4 thoughts on “Using The Military For Deportation”
Are concentration camps against the law? Evidently not.
FDR didn’t think they were illegal. That’s why he sent thousands of people of Japanese ancestry to camps across the west. Some of them, like a friend of mine (now deceased) were US citizens.
“That’s why he sent thousands of people of Japanese ancestry to camps across the west. Some of them, like a friend of mine (now deceased) were US citizens.”
Yes. However many years ago the Supreme Court ruled that said internment of the Japanese was declared unconstitutional; and I believe survivors and/or their immediate descendants were entitled to recompensation.
Presumably Trump for his deportation of illegal alien non-citizens would invoke the 1807 insurrection act and that would be his legal justification for deploying the military.
Even if we suppose it’s legal, what’s the need? There’s already a lot of law enforcement manpower to throw at this and the problem doesn’t seem to be getting worse. My take is Trump’s reputation alone may cause a drop in illegal immigration just by itself like it apparently did in 2017.
And how much mass surveillance are we getting with this?
