Why aren't liberals standing up and fighting for the liberals that bribed college admission officers? After all, these people just allegedly broke the law so that their children can have a better life. Liberals make the argument all the time that an illegal immigrant paying a coyote to help them illegally cross the border so that their children have a better life shouldn't be illegal.
Okay, if your comments were just related to the recent court decision a week ago or so, then I will direct my reply to that. You were asking why the U.S. was voluntarily detaining them rather than just kicking them out. But my reply to that builds upon the same point I made in the other reply....ie. the government does not have the authority to just boot them out. Illegals coming out of prison or jail or having committed crimes are still entitled to deportation hearing. The law may say that the government can legally deport criminals so the government is in a good position but it does not allow the government to bypass a hearing requested by the defendant/deportee and the government often wants a hearing too to establish a record for the defendant because it is a crime to re-enter after the first offense, etc. The issue in the recent case was around whether the illegal was entitled to a bond hearing to determine whether he might be eligible for release on bond rather than being in detention while awaiting the deportation. The Court ruled that the government could detain without a bond hearing (based on interpretation of the statute) but they did not rule that the government could just boot the illegal out without a hearing on the underlying deportation issue. So the government wanted the illegal detained because he/she might skip if a judge allowed a bond hearing (which the 9th circus said he was entitled to but lost on appeal). Like that. I guess. Of course there are a lot of criminals who are booted out/escorted out immediately because the illegal waives his rights, does not request a hearing, and wants to get the hell out and go back home, wherever that is. But that is a different fact scenario.
OK but you could have saved me some time and just said: "The Court ruled that the government could detain without a bond hearing (based on interpretation of the statute) but they did not rule that the government could just boot the illegal out without a hearing on the underlying deportation issue"
This could all be solved if when caught we turned them around 180 degrees, give'em a bottle of water and say, enjoy your walk back.
