• Illegal Deporations

    From Mike Powell@1:2320/105 to AARON THOMAS on Sat Apr 26 10:56:00 2025
    It is unspecific because I don't remember the guys name. His case has been on the TV news (60 Minutes and more recently regular news) off and on since the mass deportation to El Salvador even occurred. His attorney was interview and she is real.

    Everything looks real on TV, but believe me, Mr Ed doesn't really talk, and Al
    isn't really from Melmac.

    What does this have to do with Mr. Ed or Alf?

    That's so iffy because it's not illegal to be gay in El Salvador. Sound
    the media is trying to conflate homosexuality laws of Nigeria with any country
    that the TV view doesn't reside in.

    Try being a young homosexual in a supermax facility overflowing with criminals and gang members.

    Prison is too inhumane for gay men? Where should they go when they break the law then?

    If they are tried and found guilty, most certainly not. If they are just rounded up, before their trial date, and sent to a maximum security
    facility with little hope of getting out... that is inhumane to anyone
    and is why we didn't used to do that here in the USA.

    Back when Obama was President, they did a drone strike on a New Mexico born
    US citizen in Yemen. He was executed without trial. A lot of people, especially Republicans, seemed to know that extrajudiciary actions, even against *potential terrorists*, was wrong then. Why is it OK now?

    If they are really gang members or terrorists, let's try them. If they are found guilty of doing things that are bad enough, give them the chair.
    What is wrong with this?

    They should have apprehended the guy and held him in custody until a court dat
    could be set. At least our pal Abrigo isn't facing the same fate.

    You didn't actually answer the question... why is it OK now?

    That is what they should be doing now. If they have to round them all up and send them somewhere "because they are all rapists and terrorists," send them to GITMO to await trial.

    You would still get the enjoyment of watching lefties throw fits, but
    people like me would be satisfied that they are getting tried, that they
    will be punished for their crimes, *and* can be deported, or sent back, if our authorities f*cked up and arrested the wrong person.

    Either way, the US is paying to have them held, so no one can point at it
    with a straight face and claim any cost savings.

    But nobody's rounding-up gay men, are they?

    I hope not. Our hair appointment is next week. We would need to reschedule. :)

    Joke aside: My wife and I get our hair done at the same time. She gets the full treatment and I get a simple hair cut while her hair is "soaking". But our beautician is a gay guy who is really nice.

    I doubt that there are any gay American men scared of being "rounded up and sent to prison." I forgot how that conversation got started but at this point it is making me laugh.

    First it was "immigrants" being deported and now this. The media is having fun with some of our fido friends.

    Because Biden let too many of them in all at once. It was a historic, unprecedented illegal immigrant importation event. To try to correct it, Trump has been promising since day 1 of his campaign to lead a historic, unprecedented illegal immigrant deportation event.

    Maybe it's not legal, but maybe what Biden did wasn't legal either. At this point, the law can not be relied on to clean up the mess than Biden made.

    Either way, the US is paying to have them held, so no one can point at it with a straight face and claim any cost savings.

    This isn't to save money, this is to save lives.

    The media is just spinning false Narratives to see which one will "stick". They are getting frustrated when none of them do.
