Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Yes, that's exactly the point.
I believe I saw someone say on Tumblr that if you enjoy having rights then you should advocate the strongest for criminals enjoying rights as well, because otherwise, the Government can always just take your rights away by labelling you a criminal.
Or, as has been trendy lately, a Salvadoran gang member.
Yes, Thats what I've been saying.
You only have as many rights as an accused criminal does.
and if we can remove due process from someone who is accused of being a criminal, and sent them to a central american torture prison with no judge, jury, hearing, or anything... Then anyone can be sent to a central american torture prison, because all it will take is a baseless accusation to strip you of all your supposedly inalienable rights.
That's just what a Salvadoran gang member would say.
We live in a society where criminals have the right to a free public defender 😱
A public defender who's overworked and probably not even that ~~good~~ effective at his job. You must have a weak case to be concerned about a free lawyer.
Edit: Calling public defenders "not good" is a bit low but they are overworked and under-supported, therefore I rephrased to say they're ineffective.
There's no need to shit on public defenders to make your point.
Fair criticism. Edited my post.
Dude. You're a badass.
Woah, so criminals have the right to fair representation, a fair trial, and in some cases a court of ones peers? :0
Naurr, who cares about constitutionally protected rights like due process when you're a dictator. Those freedoms just get in the way of ~~turning America into a christofascist dystopia~~ making America great again
Stephen Miller is a whiny little bitch. Literally watch any interview, and tell me I’m wrong. 😂 What a cruel and stupid little man.
Considering how many people they arrest and claim to be terrorists that's a good thing.
Break a window on a Tesla? Terrorist!
Speak Spanish, believe it or not, also terrorist.
Tattoo, also terrorist.
Go to University and study anything but STEM or Economics or not be a white christian male? Straight to gitmo.
Buy a Chicago Bulls hat at a thrift store and have brown skin?
Well, you all know the drill by now.
MAGA supporter shooting at a school: tHouGhtsS aNd PrAyErS.
Dem boycotted a Tesla: MAGA says, “DOMESTIC TERRORISM!”
I mean, how do you prosecute someone who has no legal representation?
that requires due process, and who needs that when you got ICE picking people up off the streets at random, slapping temporary tattoos on them, to justify throwing them in planes to be sent to torture prisons.
This is so funny too because I grew up in a time where the police would tell you to not lock your car door if someone was breaking your windows out regularly. No one ever got prosecuted for that shit.
I commented on the wrong post my bad this was to op 😭
