You'll want to put a flange on the end to avoid a trip to the hospital.

Hey, knock it off.

Please explain in detail.

Why does anyone care about border laws so much? Given all the problems in this world, it seems like such a stupid thing to make a voting decision about. Especially for such a morally repugnant person as Trump.
In what world does it make sense to completely overturn a functioning society over some poor people taking menial and backbreaking jobs that citizens don’t want?

Wanting to care for one’s pets doesn’t make one a “pussy.”
otterley
No it doesn’t. The order, which is the only part that matters, is ambiguous.

There’s nothing wrong with your opinion, but that’s not current law. If you want it to be the law, contact your congressperson. We mustn’t violate our constitution to get the outcomes we seek.

Section II(a) of the memo mentions El Salvador multiple times. Unfortunately the final order at the bottom is ambiguous about which country the withholding order applied to.

The judges didn’t find anything. They deferred to the government’s declaration that he was a member based solely on some CI’s statement.
otterley
Neither court did such a thing. Where are you getting all this from?
In both cases the immigration courts said they had to defer to the Government’s declaration that he was believed to be a gang member. No trial was held and no evidence presented. It was all based on a confidential informant’s statement and the CI remains anonymous and the defendant never got to face the accuser. And in immigration court, unlike criminal trials, it’s the immigrant’s burden to prove he is not a gang member. How do you prove you’re not something? It’s crazy law.
Can you imagine yourself in such a Kafkaesque situation?
I encourage you all to read the court filings and orders. It’s truly enraging and enraging.

Cite the case that holds that.

It’s not that simple. Under our laws and constitution, due process is a right both to citizens and non citizens.
otterley
No he didn’t.
otterley
No he wasn’t. He was not tried. The judge in his removal hearing (which is not a trial) deferred to the government who said, basically, an anonymous informant (who was never confronted) told them that he was an MS-13 member. That’s the only “evidence” in this case. And the appellate judge refused to overrule the lower judge because, in an odd twist of law, in removal cases, it’s the immigrant’s burden to show that the government’s claim is wrong, and that in this case, he had to prove he is not a gang member. How do you prove a negative?
You should read the actual paper trail in this case. It should be highly upsetting to anyone who believes in due process and rule of law.

You’re struggling much too hard to avoid answering the question. Plus, you’re being an asshole while doing it.
People should be advised of your position so that they know you’re paid to manipulate conversation and opinion in favor of your principal’s views.

You’re thinking of the New York Post. The Times is much more liberal leaning.

Between 2002 and 2017, they said “Taxation without representation”

Perhaps the commenter was being a little overdramatic.
In general I find the attitude of “love it or leave it” to be quite troubling because it implies America is some fixed culture that doesn’t or can’t change. Our history has demonstrated otherwise and in fact our system is designed to accommodate change, from the constitutional amendment process all the way down to the direct-voter initiative process.
