SCOTUS: Human trafficking legal
You’re denied due process, even w proof you are a US born citizen. Anyone w a mask can abduct/disappear you, your loved ones won’t notified, flown to a war torn country & sold into slavery. We all can become a target at any time. This couldn’t be any more horrifying.
