Non US citizens in the US don’t have to be charged with a crime to be arrested and deported.

But the matter does have to go before a judge.

I am certainly asking you to justify all your claims with the relevant pieces of evidence. Factual claims  need links as per forum rules

  1. He was not served a warrant
    1. This breaks the Fourth Amendment
  2. His citizenship was revoked without due process
    1. This breaks the Fifth Amendment

I've broken it into its bare essentials for you, as reading is not your strong suit.

Do you want links to sources that say he wasn't served a warrant? Because we both know you already knew that.

Do you want a link to the Fourth Amendment? You should already know what that entails for someone who wants to appear so well-rounded in the law.

You are deeply insincere in the worst ways.

Rubbish, he does not need to commit a crime to be arrested

These are factual claims that I will need a link and a source to according to forum rules. This is more loaded and in-depth than what the Fourth Amendment in the Bill of Rights entails.

His immigration status is going through due process as right now.

His immigration status was already revoked without due process. You and I both know that the reason he is being held from deportation by a NY judge is because of this. Simply checking to see if he is a permanent resident is not due process; a computer can see if a checkbox is filled or not before deportation.

Already plenty of links to the claims in previous posts, how can it be already revoked when the judge has not made a decision yet?

 

Can you provide a link to the claim it was revoked without due process?

You may want to try and understand the difference between free speech and hate speech.

I'd like to understand that too.  In the US law, is there any distinction between the two?

Yes there is but the hate speech threat needs to be specific and imminent.

That's making threats against a specific person.  Hate speech is usually defined to be things like Holocaust denial or calling for blacks to be put back into slavery.

True but that has been protected in cautious courts. Where do you draw the line?

   Would you allow people with links to Hamas the terrorist group who are linked to USA's enemy Iran , whom the USA may be going to war with soon ,

   Those people who barricade themselves into University classrooms and make demands to leave and those who attack USA minority citizens on campuses and cause a disruption to others education  .

   Should they be allowed to remain in the USA ?

After evidence is presented. That has not happened, just innuendo.

Here's the Hamas pamphlet that Khalil among others passed out  during the takeover of a building at Bernhard College.  Note that it's not a pamphlet that's merely ABOUT Hamas, but a pamphlet that was issued BY Hamas.  It bears the Hamas emblem and the words, "Hamas Media Office."   It's reasonable to believe that distributing official Hamas publications amounts to support of a terrorist group.

“It's reasonable to believe that distributing official Hamas publications amounts to support of a terrorist group.”

 

So are you also guilty of disseminating Hamas propaganda and if so, which seems self evident, does your conclusion apply to yourself?

Not charged? Check.

 

Activist = "Serious" threat to national security. 

 

 

That's your "opinion"? Right?

 

 

Maybe better to try invoking the Alien and Sedition Act of 1798 ( and the Alien Enemies Act )?

 

Last used, to great shame, to incarcerate Japanese-American citizens (among others) during WW2.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not even close to the same thing but you knew that.
Can you be any more dramatic ?

This is what support for Hamas looks like in the U.S.  It goes waaaaay beyond freedom of speech. Note the part where a protester says "You Jewish m*therf*cker!  We are going to kill all of you."  He didn't say Zionist or Israeli, but Jewish.  And I'm sure he meant it.

Except none of that is illegal or a threat to the US.

   Treaspss, criminal damage and attacking people is actually illegal in the USA .

Iran/Qatar/Hamas  having an influence in the USA  is indeed a threat to peace and also the USA

Intent figures in heavily.  Mahmoud Khalil's intent in passing out Hamas pamphlets is to support Hamas in achieving its goal of destroying the state of Israel and massacring Israeli citizens.  My goal is the opposite.  I linked to the content of the pamphlet to identify Hamas as a terrorist group so people support the efforts to destroy it.  I'm sure U.S. authorities know the difference between the two.  

 

It's not illegal to read or possess a pamphlet by Hamas.  Distributing Hamas pamphlets with the intent of supporting Hamas could be illegal.

 Jewish students were harassed and threatened, sometimes assaulted,  during university demonstrations.  Demonstrations off campus, sometimes in front of synagogues, also harassed Jews on their w ay to worship.  Antisemitism is definitely a threat to the U.S. and can become illegal, depending on the form it takes.  

 

Spray-painting slogans, vandalism and threatening or assaulting individuals is always illegal.  Take a look at the video I posted three steps above.

Charge them and follow due process.
