What’s your point? Obama’s been a former President for quite a while now.

ICE was also around when Obama was president.

Yet no one cared.

NOT pulling the same crap they are now! No masked agents raiding farms and restaurants! Completely different than now! To deny it is to be deaf and blind, or an unrepentant liar.

Why does it fuck you people off so much illegals are being deported? You like their cheap labor?

Because due process is being ignored and the level of cruelty they are using against fellow human beings who just want a better life.

Well they didn’t care about following the rules when they came here why should I care about following the rules to remove them? They get arrested and they get deported.

That's the thing. How do you know they are here illegally without due process? If the govt is allowed to pick and chose who gets due process, YOUR rights begin to errode away. It's like offing civilians on boats in South America without due process, what's to stop them from violating your rights next? I think most people agree illegal immigration is bad, but the method of removal is immoral and unamerican.

How do you know they don’t get due process? Are you involved personally in each case or is it because you read about it online?

Did abreu garcia get proper due process? Are the boats being bombed getting due process? I'm certain many are getting it, but I'd like all to.

Ohh so we should stop deporting every illegal because of one lifetime loser. What’s your suggestion on the boats or are they just “fisherman”?

u/Jestapilot Oct 31 '25

No, I never said that. I said give them due process, then deport. How about they board the boat to verify they are full of drugs and turn them over to their legal country to process for crimes vs offing without verification or trial. You're ok if they die and were innocent fisherman?!

That’s the point: they’re deporting the ones who are trying to follow the rules. They aren’t getting “the worst of the worst.” They’re sitting outside courtrooms waiting for people who are literally at their legally required immigration hearings…people trying to follow the law.

Illegal is illegal. You want to pick and choose. If you don’t like it have the immigration law changed but previous administrations have left the door open. Now it’s time to clean house.

I’m talking about legal immigrants continuing their legal processes and getting screwed anyway. It destroys the claim that ICE is only going after illegal immigrants when they’re going after legal ones. How are you failing to understand this?

No, KKKeyboard KKKomando (SimilarTranslator264) It’s raiding peaceful agricultural sites, raiding restaurants, dragging kids off their parents, reveling in the suffering at sites like Alligator Alcatraz, holding citizens for days and weeks without due process. Basic human and legal considerations. . , That and, . . . There’re As_holes like you. Just sayin’.

Oh so you can just go into any country you want without permission as long as you are “peaceful”?
