Generally we send illegal El Salvadorans back to… El Salvador. Their own country. This isn’t rocket science. |
OK... He (or his pupusa business) may have been targeted by the gangs when he was in El Salvador. But he then crossed Guatemala, Mexico, and possibly even Belize before he came to the US. So then that becomes an economic migration and not a "I am afraid for my life" case... unless the anti-pupuseria gangs were pursuing him into Guatemala and Mexico. He is back where he should be. |
Not when it is illegal to do so. This isn't rocket science. Kristi Noem, Rubio, the whole Trump Administration is breaking the law. To CECOT with them all! YOU support them breaking the law? Now see, I believe that the First Amendment protects you and I will protest to protect you, even though I don't like you. But if Trump had his way, you homegrown you, it would be off to CECOT with you too! |
I don’t care at all about this specific guy and think his domestic issues alone are enough to convince me he’s a terrible person.
But that is not the point. The law is the point. And the law was clearly and repeatedly violated here with his removal. And it’s shocking how many people are defending that. |
I’m talking about US, you dimwit. What country are we living in, that sends people to foreign gulags without trials? Certainly not the USA. |
He was a young teen when he left. His parents tried moving multiple times to avoid the gangs, and eventually sent him to live with his brother in the US. |
Now you've lost the plot. Europe doesn't like economic migrants. We do. We support refugees but we also were built by economic migrants. Most Americans descend from, or are, economic migrants. It's who we are. |
What’s even crazier is that we are sending Venezuelans to prison in El Salvador. This isn’t “deportation”—it’s rendition. And it’s been done outside of the required constitutional parameters. As the Supreme Court concluded. The defenders of this policy are pretty sick. |
DP. The Salvadorans on Garcia’s flight did not have criminal records nor were they charged with anything. Why were they sent straight to a prison? If it was a matter of just repatriating them, they could have been released at the main airport in El Salvador. Being an undocumented migrant in the US does not make you “illegal” in El Salvador. |
Bukele is the president and wants him in prison because he thinks he has MS-13 ties. They are way more hardcore about eradicating gangs and crime than we are here and Bukele has the results to back it up. He took ES from one of the most dangerous countries in the world to a relatively safe country in the span of several years. |
Again, the issue is not THAT these people were deported - an argument could be made that deportation is ultimately justified - the issue is HOW it was done. It was conducted illegally and in defiance of the law and the judiciary. We don’t need to analyze the character of these men to acknowledge the illegality of the situation. Some of you just don’t agree with laws and want to ignore them. |
There were 23 Salvadorans, including Abrego Garcia, on his flight. None of them received due process so the only “evidence” of gang membership or any other wrongdoing was the say-so of American authorities. 90% of the individuals on that flight had no U.S. criminal record beyond immigration or traffic violations. So basically one dictator sent a plain full of people to another dictator’s jail and neither dictator gave them due process. |
Generally we (the US Government) follows the US Constitution, federal laws of the United States and Federal Court orders. This isn't rocket science. |
By now it should be obvious to us that MAGA don’t believe in following the constitution. Period. |
No criminal record except……. lol. That’s like saying your spouse never cheated, other than that one time. |
