Concentration camps get such a bad rep. The illegal aliens will be fine. They'll have food and shelter and some medical care... What a great hiring opportunity for people who were kicked out of their other government jobs. Apply now to work at the camps.
I think someone once said, Work Makes You Free.

It's also not illegal.
And? Why would anyone that has been given the privilege to study at one of our great universities disparage the US? They can just go home.

This is demonstratively not true - the government is deporting (or at least trying to deport) people to whichever countries will take them. For instance:
I was speaking generally. Is there something illegal with deporting people somewhere else?

Some go above their studies and support anti american sentiment. That’s not cool.
As I recall, the sentiments that were being expressed to trigger such a reaction were anti-Isreal, not anti-American. Israel is not America and we should not confuse the two.

It was actually pro Hamas and against the US.

What are the chances that what you term 'American sentiment' aligns perfectly with your personal views. Astonishing.

'I may not agree with what you say but...um...well, I don't agree with it and will demand that you not be able to express it.'

Is that your American sentiment?

Note: the question was hypothetical. I don't require a response to a question to which I already know the answer.

Sounds like you are confusing Israel and the US. Israel is not my country and I don't care about it.
Sounds like you are confusing Hamas and the US. Hamas is a terrorist organization and I don care about it.

If human beings are reduced to parasites, then yes you will hear comparisons to Nazis.
So you dont think there are any people who are taking advantage of the system for their own gain and are doing it dishonestly? I think people would consider the rich a parasite. Are there people who take more than they give, purposely? Are there people who come here for the benefits rhey will receive?

This is actually funny coming from some who believe a baby is a parasite

I never said otherwise. But without an official source listing the location, due process could be denied.
Then why did you mention the Constitution when referencing that you weren't being told where a detainee is being held.

You also have no idea if due process is being denied either. They dont have a official source of every hearing either or every action performed regarding a detainee.

And none of that is required by the Constitution.

Neither do I. But none of this has to do with your claimed "anti-American" sentiment from visa holders.

Concentration camps get such a bad rep. The illegal aliens will be fine. They'll have food and shelter and some medical care. And here we have MAGA becoming the big government party. They'll have to make and run all these concentration camps for huge numbers of illegals, housing and caring for them indefinitely. Why? Because they're grabbing the illegal aliens far faster than they can deport them. What a great hiring opportunity for people who were kicked out of their other government jobs. Apply now to work at the camps.
Man and I thought other posts were ridiculous. This one takes 2nd place so you'll have to be satisfied with that.

The second most idiotic for the day with its foolish insinuations.

What insinuations? I'm stating things plainly. We're arresting huge numbers of illegal aliens. The courts have been forcing ICE to go through due process. This creates a huge backlog of deportation cases. The illegal immigrants have to be stored somewhere pending trial. Holding cells. Detention centers. Concentration camps. Whatever you want to call them. These facilities have to be acquired and a workforce to operate them has to be maintained. This is pretty straightforward. Do you disagree with any of that?

I'm not against it. It's all going as expected...

You seem to oppose freedom of speech. Maybe they respect the university but despise the illegal actions of the Trump regime.

The Constitutional right to due process could be denied if people are disappeared.

I never said anything about me specifically being told; just that in a general sense the location of every single detainee must be made available in an official fashion so that due process can be verified and effectuated.
You also have no idea if due process is being denied either. They dont have a official source of every hearing either or every action performed regarding a detainee.
They should. You want people being disappeared off the books?
And none of that is required by the Constitution.
Due process is required.

I don't think the 4 year old with a fatal disease was dishonestly saying she had a fatal disease in order to get medical treatment on a humanitarian visa that was revoked.
In fact I know she wasn't.
She and her family played within the rules, and yet they were put through a nightmare likely only ended due to media attention.

This didn't come from some. It came from me. Apparently some people's feefees are hurt if you post search results, but I defy you to find that I have made such a statement. I seem to have used the word parasite 17 times (18 now) and mostly in the context of ivermectin or what Nazis say about Jews.
