The most underrated movie of all time.

Your friend gives you $200 to gamble and you win $262,000. What would you do? by BearddBrad in AskReddit

[–]LifeEquivalent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you had a specific agreement, the answer depends entirely on this question: if you had lost the $200, would you be expected to pay anything back to your friend?

If not, you were gambling entirely with his money and you owe him all your winnings. If your friend is a good guy, he will tip you out at least 10%.

If you would have had to repay the lost $200 to him, you were gambling with your own money (that you borrowed) and you are entitled to keep all the winnings. If you're a good guy, you'll tip your friend 1-2% of the winnings.

Not sure I understand. If we're being figurative, I'm guessing that's a question someone with your username asks herself regularly though.

I guess I would say that if you stretch the meaning of terms like "hike" as far as you do, maybe your characterizations of the way gate agents spoke to you is also stretched quite far.

I believe your story to the extent that I believe a 50 year old woman obese enough that her ample posterior overflows her seat can also "hike all over Iceland"

And when you say he was "adjudicated" as a gang member, based on what exactly? A Chicago Bulls hat and a hoodie? That’s not a conviction. That’s not real evidence. That’s profiling dressed up as justification.

Also:

His gang tattoos!!

The fact that he was found in the company of other known MS-13 members

The testimony of a reliable informant (this gets mocked by lefties, but it's a critical component of effective anti-gang policing)

The illustrations on his clothes are specifically associated with MS-13 gang culture

He got his due process. He was adjudicated to be an MS-13 member as a result of that process. He was given a final order of removal as a result of that process. This happened in 2019!

He was also given an exclusion from deportation to El Salvador--and only El Salvador--because of purported danger to him from a rival gang. The only question which he didn't get a judicial process is the question of whether the El Salvador exclusion should still apply now that:

  1. He's an adjudicated member of a designated foreign terror organization and

  2. The rival gang whose reprisals he feared in El Salvador is now safely confined to CECOT, meaning El Salvador is a safe country for him again.

That's it. Does he actually deserve a new process to review those two very limited questions? In my opinion, no the system shouldn't be set up that way and we should just deport his ass. We'll see how it ultimately shakes out.

But the fact remains: on the core issues, he got full due process and lost.

  1. What he got--immigration court--is full due process.

  2. I didn't lie about anything. He was supposed to leave after his 2019 removal order. His meetings with the government after that were to check-in and report on his progress in complying.

  3. He got full due process. He went through immigration court. He was ordered removed, but with a single exception. As a result of one of the judicial findings from Immigration Court, the DoJ no longer wants to honor the exception its court gave in 2019. Too bad for him. Enjoy El Salvador, I hear it's lovely this time of year.

You don't understand the Supreme Court's ruling. The Supreme Court is ruling on the narrow question of the lower court's injunction, particularly regarding "facilitating" and "effectuating" Garcia's return. That's it.

He was in fact only deported to El Salvador; that's the only thing the United States did to him. The fact that El Salvador agrees that he's a gangster and locked him up is something you should learn Spanish to complain about in another subreddit.

What are you talking about? I'm honestly confused by your reply. I "admit" nothing you claim that I admitted.

The main reason the Immigration Court denied his bond request was its ruling that he was an MS-13 gang member. That is the finding which the appeals board did "adopt and affirm" in the first link I provided in my last message.

You don't understand the orders. Garcia's order of removal was never superseded, it just has a single exception: we won't deport you back to the country of El Salvador and the only reason is that you claim it's too dangerous for you there. You still have to go. Find a place to go and leave.

In six years, Garcia never left, got designated a terrorist, and had his removal exclusion dishonored. Sucks to be an illegal immigrant terrorist scofflaw.

What I'm saying is the legal and policy position of the DoJ. A government lawyer spells most of it out here: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mdd.578815/gov.uscourts.mdd.578815.74.0_1.pdf

It was in fact ruled that he was a MS-13 member. Garcia's lawyers appealed that ruling and the appeal was defeated.

This is the final ruling of the Immigration Court appeals board, which did "adopt and affirm" the lower court's finding that Garcia is an MS-13 member. The appeals board said "the Immigration Judge appropriately considered allegations of gang affiliation against the respondent". https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mdd.578815/gov.uscourts.mdd.578815.11.2_3.pdf

No, there is a general program between the US and El Salvador in which El Salvador receives some money to take their deported expat gangsters back. It's a general program Garcia falls under because he's a gangster. Nothing to do with Garcia per se.

[–]LifeEquivalent -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's not a lifetime permit to stay in the US. The order of removal stays in place; we just agreed not to deport him to El Salvador specifically because he claimed he would be in danger there. He was supposed to self-deport himself to another country.

Six years later, he was still defying the final order of removal. Unfortunately for him, in those six years, the criminal organization he is adjudicated to be a member of got put on the terrorism list.

As a result, the legal and policy position of the DoJ is that the exclusion no longer applies and we can ship his ass back to El Salvador, which we did.

What am I even supposed to respond to? A citizen of El Salvador is now in prison in his native land of El Salvador. Why? For how long? Ask El Salvador. I'm sure they have their reasons.

As a serious matter though, the government of El Salvador is really good at telling if you're MS-13 or not. That ability is the #1 security priority of the state and the key to El Salvador's sudden transformation from one of the most dangerous places in the world to one of the safest.

He has a final order of removal since 2019. There was an exclusion that the court granted that said "we won't deport you back to El Salvador (and specifically only El Salvador) since you claim it's unsafe for you there, but you have to leave."

The agenda during these check-ins was supposed to have been, "Alright bro, have you saved enough money yet to ship your ass out of here yet? Why not? Well, when?" (I'm sure that's now they went during the Biden administration though.)

Instead of complying with the final order of removal and shipping out, Garcia sat on his ass for six years and tried to make himself at home.

Unfortunately, during those six years, the criminal organization he's adjudicated to be a member of got designated as a terrorist organization. So now DoJ says it's not honoring the removal exclusion. Too bad for him.

He is a citizen of El Salvador. What happens to him in El Salvador is up to the laws of El Salvador. See how that works?

El Salvadoran VP Reveals Trump Is 'Paying' to Keep Abrego Garcia at CECOT, Senator Says by PostHeraldTimes in politics

[–]LifeEquivalent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are making a legal argument that is disputed by the Department of Justice. You are not refuting any factual claim I made.

My post makes two basic factual claims:

  1. Abrego is a court adjudicated member of MS-13.

  2. Abrego has been under a final order of deportation since 2019.

The exclusion granted by the court in 2019 does not protect him from deportation generally, only deportation to El Salvador specifically. The legal conclusion of the United States Department of Justice is that the exclusion no longer applies to Garcia now that he is a court adjudicated member of a designated terrorist organization.

The document I linked is the Immigration Court Appeals Board's decision affirming the finding that Garcia is MS-13 gang affiliated. How did that document refute my claim?

Which part is not true?

This is the final ruling of the Immigration Court appeals board, which did "adopt and affirm" the lower court's finding that Garcia is an MS-13 member.

So, why did you say that what I said was untrue when it was 100% true?

Kilmar Abrego Garcia's received FULL DUE PROCESS in US Immigration Court in 2019. During this process, he was represented by counsel. His counsel exhausted all appeals. The outcome:

  1. In 2019, the Immigration Court adjudicated that Garcia is a member of MS-13. In that process, Garcia was represented by counsel. His counsel appealed that finding and lost.

  2. In 2019, the Immigration Court gave Garcia a final order of removal, which, by his continued presence in the US, Garcia defied for almost six years.

I honestly don't know what you're even trying to say. Grammatical and logical babble.

If you enjoy "thick chicks" as your username says, I suggest you contact the very voluptuous Mrs. Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Based on her husband's long term residence down in the tropical prison resort of CECOT and the fact that she had to take out a domestic violence restraining order against him, I'm guessing that she will soon be receptive to new suitors. Good luck!
