Deportation, in the vast majority of cases, is such an incredibly stupid policy to begin with. First - if someone is convicted of an actual violent crime, then they need to be incarcerated as applicable in an ethically run facility here in the USA - not sent elsewhere... see complete post

Hey, are there any Dungeons & Dragons nerdz on my feed? My kiddo is all too quickly (at least, as far as my perception of time) making the transition from kid to teen, and as she more & more abandons toys and lots of the activities we used to do together on the regula... see complete post
