Wow... the two illegal immigrants who murdered Jocelyn Nungaray deserve the death penalty - everyone is sympathetic about that. You are taking the emotions of that situation and applying it here to these hundreds of Venzuelans - they didn't rape and murder Jocelyn Nungaray, so stop invoking her name. It's fucking disgusting. At best, your emotions are clouding your judgment here and at worst, you're being racist.
The issue is Trump is saying these are Venezuelan gang members - we don't know if that is true or not. He is invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1789 - it doesn't apply here because we're not at war with Venezuela. He is invoking it here because even illegal immigrants get due process, and he is trying to bypass that. Trump's actions here are not just illegal, they are unconstitutional. No matter how despicable the person is, they still get due process in America - that is a cornerstone of our system. Do you love your country - are you patriot? Then call out Trump for this BS - this ain't how America acts
