Eyes Up’s purpose is to “preserve evidence until it can be used in court.” But it has been swept up in Apple’s attack on ICE-spotting apps.

    I’m curious why you think someone who entered the country illegally deserves a “fair trial” before being deported when they’re in the country illegally?

        Yes you can lol. Citizenship records exist. Visa records exist.

        Can you determine if someone has a drivers license without a trial?

          @FreedomAdvocate if I were law enforcement I probably could establish whether you had a driver’s licence, but who’s making me do it? If I tried to put you in jail for driving without a licence, even though you had a licence that I didn’t check, what’s your recourse?

          @FreedomAdvocate What’s the process to make sure those get checked before you get punished for being there? I say “you” on purpose - if I said “freedom advocate is here illegally! Take them!” and they believed me and threw you in the back of a van, what would you expect to happen at that point? Who would you speak to? How? How would you make sure they did what needed to be done to establish *your* legality? How would you make them check your papers?

            They wouldn’t punish me in the first place because they’d have checked their records and seen that I am a citizen. No one is just being rounded up on an allegation and deported. No citizens have been deported.

            You’re saying that they don’t follow procedures, and your solution is……procedures?

      Our law- rightly- operates on the basis or natural rights. Endowed by their creator, and inalienable. Do you know what that means? It means rights aren’t something given to you by the constitution, you are born with them just for being a person, and they cannot be taken away. If we have a right to fair trial, so does everyone who ever lived, whether they got them is just a matter of how oppressive their governments were. Illegal immigrants are people and thus have natural rights.

        You don’t have a right to a “fair trial” for not being able to prove you’re a citizen or have a valid visa to be in the country though lol. This doesn’t need a trial because there’s nothing to argue, nothing in question. Citizenship records exist. Visa records exist.
