree, they are perfectly entitled to not want to hassle with it. All I am saying is that if he were in the US already, legally, and they refused to hire him because they only hire US citizens, that is descrimination. That's what I am saying.
