I got the link this time.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Well, I thought there would be more uproar.

 

[Meister]

Well, I thought there would be more uproar.

I'm sure there will be.
After all, he was just a student getting an education exercising his First Amendment rights.

 

[Rocko]

And stay out

 

[TemplarKormac]

Since I'm turning over a new leaf here, I'm gonna want to see what kind of evidence Rubio presented that convinced this judge he was deportable. "Meeting the burden of proof" for a judge is a pretty high standard. I am a proponent of First Amendment rights, so I really would like to know how the evidence was so compelling that it caused the judge to see past Khalil's First Amendment rights.

He had his day in court and his lawyer made his case judge made his decision have a safe trip home.

If HE can be deported, then all these TdA and MS13s can also be deported against Boasman's wishes.

He got Due Process that every criminal invader gets but now lib loons have declared his due process wasn’t done the way they feel is warranted

The Supremes will tell him to go home. I'm not in favor of foreigners who come to this country and foment unrest and don't think anyone should be. You are free to try this with your own government, in your own country, if you dare.

 

[TemplarKormac]

I predict that SCOTUS could rule in Khalil's favor, though. Because from my viewpoint, activism isn't a crime. It's free speech. It's only when that activism results in violent behavior does it cross the realm from free speech into endangering safety, and thus a violation of your LPR status.

Rubio's case will have to meet an even higher burden once it reaches SCOTUS.

I believe you are right, the real question is did he do anything "actionable", did he call for others to commit crimes? If his only offense was riling up the student body, I'm not sure that meets the threshold of deportation.

It sill comes down to some archaic legal ruling about foreigners fomenting unrest against the United States, and whether this was that. Legally, probably not.

A federal judge in Louisiana??? This is headed to the Supreme Court.

Good to hear a ruling from a judge that understands the situation.
It won't be long before a combination of pro-Palestinian leftists hellbent on dividing this nation get onto this thread and complain, as well as individuals who have no actual knowledge of the ongoing turmoil over there, jumping onboard to also protest. For those people, I'll put these actual facts out:
1. For the "Queers for Palestine" crowd, fact: To Hamas and most Palestinians, homosexuality is punishable by death. Period. The same holds true in Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Yemen, et cetera. Why? Because the Quran and Sharia rule, with an iron fist.
2. Why Hamas, Hezbollah, Syria and Iran want a complete genocide on "all" Jews, especially those in Israel: It's about "subjugation not territory." Definition of subjugation: To bring about domination or control by conquest. Islam is a "conquering religion."
3. As for Khalil, he came on a student visa, which means he comes knowing that he is just a "guest" and not entitled to the same rights as citizens, so must behave properly to stay. It's the same principle as when you invite a guest over to your house. If they start causing problems, you can toss them out. Foreign "guests" on student visas cannot actively support known terrorist organizations and calling for the downfall of the nation they are in a guest of.

Because that's where Khalil is being held. The case was tried in a relevant venue.

 

[justoffal]

I'm sure there will be.
After all, he was just a student getting an education exercising his First Amendment rights.

And violating his visa

Columbia University activist Mahmoud Khalil can be deported, immigration judge finds

A Louisiana immigration judge has ruled that the U.S. can deport Mahmoud Khalil based on the federal government’s argument that he poses a national security risk. His lawyers are expected to appeal, and a federal judge in New Jersey has temporarily barred Khalil’s removal from the country.

Kill the Jews was well beyond activism

Sure, but since we are a country that values individual rights over arbitrary collective punishment, I will ask: Did he kill any Jews? It's one thing to chant "kill the Jews" in protest, and another to command a group of people to do it, and even another to do it alongside them.

Like I said, I want to see the evidence Rubio presented to the judge. I'm not necessarily convinced his case was that airtight.

 

[struth]

Yes, because that court has jurisdiction because of where he is being held.

I expect the will appeal, there are Dem donors bank rolling this Hamas agents legal fees
