I was obviously referring to the people commenting.You have no basis upon which to make that claim.
You have no basis upon which to make that claim.
None of us has any idea what the problem actually is, so dismissing it as a "paperwork error" is not justified.
There are plenty of people across the country who are in jail for reasons unknown to me and for which I have no evidence to support. Why aren't you bitching about them, too?
Not one of us has the first clue what "paperwork error" means. You keep ignoring this.
"You dont know the reason" =/= "there is no reason."
Looks like making up bullshit is how you've decided to spend your Sunday.
This is why the forum exists, is it not?
I haven't "sided" with anyone.
You still refuse to acknowledge that you don't have any ****ing clue what the problem really is.
When you're in a hole, stop digging. Smart.
But it is quite fascist.
AND it took the government 10 years to notice. Maybe call it even? Let the guy file it now? Does 10 years as a responsible resident count for nothing? Does it make any sense to haul him away from his family? For a movement that claims to hate government bureaucracy, MAGA sure prefers paper-pushing over common sense and humanity on certain issues.
I’m surprised you didnt hear “No one is above the law…” echoing in your ears as you typed that.
No idea what "paperwork error" means but what it doesn't mean is that the man is a felon, a danger to society or a flight risk so there is no reason to detain him.
That right there is a hanging offense.
Does the law require ICE to haul the guy away to a different jurisdiction and tell his family nothing?
What the law requires is that you submit your forms and applications no later than the deadline proscribed by said law or else you are ineligible and subject to detention and removal.
If it turns out that ICE is not required by law to arrest and incarcerate this individual, will you concede that the agency's behavior is just dickish and cruel and WRONG?
Absolutely not. He been flaunting the law for 10 years and deserves to be detained pending deportation.
Evidence that he was "flaunting the law"?
You mean flouting the law, not flaunting. To flout means to disregard openly, knowingly. Do you have evidence that he knew he was missing the form? And if not, why would you assume he was? Remember, these people had not retained an immigration attorney.
Ignorance of the law is not a defense and it is his responsibility to know. There is no question here that he didn’t do it. There is no question here that he didn’t even attempt to remedy that for 10 years. So what follows is entirely his fault.
Putting up straw men is a ineffective deflection from the question I keep asking. I didn't say any of things above. What I'm saying is that, unless mandated by law, ICE's response to the situation was draconian and brutal. No public purpose is served by incarcerating this individual pending a resolution, and it comes a great personal expense to him and his family. But apparently you enjoy the infliction of misery?
Why do you lie about things that are so readily disproved? He's been following instructions throughout, showing up every year as scheduled. He was there for his Naturalization interview. DHS has acknowledged this.
False. What is readily proved is that he did not submit Form I-751 by his deadline of 2015 as required by law and did nothing to remedy that in the 10 years since. He’s guilty. And he’ll pay the price.
"I don't know what this means, but I'm totally competent to tell you what it means!"
