Colombia

Care enough to pass the time with me. I do appreciate it.

Still don't want to share what the crimes were?

26 is an interesting number that I doubt Fox or Trump properly discussed.

It's one of those IYKYK things that helps cut beyond the bullshit pretty quickly.

I know what Trump said they did, but... I also know that didn't apply to those 26. And what Luis Gilberto Murillo confirmed regarding the 201.

Calls some things into question, boys

Some "very fine people" mebbe. Originally Posted by HDGristle

Feel free to explain how. Make a thread if you'd like or tie it back to Colombia.

Naahh... IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW.

I do. I also defended his very fine people comment if you wanna roll the tape.

Can you prove there weren't some very fine people on those flights? Names? Charges? Convictions?

We'll wait.

Who cares. If you’re in the country illegally and can be legally deported I hope it happens. That includes the people going back to Colombia. If you want to hang your hat on the “flight accommodations” have fun with that.

Whatabout was this same scrutiny applied when Clinton deported 12M illegals?

Was this same scrutiny applied when Obama deported 3M illegals?

It wasn’t? Oh thats right, orange man bad.

Nice whattaboutisms. I get that you boys don't care. That doesn't matter to me. Some people DO care and some of them may have voted for Trump.

Clinton and Obama were both criticized. As was Bush. Obama went harder than Bush and your # is low for him. All assholes in their own right and own way. Oddly, they didn't end up on the precipice of trade wars with Colombia over it.

On this measure, orange man is bad. There doesn't seem to have been the promised prioritization of violent, hardened criminals here that you're hanging your hat on.

And Colombia was justified in sticking up for the dignity of its citizens, just as we would be if the situation was reversed.

I’m certainly not hanging my hat on deporting violent criminals. That however should be the priority and is a bonus. Any illegal that can be legally deported is in play.

Here’s a related quote from Cenk Uygur who is a lib. Well said.

“The Colombian president started the fight on accepting undocumented immigrants back into his country. His main complaint was that they were coming on a military plane and that's inhumane treatment. Good news, you can treat them as humanely as you like when you have them back.”

Wasn't just the military plane. The reports from the flights to Brazil colored the response.

The cuffs being on when they weren't supposed to be by agreement. The medical issues reported. The lack of water on a 12 hr flight The lack of restrooms.

If an American were treated that way, the reactions would be swift, aggressive and loud.

Trade war? More like swatting a fly.

You really seem to want to open up Latin America to the Chinese. They're already getting in Petro's ear due to Trump's buffoonery on this.

Your prerogative... but not in our interests
