I hope the demented LEFT keep up their noble struggle for THE "RIGHTS" OF ILLEGAL ALIENS.
Keep crying.
Keep shouting.
Keep assaulting ICE facilities.
Keep on striving AGAINST WE THE PEOPLE.
All the way to THE MIDTERMS!!!!
I unfortunately had to do a crash course in the U.S. constitution in order to make an assessment of just how bad thing had gotten in our country (found out that they had always been this bad with the exception of the time period that began on 1/20/2025). I was very surprised to learn that our laws were actually fashioned to protect the rights of not the individuals who are innocent, but those who are actually guilty.
I know this seems counter-intuitive and I didn't believe it either when I first read it but I have since researched it further and essentially, it's not so much that people are [more] concerned about the rights of "illegal aliens" as they are that the rights of EVERYONE be protected.
Because if you put your support behind violating the rights of others because you don't believe they are entitled to them for whatever reason, then you can't rightfully expect any support when YOUR rights are violated especially if you're innocent, how could you?
Why the U.S. legal system seems built for the guilty — not the innocent
At its core, the U.S. Constitution and legal system were designed to protect people from the government, not just to sort out guilt vs. innocence.
The Founders weren’t imagining innocent people getting arrested all the time — they were imagining a government that might try to jail people just because it could. That’s the key difference.
So here’s the big, counterintuitive truth:
Our system was not built to find the truth.
It was built to limit how much power the government can use to get it.
In plain terms:
Imagine if you were actually guilty of something — let's say, stealing a car. Even if you
did it, the cops and courts still have to play fair:
- They can’t break into your house without a warrant
- They can’t force you to confess
- They can’t hide evidence from your lawyer
- They can’t convict you without giving you a fair trial
That’s because the system assumes:
- If the government can railroad the guilty, it can do even worse to the innocent
- So the rules are designed to slow things down, even if it means some guilty people walk free
But here’s why that hurts the innocent:
If you’re innocent:
- You’re often treated just like someone guilty
- You still get arrested, booked, dragged into court, forced to pay a lawyer
- The system doesn't automatically favor you just because you're telling the truth
Because the rules are neutral — they protect everyone the same, guilty or not
Why It Feels Backward
If you're innocent, you want the system to say:
"Let’s believe you first and prove you didn't do it."
But instead, it says:
"We’ll treat you like a suspect, and you can prove you didn't do it while we act like you did."
This isn't because the system assumes you're guilty — it’s because it tries to avoid abusing power, and in doing so, it offers the same protections to everyone… even if they don’t deserve it. [theoretically]
Bottom Line:
Our laws were designed to stop the government from crushing people — even guilty ones — because once that crushing power exists, it’s easy to use it on anyone.
So the system:
- Moves slowly
- Demands proof
- Gives everyone the benefit of the doubt — even when they don’t deserve it
That’s what protects the innocent in theory, but in practice? It also means you don’t get a fast-track just because you're innocent.
