Yes legal immigrants can be deported if they commit a deportable offense or if their status changes.

Yes they can be deported if they brake certain laws. Once they become citizens they can break any law and won't be deported. (weird huh?) but anyway just to clarify the other answer it doesn't matter what the status is, if they come from other country they are still immigrants, ;)

It depends if they are on conditional perment resident he can not commit a serious felony for 2 years after that waiting period he gets 10 year perment residence and then it would be up to the court system and immigration if they wanted to deport them if they did something seriously wrong..

Yes, legal immigrants can get deported, all they have to do is to get a felony and after they do their jail term, they get deported. So you have a good one.

Yes, they can. But they'd have to break a law which constitutes they are dangerous, before deportation is possible.
If they've became a citizen, then no.

No, coz they would have to try and revoke your green card in a law of court and with a good lawyer, you can fight it.
Now of course if you have a serious felony thats a whole other story in which you would be facing serious prison time.
