I'm gonna guess this sort of thing is more the rule than the exception. The goal isn't to deport actual gang members, it's to signal a tough-on-illegal-immigration policy without the challenge that comes with actually deporting people who aren't trying to be found. So they just deport law abiding people who are easier to find because the reality doesn't matter.
The illegal part seems to be optional in some cases, based on skin tone.
also dont want to scare off too many "illegal immigrants" that are being employed by red states that sustains thier economy too.
Can somebody shoot the ICE agents already? Your stupid guns are all show. No difference whether you have any at all...
I’ve personally heard a few people say that’s exactly their plan. It’s basically “I’m a citizen but I’m brown so I’m fucked either way. I might as well make em work for it since the end result for me will be the same regardless. If I’m gonna get taken down, I might as well make it worth it. Why wait to die in an El Salvadorian prison, when I can go out where it’ll at least make some headlines?”
Again, I have heard several people say things like this individually. I fully believe it’ll happen eventually, as soon as they try to stop the wrong person.
The problem is that the wrong people have guns in the US. Most of the left ignorantly believes that they can get by without, when half the country is armed and is practically begging their god emperor to say the word.
Most people left-of-center in the US are too afraid to touch a gun. Meanwhile the far-right collect guns like trophies.
Guns mean nothing if the "good guys" continue having their fantasy of non-violence.
Edit: And while there might be individuals left-of-center who do have guns, it doesn't acomplish anything unless we have a lot of them also collectively take up arms to defend against tyranny, as in an organized militia.
There are currently more right-wing militias than any left-wing ones.
Most people left-of-center in the US are too afraid to touch a gun.
The number of left of center people in the gun license course I took last year indicate that that may be changing.
Even with increasing gun control in Canada many Canadians are wanting to get armed. Also many Canadians disagree with thr brazen and sweeping bans on so many rifles.
And many Canadians are still for the ban and against civilians arming themselves. We are not the US, we are one of the safest place on earth. If people want to defend the country against outside threat then they should join the army where they'll have a bigger impact.
Well Trump essentially made it official yesterday that even if someone is imprisoned by mistake it will not be reversed
And if you are someone he doesn't like, for your views, your skin color, your accent, your sexual orientation, your gender, your education, your occupation, your ethnicity, the way you look at him, or how you don't fawn over him enough or fall behind with your protection payments, he'll have you "accidentally" kidnapped and imprisoned for life or until the Salvadoran authorities decide you're a waste of resources and kill you.
Bottom line: if you weren't born here, you're getting thrown out, and NOTHING will stop them, including a Green Card or Naturalization.
Eventually, it won't even matter if you were born here, and are a full natural American-born citizen, from generations of American-born citizens. If they don't like you, you're gone.
They're already admiting they are targeting US citizens.
This is why he's selling those dipshit citizenship gold Visa's. He gets your money and he'll still just send you to El Salvador.
Of course, realize that being a natural born us citizen isn't going to stop them at some point. When they have eliminated whomever they deem a problem, it won't be missing accomplished, it will just be time to modify the parameters of who a problem person is
Both the American and El Salvadoran heads of state have stated that neither is able to return people sent from the US to CECOT.
In other words, this man will die in CECOT.
Trump has the "excuse" of having to depend on El Salvador for this but there's no way Bukele has no control over their prison system. This is the same guy that had the weight to "sanitize" El Salvador of criminals, i'm sure there's nothing within El Salvador's borders this guy can't control.
In other words, this man will die in CECOT.
This guy is likely already dead, which would also be the only somewhat logical explanation as to why Nayib can't return him.
That sends a chill down my spine. If neither heads of state can return the people, that can only mean that they're already dead.
We might already be in the "death camps" phase of fascism.
According to the original article, he was here legally waiting until their court date in 2027 to see a judge. He is not a US citizen, but he also is not an “illegal alien.”
No alleged history of crime. No crime in process when detained. Was following the immigration process.
If anyone wants to argue with you about others who have been detained and deported as being “criminals” or “illegals,” this should be evidence to the fact that it isn’t true and ICE doesn’t care. We’re in the slippery slope now.
He should have got the Gold card instead of the Green card, they are the only immigrants safe from deportation now and it'll cost you $5m for that peace of mind.
There's no slope. We're at the ''you didn't stop this when it was stoppable''
It’s going to be stopped when people stop whining on Internet forums and do something
Now? We're damn near the bottom of the mountain at this point.
I really fear that this is just the beginning of much worse things to come.
Looks like if you re approached by ICE, you need to assume it's a kidnapping.
Indeed, do not cooperate and fight back. They are NOT a legal authority. If they have a uniformed officer with them (state or city), demand the officer arrest you instead. It MAY be worth it to cause a scuffle and get arrested for assault, which could be dropped as self defense. I'm not a lawyer though, just my opinion. You have to fight these assholes. Get the low level pukes into court and tied up fighting charges. Make them scared to do their master's bidding.
And being sent to El Salvador is a death sentence. I would act in self-defense appropriately.
Glad to hear it. State law is not your friend, and now, it's your enemy. If you're targeted, the vest that says POLICE (or ICE) means nothing. They are just people in a fancy outfit. They're still there to intrude and fuck up your life.
Laying down doesn't save these people any more.

Lol, the "fairness meter" says unfair left leaning. The article is literally just stating what occurred. ❄️
Reality has always had a heavy leftist bias.
Facts have a liberal bias.

Forcibly remove first, ask questions later is going to soon end up kidnapping random people out of the country...
Conservative excuses and goalposts will adapt as we go along:
- but look, he was supposed to be deported anyway (Abrego Garcia)
- doesn't matter that he has a valid asylum case, he came here illegally so he should be kicked out (Gutiérrez)
- If you don't want to support America, you shouldn't have a green card (Mahdawi)
- he looks like he came from out of the country and he helps illegal migrants anyway, too bad he's a US citizen
- these were people spewing violent rhetoric about Trump and America, take them out of the country if they don't want to be here
- hey wait, this is a mistake!? (future kidnapped Conservative)
