From Quin Hillyer at the Washington Examiner:
President Trump’s renewed pledge to deport huge numbers of illegal
immigrants is inspiring anger, but it's hardly righteous. If, as a Homeland
Security adviser has explained, the targets of Trump’s deportation
plans will be those illegal immigrants who have failed to show for their
assigned court hearings, then Trump is morally, ethically, and legally
justified in deporting them. The tut-tutting chorus might as well spare us
their faux moral histrionics.
The immigrants Trump is targeting are people
who have broken American law not once but twice. First, they entered the
country illegally, without papers. Second, when given a court hearing (where
they could, for example, make bids for asylum or otherwise make a case for
being allowed to stay), they again thumbed their noses at the legitimate
authority of their generous hosts. Such poor guests deserve no sympathy, no
matter what circumstances they came from.
Full report is here.
