would consider everyone being deported to be a flight risk

Alas that needs to be decided on a case by case basis. Messy isn't it? The Court was right on this one.

[Hugh Akston]

Can you come up with any imaginable situation where a person being deported should not be considered a flight risk?

Other than being in a coma (where a bail hearing would not do much good anyway), I cannot.

I can, however, imagine an adenda-driven ideologue liberal judge allowing bail to obvious flight risks.

As such, it would have been common sense and cost effective for the courts to say no here.

I don't know how the Supreme Court will rule, but I believe this one should be overturned.
