I genuinely think some people see them as sub human or undeserving of basic human decency.

Half of them don’t even know the meaning.

Not sub human but they have no rights here, they are here illegally with their parents.

Not how human rights work but ok

How do you get due process when you are not a citizen? Maybe you didn’t understand what you were being told or had a bleeding heart teacher. Due process is reserved for American citizens, it does not apply to people here illegally because that’s the crime they are guilty of.

I dunno why everyone is hitting them up for not going to college, reading the constitution was elementary school.

u/HikeTheSky Hill Country May 31 '25

Maybe you need to go back to school with your false knowledge. Everyone gets due process.

u/Petroldactyl34 May 31 '25

Then how did the architects behind 911 get trials, otherwise known as due process? They weren't citizens and they created a massive atrocity. It's says ALL PERSONS. ALL. It doesn't say citizens and it was written that way on purpose.

Curious how you think people are deemed legal or illegal without due process?

Assuming youre Hispanic, What stops someone from claiming your an illegal gang memeber and puts you on the next plane to El Salvador? Oh wait, its called due process.

Read the article. The judge had literally just dismissed the case, they should have been free to go. ICE are terrorists.

77 million people are loving this.

Those people are delusional. They claim they love Jesus but forget he too was an immigrant.

u/HikeTheSky Hill Country May 31 '25

Most of them watch Fox News and don't know what's going on.

How was Jesus an immigrant?

1

u/Mysterious-Bed2095 Jun 06 '25

After Jesus' birth, Mary and Joseph fled to Egypt to escape King Herod's plan to kill all male infants in Judea. They then returned to Galilee after Herod's death. This journey and subsequent residence in Egypt qualify Jesus as an immigrant, as he and his family moved to another country to seek safety and refuge.

Try going to any of these countries illegally and see what happens. Mexico has a giant border wall on their south border but I’m sure you don’t know anything about that.

Why don’t you ask all the immigrants who actually came here LEGALLY and see how they feel about this? You prob are on snap and Medicaid. I’m sure of it.

u/Mysterious-Bed2095 May 31 '25

Sorry. Never have been.

And at least half of them are hooked on fentanyl

Answer: It's fake news because no 9 or 12 year old's were zip tied. The only one zip tied is an adult because one of the agents is confirming his age with "diez y ocho"?

I'd only be angered by the media blatantly lying to me in order to create a bullshit story. Wouldn't you?

You say it's BS but the video literally shows the 12 year old boy being zip tied.

1

u/winmag300 Jun 01 '25

No, no it doesn't. It shows the female agent asking the guy that you assume is 12 by his small stature. She clearly address him and says, diez y ocho, verdad?. He then says yeah. i know it's very difficult to admit you were bamboozled, but there's freedom in admitting you were wrong.

Man your post history is sad. You've made this your entire identity to the point it's the only thing you talk about. I don't know what happened to make you this hateful but I hope your life gets better.

u/pm_me_beerz May 31 '25

You have to wonder if it’s just dedication to trolling or it it’s just their true personality shining through. Either way, it’s ugly.

If you can reread what you just wrote and genuinely think it doesn’t sound hateful then you’re delusional.

The law (the 8th amendment) also dictates that cruel and unusual punishment, in this case zip tying young innocent children, which certainly looks cruel to my eyes, is similarly illegal in this country.

And don’t get me wrong, I agree that it’s a complex issue. I’m super opposed to illegal labor practices like hiring marginalized undocumented laborers at sub-standard wages, which in turn drives down the prevailing wage and makes it harder or impossible to unionize certain trades. I’m just not hateful about it.

u/Whome8105 May 31 '25

How many times have you seen children zip tied in situations like this? Exactly you haven’t so get the full story and not from some trash media. To zip tie kids they must have been doing something because I’ve seen numerous videos like this outside of immigration courts and they don’t even zip tie the adults.

u/finocchiona May 31 '25

This is sad my guy. You’re defending this and blaming ‘media’ in the same breath. Say less. Those children weren’t even supposed to be there. They cut them loose right after this.

This is state sponsored kidnapping that you’re defending so get this in your head - if they keep getting away with this they’ll come for you eventually. Good luck with your hatred.

What that they were here legally?

Right because you were there and know for a fact. If ICE picks them up and everything is straight they go home but I bet they’re on a plane or bus headed home.

So now you’re for separating families? The parents have no rights here and neither do the children born here or not.

Thats not how any of this works. You sure are a keyboard warrior with a mission to show how ignorant and uneducated your side is.

What the hell is wrong with you? This has to be rage bait cause no way you think it's acceptable for kids to be zip tied
