    Any examples? And please don’t say ‘The Maryland man’!

    And why are we not to say the Maryland Man? Because it’s another example? He had filed for asylum and the courts granted withholding or removal of him which gave him LEGAL status to stay in the USA. ICE deported him anyway. You were likely ‘loving it’ when it happened, of course.

    Oh yeah well, I'll just stick to mainstream news that I don't watch and parrot the opinions of politicians I detest.

    You and your pals sound like you have great fun together, thats nice.

    Where do you sit so I can make sure I never have to hear your banter?

    Ah yes, all the violent offenders, like the violent offenders who literally rioted and tried to set buildings on fire because they housed asylum seekers. Because some ****ed up little prick decided to take his teenage angst out on those poor girls, people saw his skin colour and decided to riot.
    Why are you talking about the Southport riots? Do you expect me to support that because I like Trump or something?

    Take a breath buddy.

    Maybe I’m an anomaly on this forum, yes. But my group of Hibs supporting friends I go to games every week are fairly aligned with me on most things. In fact we take great delight in coming up with Trumpian nicknames for players.

    It doesn’t surprise me you find it surreal that someone has a different world view to you.

    Yeah god forbid our government god rid of violent offenders who are illegally in our country. That would be awful.
    My father in law is a Labour, now reform voter.

    All he talks about is immigrants and what they’re up to.

    He lives in a pretty middle class area and there are no homeless, immigrants or Junkies kicking about.

    In fact his only concern in the last couple of years is someone opened a halal butchers on he high street which was met with a lot of worry.

    Smells like racism to me to be honest rather than ‘concern’ for his country.

    I’ve had this discussion recently as well. A guy I work with is, to put it mildly, a piece of ****. Racist, misogynistic, homophobic, bigoted. You name it, he’s almost certainly it.

    Upon overhearing one of his obscene rants about ‘the blue haired *****’, I asked him how the ‘blue haired *****’ were negatively impacting his life. He claimed it was being shoved down his throat everywhere he goes so I asked him the last time he ever seen one protesting, or even spoke to one. He never had, but it was all over his instagram apparently. I pointed out how the algorithm on Instagram only pushes you stuff that you engage with and as such, I never see any ‘blue haired *****’ on mine, I just see videos of food and Ronaldinho, but he’ll see it because he’s continuously resharing homophobic pish. Essentially, it’s not being shoved down his throat, he’s shoving it down his own throat and then greeting about the fact he’s doing it.

    Generally speaking, you’ll find that 99% of the intolerant ******s in the world will have absolutely no real life experience or reason to hate another group of people and it’ll almost always be based upon hearsay from some other piece of **** or nowadays, lies on social media.

    The example above is nothing to do with the ICE raids?

    The Maryland man was in the country illegally and was a known member of MS13. He was detained in 2022 under suspicion of human trafficking. The Biden administration had flagged him as an illegal alien suspected of human trafficking. He was sent back to El Salvador where they promptly arrested him for being the gang member he is.

    Are all undocumented migrants violent criminals?

    Taking the ICE question, though:-

    The problem with protectionism, which is what the tariffs are part of, is that an economy on the scale of the US throwing up those barriers then creates problems both for itself and for other economies. It follows from that that people from those other struggling economies want to leave them, and go somewehere where they perceive they will have a better life.

    It's one of the effects of colonialism, both cultural and economic, that our (and I include the UK in that) colonies want some of what their colonisers want. So... put up trade barriers, and you will get more immigrants climbing over them.

    Would the US not be better served by removing the barriers, hence encouraging people to stay where they are by investment there (as well as at home)? That's the doctrine most American administrations have been following since the end of WW2.

    The Maryland man had a legal right to stay in the country, given to him in court. He had zero criminal convictions.

    Its an interesting counter point to the idea that asylum seekers are the violent criminals, like the Southport rioters thought.

    Behave.

    He may be a 9 day wonder for all we know. He has to be consistent over a long period of time before he can claim that crown.

    You seem to be losing it mate. I specifically said violent offenders. I didn’t say all asylum seekers or any asylum seekers. I’m talking about going after known and proven violent offenders who are illegally in the country and sending them back to where they came from. That is the stated aim of Tom Homan and ICE.

    You don’t seem to be able to follow an argument very well so you keep bringing up things that were never said by me or countering points I never even made.

    It’s been fun buddy, have a good day.

    There it is!!

    Send them back to where they came from!

    Ignoring the fact that most violent criminals are born and bred in the UK.



    Oxford University

    www.migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk

    The share of asylum seekers in the local population is related to a 1.1% rise in property crime but no change in violent crime. A rise in A8 migrants as a share of the population is associated with a 0.4% fall in property crime and has no relationship to violent crime.

    Proportionately more as well, before it’s claimed that’s because we’re the majority.

    I think the majority of people would want violent criminals who are here illegally removed from the country? Wouldn't you? He was specifically talking about violent criminals who are here illegally, not in general.

    Do you want violent criminals here illegally to be removed from the country? A simple Yes or No will suffice.

    Given that they were ‘loving it’ that a man who was legally allowed to be in the USA who had no criminal convictions was deported I think it’s safe to say its not just the violent criminals they want deported from the UK.

    But the point made was illegal violent criminals, if you lived next door to one would you want him/her removed from the country?

    Absolutely right, thanks for clarifying.

    To be clear, I want illegal immigrants that commit violent crimes to be deported out of the country back to where they originated from and I’m pleased Trump is leading the way with it.

    This from the US

    https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6241529/#:~:text=The%20results%20from%20fixed%2Deffects,no t%20significant%20in%20all%20specifications.

    undocumented immigration does not increase violence. Rather, the relationship between undocumented immigration and violent crime is generally negative, although not significant in all specifications.

    An foi request to the UK government does not provide an answer to links between violent crime and illegal migration.
    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    And the point was made that they were also loving ICE raids and they doubled down on that by insisting that Kilmer Abrago Garcia’s deportation was absolutely fine.

    Funnily enough I’m sure McBizz and all the racists who go along with this thinking would be fairly incandescent if them or their family were removed from the UK to be stuck in a prison in El Salvador.

    You read something and made a wrong assumption. Can ask again would you want illegal violent criminals removed from the country? It's a yes or no answer to a question.
