      Carlos was in the US legally. He followed the rules, entering the US under a government asylum program.

      “He came to the U.S. from Venezuela in November through CBP One, a mobile app created by the federal government used by asylum seekers to schedule an appointment in the U.S.-Mexico border. Migrants who secured an appointment were allowed in the country temporarily while they await their immigration hearing.”

        Shit happens during major change, the important part is that change is happening in a positive direction.

          A leaked memo from the DOJ has them approving the death penalty for people without papers and that’s a positive direction to you?

          My concern ends at the illegal entry part, past that whatever happens is the consequences of their actions.

          gets informed person was here legally

          Shit happens

          Uh huh. So the comment you made only minutes prior about your concern ending at the illegal entry part was a lie. It looks like your concern ends when it’s affecting non-white people.

      It doesn’t fucking matter. Illegal or legal, they do not deserve to be sent to Gitmo. Nobody deserves to be sent there.

      Or are you somehow arguing that concentration camps are fine, for some people. Then let’s hope you don’t belong to a group that becomes the other in the future.

      And apparently they also arrest legal immigrants now. So eh… well done, I guess.

      You know they’re being put in Gitmo, right? The place where the worst of the worst terrorists are supposed to go? You’re okay with that? That’s the level of crime you think they’ve committed?
