It's simple really. We'll deal with it if and when it happens.

There is little point running around screaming what might happen (as far as our rights go) until we have evidence that it is happening.

I think non-citizens are guests here and have fewer "rights". It is not unreasonable to be able to hold someone 48 hours that is a non-citizen that is suspected of crime prior to their leaving the country. The previous rule was 24 hours I believe.

I think that those who disappeared in the 1940s might disagree that there is no point screaming about it now.

(BTW, I'm not screaming, I'm trying to calmly point out that this forum is in danger of turning into the type of statist hypocrites that we bitched about since it was created.)

Why not have a policy of Non-rights or reduced rights for Non-citizens or those here on visas? We could make it safer for all, and not trash the Bill of Rights.
