Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
You can’t deport citizens
If a cop rolled up on you, could you prove right then and there you are a citizen? Unless you habitually carry your passport or birth certificate or immigration papers, almost certainly not.
Are you going to have any way to prove it while you are in a holding facility with no access to a lawyer or at best a public defender who has heard the same story 80 times today?
This certainly wouldn't be the first time an American Citizen got deported.

This would be a good time to remind everyone that you can actually get a passport card that will fit in your wallet:

Yes, a lot of us can because our licenses provide that verification.
Are licenses not like that in other states?
You don't have to be a citizen to get a license in a lot of places. I actually don't know of any that do but clearly I'm not fully informed.
I don't think illegals can get a license here.
Non-citizens have to provide documentation to convert their out-of-country license.
Looks like anyone who has a "non-compliant" license is able to maintain it but new ones are no longer issued.
Illegals are a significant form of labor in this red state but the state hates them.
I doubt that will work under Trump plan. Better not be brown and if you are carry that passport thing or something.
Why would Trump roll back anti-illegal license requirements? That's kinda his thing.
Course not you put them in the US Justice System where corporations can then exploit their incarceration with free labor
When your non-citizen family members go ... I'm losing a school kid next week. I think her mom is scared so she's going home. Kid is non-verbal, non-ambulatory, super sweet and doing well at school. What will her life look like in Venezuela? Dad is staying, but he can't work and take care of the kiddo.
Didn’t they understand that risk when they entered the country illegally? I mean I know they are in a desperate situation, but if I was fleeing to Canada and then I get kicked out because I’m there illegally what right do I have to complain?
Mom's visa is about to expire. She doesn't think they'll renew it and she's afraid to try.
We have before.

I think what you mean to say is "deporting a citizen would be illegal." It is certainly possible for police and presidents to do illegal things. Remember the broad immunity granted to presidents by SCOTUS?
Maybe say that to veterans that were promised citizenship but got deported for a crime.
They can and have.
It's resulted in lawsuits so we know it has. What's really scary is what about the people who didn't manage to phone home?
