man you know I heard about this one illegal immigrant by the name of Stephan Miller. It would take too long to go thought the due process to verify it however. I guess ICE better just pick him up and deport him to a 3rd world country without checking if Im right.
Even if it were true, it's *still* not a reason to abandon due process! Hire more judges, clerks, etc, if the system is too backed up. If one person can be denied due process, then nobody is safe. Nobody.
Due process is worth dying and killing for. It's just too damn important to a free society. Instant justice is like cocaine. Sure it feels good; but it destroys you body mind and soul.
Counterpoint: treason and sedition trials will be too slow for the leadership who violated the constitution. We'll skip right to the standard punishment for treason and they can appeal afterword....
As long as we can throw them in the stocks for a while first, with a nice big barrel of rancid tomatoes standing by for anybody walking past. If they feel so inclined.
And how do they know that those people are undocumented if there's no due process? They're out there scooping people up like the garbage trucks in Soylent Green.
That's the whole point. It allows them to go after anyone. Due process was there to prevent them from doing that. And they signaled many times that it's what they intend to do.
Anybody know how to find protests near me? My letters to my congresspeople fall on deaf ears. I'd love to do SOMETHING but I'm in a slightly blue town in a very red state and I can't seem to find events.
The whole point of ignoring due process is to facilitate the disappearing of legal immigrants or anyone else they want to disappear for any reason. I'm gonna let you imagine who white supremacists and other fascists are gonna go after but I'm gonna give you a hint. Who do they hate? Who are they scapegoating? Who are they always trying to go after? Who call them out and resist them? The list is longer than you think. Read "First they came". The pattern is known as "salami slicing".
Whether they call you libtard, woke, degenerate, extremist, terrorist, tankie, loser, sucker, etc. you're likely on that list. Maybe not all for deportation but all will feel the weight of their economic oppression and other forms of authoritarian crimes and abuse. If you don't already feel it, then you're lucky but don't worry, it's coming.
I am all for legal immigrants, but a ultra long process allows people to abuse the system. And I'm not okay with anyone, rich or poor abusing the system.

It's not simply an abuse of power. It is illegal and unconstitutional.

And the vast majority of them don't have 34 felonies on their records, either.

sure... lets just skip due process with all magas and send them all to the gallows

That's a very MAGA sentiment.

Then they should be fine with it.
wandermanspacebot
But we shouldn't.

Yeah in some cases it DOES take a long time. That's why dems tried to hire more immigration judges, which were blocked by Republicans.
Loctavius
Yep. IDGAF if it takes 50 years. They are entitled to due process.
