Sorry just wanted to check: you don’t support deportation under any circumstances?

To be clear: I absolutely don’t agree with what ICE is doing and the abhorrent treatment of migrants in many parts of the world. I’m also not American so please keep in mind that context.

But what about someone who overstays a tourist visa and is then continuously committing violent crimes? After they’ve served their sentence, what should happen to them?

If you can’t deport them, then should they get a resident permit? Citizenship? If they don’t then they’ll just be in the country without the required documentation to work and reside there legally and will likely return to crime to survive.

I’m genuinely asking because though “no deportations under any circumstances” sounds admirable, I think you’ll quite quickly run into some big problems.

Not to mention how appealing a country with this policy would become for human traffickers. Then it wouldn’t matter if you’re a refugee or a gang member, just get across the border and you will never have to leave.

Again, fuck ICE and all brutal regimes throughout the world. I just think that abolishing any and all deportations would open up a whole other can of worms and there are surely better ways to protect migrants.

Agree 100%. The tapioca ones have a nice, almost gelatinous texture that I find very satisfying.

Haha yeah I don’t really ever buy snacks or drinks at the cinema. Where I live they’re not allowed to check your bag or pockets, so as long as what you’re bringing in is not visible there is nothing they can do (and honestly I don’t think anyone working there even cares).
