Nurul Amin Shah Alam crossed oceans to flee unimaginable violence, only to die here -- where he should have been safe. The cruelty is endless.

Those CBP monsters may as well have dropped off the blind man in a busy six-lane highway.

"Hey old man, you're free!"

If my soldiers did this to a detainee that we released, they would be court-martialed.

No humanity, compassion, or empathy for their fellow man.

It's called "murder."
Remember, Yale Law's most prideful DEI grad says the regime's thugs get "absolute immunity,"
Sieg effin heil.

This is what an out of control unaccountable junta looks like.

No compassion or shred of decency.

ICE needs to be destroyed because it's clear that Pamnesia or Krusty will not hold them accountable for their actions.

I can't imagine the fear that poor man felt.

Blind,no English,nowhere to keep warm.

What "crime" was he Accused of?

Worst of the Worst?

I hate what Trump is Revealing about our Country.

The Depth of it's Nihlism and Malice..

Is there proof he wasn't dead before they tossed his corpse out into the streets?

Hi Clownshack

The Buffalo PD and forensics examiners are looking at that.

They probably beat him to death before realizing his identification identified him as blind.

*** Border Patrol Agents Left Blind Man Outside the Coffee Shop, Not Inside it ***

"Border Patrol agents left a partially blind refugee who spoke little English in the parking lot of a Buffalo coffee shop the night of 19 Feb shortly before the man disappeared, according to security camera footage reviewed. He was found dead five days later."

What was the exact testimony of the BP agents as to where they left this poor guy?

Man's inhumanity to man.

1) You know that you're losing. A sidebar into sadism is always a sign.

2) You also know that the only way that Trump can win in November is to steal the election in an open coup, and you are already considering what system of lies you will use to support that coup while hiding the shame you feel at surrendering your genitals and pride as an American to that effing pedophile.

It's all about being the "Cool Kids".

This Whole Thing is High, or Really, Middle School, level thinking.

Punks.

... Usurping Powers from the People in the Name of "Security".

Moneyed Interests Dominating the "Little People" with their own Connivance in many Cases. How Stupid is THAT?

It's really that simple. Hitler would Approve. Germany had no history of self government.

America has Centuries of Representive Goverment.

The Founders of this Country would Fight Them.

No doubt in my Mind.

Where are the Patriots?

We went from "blind" in the headline to "nearly blind" in the article. Plus, he was dropped off at a coffee shop after being released from, jail.

He should have been taken Home or allowed to call someone to pick him up.

Just dumping a disoriented and Diabled Man in a Parking Lot in Frigid Weather had foreseeable negative consequences.

It was Callous indifference to his obvious need for assistance.

You know this.

If your Mother,Your Brother,Your Father were dumped like trash to Die? Would you still defend the people who did it?

You defend this because you have lost your Humanity.

Because you accept Trump's Framing of some Lives as of little or No Value.

I mean this very Sincerely.

FUCK OFF NAZI TRASH.

YOU SHAME THIS COUNTRY.

Why not take the man home?

You're not fully human.

There's no way this forgives anything except in that nasty universe you live in.

This man should be alive now

If he was fully blind you'd have sympathy. But having any sight at all means he deserves to be left to die.

No he wouldn't.

He doesn't care this person needlessly died.

He's simply looking for any excuse to display what a deplorable person he is.

You see, the victim was "nearly" blind and was dropped off at a coffee shop. So no sympathy required. It was the coffee shop's responsibility to make sure he got home safely.

I don't know about y'all, but I am shocked that lfthndcuck would come here and excuse this!

It's no not him to be a giant bigoted pile of s*&^.

Imagine that guy's response if a bunch of illegals had kidnapped some white 18 year old girl, dropped her off at a random place and she was found dead a while later...
