Your first article immediately says that the government is investigating and other articles point out the man was found carrying cocaine.
Your second article points out that someone was arrested on suspicion of a crime and will go on to face a judicial process to establish innocence or guilt.
If you think those two cases are comparable to the two I provided, I'm not sure we can have a productive discussion on this matter, especially considered you entirely ignored the second point of my post.
- YZF 2y agoWhich of your points have I ignored exactly? You're ignoring my point which is that similar things happen all over the world all the time and without any comparative data they are just anecdotes. Is the Trump administration applying a different policy? Absolutely. Does that make the US materially less safe for most of us? Open question. Almost certainly not. So yes, we're not going to have a productive discussion when I am coming at things from a fact based view point and you are presenting anecdotes as being relevant.
- locopati 2y agowhat they're doing at the border now, they'll do to citizens within the country later. so, yes, this makes the US materially less safe.
- YZF 2y agoMaybe yes maybe no. We had some of this in the previous Trump presidency and despite the fear mongering we got over it. The US has plenty of checks and balances it seems (I'm not American so easy for me to say ;) ). We also had democratic governments that didn't make any material changes to what are questionable immigration practices or in some cases made things worse.
