Sorry this was not what my original comment was supposed to imply. I understand how that was the meaning someone took from it but what I intended for it to say was more that you have to have a framework in which everyone is treated as a citizen until proven otherwise not that People who aren’t citizens don’t deserve rights but I understand why it’s a contentiousissue given the current administration.

There is. It’s not citizen, it’s person.

I would argue it’s become much blurrier in execution and they are no longer garenteed their day in court

Correct. We are operating outside the law
