Who here supports this?

Who is against?

Why?

[Devo]

No.

We don't send our citizens overseas, just like we should not drone strike Americans abroad without due process.

If an American commits a crime there, its one thing, their country, their laws, but we shouldn't be exporting citizens to go to another countries jail system.

Our jail system, though far too large and overpopulated, is our business, not another countries.

And on the same note, I don't support privately run prisons, we have seen in PA, what that leads to.

[HDGristle]

So you don't support deporting citizens. Or holding them overseas to save on cost.

[Devo]

No grizzle, nobody does.

It wouldn't be a deportation as, they are a citizen, but, I'm sure you must have overlooked that fact.

Why would we export any CITIZEN, to another country, except in the case it was an international crime, and agreed upon to be constitutional?

[HDGristle]

Trump has, in fact, deported citizens.

And some people are in favor of it. I'm glad you're not. We have some common ground.

He added: "We are willing to take in only convicted criminals (including convicted U.S. citizens) into our mega-prison (CECOT) in exchange for a fee. The fee would be relatively low for the U.S. but significant for us, making our entire prison system sustainable."


anything else ?

GUATEMALA CITY, Guatemala -- Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday that the Trump administration would "have to make a decision" on whether to pursue El Salvadorian President Nayib Bukele's offer to accept convicted American criminals and U.S. permanent residents in the Central American country's prisons and President Donald Trump suggested, if legal, he'd "do it in a heartbeat."

Whoever’s in charge of El Salvador fears a jdam in their living room with a loose cannon like Trump running the show. Locking up American citizens for no reason would not be a wise decision.

Well on a side note, the el salvador president has turned that country around in terms of safety and getting rid of ms13. Ive been there 5 times in the past 10 years. There were many places where even the police wouldnt go and now its a 100% turna round.
Ms13 are mother fuckers. They deserve far less then prison

Meanwhile we're afraid of Charleroi and Homewood.

Send em to El Salvador?

[Green_Mountain]

I say lead by example. Show you have no bias and spend the day walking through Homewood. Talk to strangers.

A trip to El Salvador would surely soon follow.
