Are you thinking about the guy the politicians are meeting with, that jumped the border and has two separate domestic violence cases? Agreed that somebody isn’t seeing the full picture here.



No, I'm thinking specifically about the student that was abducted off the street and terrorized. But you bring up another good example of immigrant cruelty. I'm aware of the context you mention, but that doesn't change the fact that with what they're doing, they are highlighting and putting on full display the level of cruelty they are willing to engage in as they wield power.

It's only a matter of time before that level of depravity is directed at American citizens on American soil.

Also I thought you were going to bow out of this discussion?


> that was abducted off the street and terrorized

I bet that didn't happen. Someone on a visa probably waved a Hamas flag or told people how they can support Hamas and then had their visa appropriately yanked. I have no idea, I just know BS when I read it.

Edit: oh you're the same person from the other thread. Figures.


So worse than seeing edited news, you're not even seeing the news at all.


No. I see so many cases of people falsely claiming people were kidnapped and didn’t violate the terms of their visas I see the pattern.


I guess you haven't seen this case then, although it's been all over the news and HN: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detention_of_Rümeysa_Öztürk

This kind of display terrorizing force directed at normal people for exercising their speech is exactly the kind of excessive force that autistic people are hypervigilant about. We can see they started doing this first to illegal immigrants, then they moved on to legal residents, then they moved to citizens like US citizen immigration attorneys and the us-born children of migrants. If this trajectory holds, they will eventually turn on actual US citizens as a whole.
