      It’s not an apt comparison.

      It is not sending a random person to a random country.

      It is sending a citizen of that country back to their country.

      One can agree or disagree with doing it, but it isn’t a random person being sent to a random country.

      If we want to get particular, it is the right thing to do under international law.

          The country of their origin and citizenship. You don’t identify as an American; you ARE an American.

          They were not born here, and their parents were not citizens. They are not citizens of American.

          If they are deported, they are being sent back to their rightful country. The one that can issue them a passport.

              Your parents were not citizens? You didn’t serve in the military ?

              Yes it is the law that determines citizenship. Not identifying.

              They are not citizens. They are citizens of somewhere else. When we deport them. That’s where we need to end them under the law.

                Which is funny, because these folks are probably more American than I am.
