Don’t you have to be guilty of a crime to be sent down there? For the vast majority of people who violate their visas, they simply get sent to their home count

Don’t you have to be guilty of a crime to be sent down there?
For the vast majority of people who violate their visas, they simply get sent to their home country. If you’re willing to remain in your home country out of fear of US policies, it’s very likely your home country would take you back and not disown you.
- barbazoo 1y agoLots of people being detained for extended periods of time at the Canada/US border. I wouldn’t be so optimistic unless your situation is bullet proof.
- _alternator_ 1y agoWhile it’s not typical to be sent to CECOT in El Salvador, you don’t need to be “guilty” by the government’s position. They assert the right to send people down there based on allegations that have not been tested in any court.
- mc32 1y agoIf you come here legally and don't commit a crime, they won't send you down there. If you come here legally and commit a crime, you'll get sent back to your country of origin. People being sent down there came here illegally.
- sjsdaiuasgdia 1y agoIf we discard rule of law and due process for anyone, it is threatened for everyone. They're defying courts, they're not following the law. This does not end well for anyone, at all. It is incredibly dangerous territory.
- mc32 1y agoIf you you are illegally in just about any country, being there without authorization is basis for deportation. No one is being denied due process. Moreover, you can be denied entry at ports of entry to any country for any reason by customs officials -even with a valid visa. They do not need to offer "due process."
- sjsdaiuasgdia 1y agoMr. Abrego Garcia was declared by a court to not be deportable to El Salvador, yet he was. That is not due process.
- mc32 1y agoHe’s a Salvadoran citizen illegally in the US. He gets deported. If you get into Canada or Mexico illegally, barring bribery, you will get deported. No due process is owed you.
- sjsdaiuasgdia 1y agoYou do not understand how laws and courts work.
- sjsdaiuasgdia 1y agoBy the way, you might be interested in today's Supreme Court decision. In it, the Court affirms that aliens do, in fact, have due process rights. https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24pdf/24a1007_g2bh.pdf https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24pdf/24a1007_g2bh.pdf
- fzeroracer 1y agoThis is false, both in terms of some of the people who have been sent there as well as the administration's direct stance on the matter.
- nashashmi 1y agoYou can get sent there by your affiliation. You don’t have to necessarily commit a crime. And all the administration has to do is make an accident and send you to the wrong place. The vast majority are being sent to nearby countries as well.

- mc32 1y agoAnd those guys are Salvadoran… right? Like if Mexico sends back a bunch of criminal gringos, what are we supposed to do, ask Mexico to incarcerate them for us? No we take them and put them through our system of justice and send them to the pen.
