In Florida, for instance, Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez, a 20-year-old citizen, was detained by Florida Highway Patrol during a traffic stop near the Georgia-Florida line. Despite presenting his birth certificate and Social Security card, he was arrested under Florida Senate Bill 4-C— a law targeting unauthorized migrants in the state, which had been temporarily blocked by a federal court. Lopez-Gomez was held in Leon County Jail for 24 hours, even after a judge verified his citizenship and dismissed the charges against him.

Other victims include Jose Hermosillo, an Arizona citizen detained and released by Border Patrol for nine days; Julio Noriega, a Chicago-born man who was held in ICE detention for over 10 hours; Jensy Machado, a Virginia man detained while driving to work; Jonathan Guerrero, a Pennsylvania man arrested during an ICE raid at a Philadelphia car wash; and a military veteran from Puerto Rico who was arrested in New Jersey during a raid at a seafood business.

What is the government's responsibility to citizens it has harassed in this manner?What is the government's responsibility to citizens it has harassed in this manner?

Who carries his birth certificate and social security card???

Call me incredulous

All that Soros funding and all they could come up with kids kept with their parents that had an opportunity to self deport, and people not actually deported, just detained like anyone else posting a bond or without charge

reply

Soros or no, I'm curious how we understand the edges: parents are illegally in the country, children are not. What is the appropriate course of action?

reply

Appropriate course is to first give notice, that was done.

Following that, keeping kids with parents is a safe and I'd imagine universally preferable default.

We don't know if there was an avenue or not for the kids to stay, it's a trash article ghost written by foreign adversaries. Given the birth-right-citizenship ruling coming down any day now, it may not have mattered anyway.

reply

How do you interpret equal protection under the law as it applies to such children?

reply

Equal protection of what?

reply

Their right to remain in the country. But I see your answer #1408865.

It seems to me that this is a bit of a stretch. You didn't get deported, you just chose to stay with your parents. But I suppose I can't really argue with it.

reply

How is it a stretch? If that weren't the case the article would have hoisted that scalp, but it has no such scalp, its just a psyop headline article for the undiscerning who won't notice the lack of substance.

what right to remain in the country?

this is the problem, you are assuming these 'children' have 'rights'

follow the law

children born in usa but parents are undocumented, children are not citizens

otherwise children of tourists would be citizens

reply

There is no such law. Nice try. Born on US soil, you're a citizen, regardless of any executive order.

read amendment 14

I did. Read it yourself too...

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

The radcal right doesn't care about the constitution.They want authoritarianism.

And @Bell_curve is a retard.

Not for long

  1. We dont know if the kids had an avenue to stay or not, article is trash written by trash people
  2. It likely won't matter, espescially if they already know what the ruling would be

A person born in the United States who is subject to the jurisdiction of the United States is a U.S. citizen at birth, to include a child born to a member of an Indian, Eskimo, Aleutian, or other aboriginal tribe. -Chapter 3 - U.S. Citizens at Birth (INA 301 and 309), US Customs and Immigration Policy Manual
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. -14th Amendment to US Constitution

The 14th Amendment goes on to say:

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Lopez Gomez doesn't speak English or Spanish, his first language is Tzotzil

reply

Why TF would a US citizen self-deport?

reply

The parents were not citizens, read gooder.

reply

Then the parents were subject to removal, not the children. So, the matter never should have involved the children, period.

reply

There's no allegation the children were deported or without recourse, the parents were. The children simply stayed with there parents.

It's a globalist article that tip toes around libel by using innuendo.

reply

because his welfare benefits expired

reply

Regardless of your surprise, if the government were to so treat you, what would you hope was available as recourse?

reply

A person who knows white law enforcement judge on looks first and paperwork when they have to.

Es preocupante y triste que muchos de los que llevan años en estados unidos sean tratados así, recuerdo la guerra entre utus y tutsis o la guerra de bosnia, como todos vivían juntos y luego se mataban y cazaban a sus propios vecinos, ahora la misma situación en un país que dice su presidente que quiere Paz, pero que Paz si en su país la gente está matando a sus vecinos, cazandolos como si fueran fieras, es tanto el odio de este mundo que no hay perdón, prefiero creer en Dios mil veces que en el hombre que solo disfruta de matar, contrario a los animales que solo lo hacen por alimento. Y cuál es la libertad que dicen de dar. Esto me hace mal emocionalmente, oraré por mis hermanos, amigos y familiares que una ves vieron su sueño americano y hoy viven una pesadilla.😢🙏
