Man, I’d love to meet the man, just so I could tell him to fuck off and die.
Or, like a late friend put it: May lightning strike him when he sits on the shitter.
We can only hope.
A lot of these actually are criminals why should we have to keep them?
It's really simple if you have a basic, or very tiny, ability to think about it for two seconds. Let's see if I can help. Criminals being deported are a huge problem for any receiving county, you see, they often don't have any legal pretext to imprison or arrest them, if they committed crimes in anther nation, it's unlikely the can collect evidence, or call witnesses to a legal process, also, it's quite rare to have laws that apply to actions that occurred outside all legaly boundaries. It's it illegal if an American goes to a county they don't have documentation to be in, then commit crimes outside the US against other people without any way for the US to detect or prove these actions? So if Colombia has an American who kills dozens of people in their country, and is charged and sentanced to life without parole, and then the decide YEARS after the fact to put them on a plane to LAX and throw them off the plane with no other effort, do you want to let that plane land? That's fucking insane. The solution to this problem already exists. Instead of being a fascist stupid fuck, you can create an extradition process where we can accept the Colombian legal process and transfer them ourselves to a US prison without dumping serial killers at an airport on their own.
Being a threatening authoritarian isn't solving this problem, and thinking every country in the world will simply accept people who have been convicted an sentanced in another nation is fucking stupid. And thinking they can't manage to exist outside US economic good will it's also stupid. If he think burning every ally in Latin America is going to hurt them more than us, he's as dumb as everyone already knows.
We don't actually know what is going on. We had a system that favored protections for people presumed innocent until proven guilty.
Now Trump is moving so fast with a process that is not transparent and a rhetoric that is hostile and unsympathetic towards all immigrants. People are understandably suspicious that the immigrants were given a fair chance to defend their legal presence in the USA.
Shit, I won't be surprised when legal us born citizens get deported in a mix up.
They're already rounding up native Americans in these groups. It's only a matter of time until they start deporting randomly to other countries because ICE was already an incompetent organization and has done that previously numerous times, speeding things up just means more fuckups. Which is of course, the plan. Because it's not about illegals, or immigrants, it's about non-whites.
Stop using that label as an excuse to treat people as subhuman.
The state is rounding up people en masse and shipping them off to a foreign country. This process took a week. Due process is not present. This is some straight-up Nazi shit, and if you can't at least mutter "fuck that," then please shut up.
Basically nobody opposes deporting actual criminals (not political crimes). The problem is that it isn't the cartel members and bank robbers who get rounded up when a factory is raided. And the mother fleeing persecution is treated the same as the drug kingpin.
Deportation as a mechanism of punishment for state and federal crimes is generally bad policy. It is excessively draconian (it effectively renders them homeless, unemployed, and indefinitely denied their family and friends for... what? Too many parking tickets? Working construction without a license? Illegally camping?) for some. And entirely too lenient (deporting hardened criminals and cartel leaders like serial rapists or murderers effectively guarantees their release in states that can't afford to jail them) for others.
That's why we'll often extradite gang leaders into the US from overseas, when the crimes are severe enough. Its also why "sanctuary cities" regularly look the other way for petty offenses in order to avoid the mass economic disruption of ICE interference in municipal matters.
Injecting immigration penalties into the civil justice system fucks with all the basic functions of local courts and prosecutors. It raises the stakes on minor offenses and gives the worst offenders a get-out-of-jail-free card.
All that is assuming you even have somewhere to send undocumented criminals. For people who are functionally stateless - migrants who came over as children without papers, refugees from countries that cannot repatriate them or effectively no longer exist, Native Americans who the Feds don't want to recognize as legal US residents - the ability to deport is little more than Penal Transportation. Nevermind how it routinely violates the 5th and 8th amendment, it mostly just means bribing a small, bankrupt satrap of the US to accept planeloads of random people, often without so much as a proper conviction.
the u, s and a are actually deporting people over misdemeanors?
Yes.
You're asssuming they got mothers on this specific flight? I've seen nothing about innocents in this flight being posted, are these not straight up criminals on this flight? Can you show me articles I cant find any
What crimes? Criminal conrains everyone from movie pirates to ocean pirates.
Yeah, why shouldn't we send all Republicans to another country? Or how about those criminals guilty of being Jewish, or black, or gay? Or how about the crime of "looking too Mexican," like the US did to US citizens during Operations Wetback 1 & 2.
Also, love how you even say "some of them are criminals," not all of them. Meaning that you're okay with gathering up some amount of innocent people and sending them to a different country with nothing more than the clothes on their backs.
And let's get this clear, sending someone back to their "home" country without a plan or an actual home to go to should be a criminal act. These people are often productive members of US society who pay more taxes than Aotus. They already have homes and family in the US.
This is beyond despicable and crosses into the the realm of pure evil.
Because we're not entitled to force some other country to take them!
WTF did you think the answer was‽
Where was this disdain for criminals at voting time?
Ah yes, because criminals are subhumans who should be exterminated like the cockroaches they are. And if we can't take the trash out back like we should we can at least make it not our problem and make sure the cockroaches aren't in our backyard. That's what you're saying right?
