Uh oh.

So then you are not arguing that Abrego is a MS-13 member, as the two federal judges determined during his months of receiving his due process, when they decided he should be deported as a member of MS-13. And, that after that portion of his due process, his lawyer in the due process process petitioned for, and was granted protection as a gang member, because.... if returned to his country would be in danger from opposing gangs. I guess your argument is that his due process was not completed when he was deported....is that fair?
Is he still commenting to me?

Nor is carrying ‘large amount of cash’; just ask Kristi Noem about that one.
These sorts of things can’t bother you too much if you’re happy to vote in as President a man with 34 fraud convictions, who has also been in court for sexual abuse and housing discrimination. You still idolize that guy. : D
Dude: he was literally deported to a country to which it was not legal to send him. That's not an argument -- it's just a fact.
Markk doesn't know what due process is or how to apply it in this case. True fact.Bret Ripley wrote: ↑Sun May 04, 2025 12:47 amDude: he was literally deported to a country to which it was not legal to send him. That's not an argument -- it's just a fact.
There is no question that his rights were violated. The only reason this is an issue at all is that we have folks -- a group that unfortunately seems to include you -- who think that certain classes of people are undeserving of the rights enjoyed by "our" class of people. Arguments about why this is OK based on speculation about Garcia's character -- regardless of whether those speculations are correct or not -- are just excuses as to why you think it's OK to ignore the rule of law as a matter of convenience. Not to put too fine a point on it, it is inescapably immoral.
He is a citizen of El Salvador, and was deported to El Salvador, I think you have MS-13 mixed up with TDA.Bret Ripley wrote: ↑Sun May 04, 2025 12:47 amDude: he was literally deported to a country to which it was not legal to send him. That's not an argument -- it's just a fact.

Nope, not arguing that he is or is not a gang member. Not only has that not been ‘proven’, but there is no federal law against being a gang member anyway.
There was no definitive conclusion by judges.… as the two federal judges determined during his months of receiving his due process,
Except that it has never been definitively proven that he is a member of any gang.… when they decided he should be deported as a member of MS-13.
Yes, that happened.And, that after that portion of his due process, his lawyer in the due process process petitioned for, and was granted protection…
No part of the order mentions anything about gang status. Not that it would have mattered; the Feds can’t arrest you for ‘being a gang member’.… as a gang member,
Gangs in general, perhaps. If you don’t knuckle under to what a gang wants, they may kill you. Seems that he’d be pretty safe in El Salvador as a member of a gang because his fellow homies would help protect him and his family. Maybe he wasn’t actually in a gang, then?…if returned to his country would be in danger from opposing gangs.
My argument is that we should not ignore due process and court orders for temporary stays because of the need to score political points with a certain rabid portion of the voting population that thinks that immigrants are always bad and the cause of all of our problems.I guess your argument is that his due process was not completed when he was deported....is that fair?
You don't know what you are talking about. You might consider fixing that.Markk wrote: ↑Sun May 04, 2025 3:32 amHe is a citizen of El Salvador, and was deported to El Salvador, I think you have MS-13 mixed up with TDA.Bret Ripley wrote: ↑Sun May 04, 2025 12:47 amDude: he was literally deported to a country to which it was not legal to send him.

It is how and to where he was deported that make it immoral, not the bare fact that he was deported. Was it lost on you that the administration immediately admitted it was a mistake?What is immoral, in your opinion, about deporting Garcia?
I didn't say deporting illegal immigrants is immoral. In fact, I'm sure there are perfectly moral ways to deport illegal immigrants.What is Immoral about deporting any illegal immigrant?
Of course not. What a silly thing to suggest.The larger question is, are borders immoral in your opinion?
