His Family Voted to Support Trump's Deportation Plan. That Includes Him. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/15/u ... I suspect this is the reality for more than a few people. The "other" is now part of your own family.

Interesting dilemma. Interesting story. But how could he possibly vote himself out of the country?

Undocumented residents are not allowed to vote.

And DACA recipients are not eligible to vote.

Re 6.

For President. They are not eligible to vote for President. Some are allowed to vote in local elections but that does not apply here.

"Does he get a trump bible as a parting gift when he's deported?"

His parting gift will be free room and board at a concentration camp for an indeterminate period of time while he waits, perhaps for many months under less than minimum conditions, among millions of others, some of whom are foreign born (or U.S born children of foreign born) and naturalized U.S. citizens.

Rounding up and deporting millions of people isn't as simple as lining up airplanes on a tarmac. These people could be held, incognito, for months or even years, waiting for their number to come up.

In short, it's going to be a human rights disaster that the Trump administration will do everything in their power to hide from public scrutiny.

Require vaccinations

Why? We can't even get actual citizens born here to take vaccines anymore, cuz "freedumbz"

"Could we screen the migrants for diseases and criminal records? Require vaccinations?
Or would that be too much to ask?"

Good idea! We should deport native born americans who refuse vaccinations. As for the country, we can pick whatever ancestry is the highest percentage of their makeup. If it is native American, off to the reservation.

How about if we just deport the 13000 known murderers? Still a problem?

These "murderers" broke American laws and should serve out their sentences in the US. They should not be released to their country of origin to engage freely with other members of society. In any event, their country of origin probably won't accept them after they have served their sentences. If their country of origin won't take them back, then what? A life time of incarceration? Seems a bit inhumane and a source of trouble for people having to guard "inmates" that have lost all hope.

Can we screen mags maroons for diseases make their criminal records public and require them to have vaccination?

Why do you MAGAts insist on treating one human being different from another? Citizens and immigrants are both under the jurisdiction of the United States and protection of the constitution in that they are entitled to the exact same civil rights and protections.

Is upholding our basic American creed that hold that this truth to be self evident ... all men are created equal ... is that too much to ask?

Apparently it is for some.

Because we have laws.

Fake news.

I guess this guy's friends don't really like him. Nor do his family members. Let's see where he lands--Yemen, Montenegro, Pakistan? Someplace where he doesn't speak the language, has no clothing to fit the climate, and no charitable or governmental support. Yep, the really 'Christian' thing to do.

For I was a stranger and you deported me...

You can't fix stupid, but you can deport it.

The way it was wrote seems to indicate he voted, but I don't think that was the way it was intended. I believe it was meant they didn't think about how they were voting and who it affected.

They will take them back as they are citizens of that country. The problem in the past that started all this was under we didn't tell them they were murders or other criminals or that they were gang members. That was the origin of MS13 for example. But in truth the start of all the gang problems in central America period.

meant to drop "was under"...
