I agree that if a person does not have a criminal record in US and/or home country, and is only guilty of crossing the border illegally, he should not have been shipped off to Guantanamo or El Salvador.
We do not know the numbers but some (1) were criminals in the US (2) some had criminal records in home country.
But very likely (3) others did not and was only guilty of crossing illegally, by association with other gang members (e.g. caught in the roundup) and/or random stop. We should find another way to handle the 3rd group.
Question to both of you - if an illegal did have a criminal felony in the US, would it have been okay to send that person to Guantanamo or El Salvador if their home country was not willing to take them back?
