I wonder how many Americans even heard about the Canadian woman who was: 1/ stripped of her valid USA work visa; 2/ detained without access to a lawyer; 3/ not informed of her rights; 4/ transported without notice to any relative of her destination or where she would be held; 5/ denied appropriate human comforts (bedding and a bed); 6/ had to seek contact with friends to get attention to her plight; 7/ was finally released when the media broke her story public. DID YOU HEAR OF IT?

READ IT HERE AND TELL ME IF THIS IS AMERICAN JUSTICE!

I believe it, because mg cousin’s Canadian wife (legal permanent resident) was detained for hours and questioned back in February after visiting her family in Canada. She’s been a legal permanent resident (married to my cousin) for 30 years and normally crossing back into the USA is a 5 minute process.

I’d say we are *barely* still in the realm of the “free” countries, but every defied court order pushes us closer to the “russia” category.

I know about her and it makes me extremely sad. We have been taken over by domestic terrorists here in the USA and I fear it will take our president and other cabinet members being charged with international war crimes and threat of military attack upon the USA if we don’t allow them to be extradited to face charges. That’s what it will take to get our Congress to act.

If pushed into a corner over it, most Americans will admit their government is not democratic. They counter with the argument that it is in fact a Republic, or representative democracy. As if this excuses it. But the real issue is the distance between what the constitution and Bill of Rights say and the laws and how they are enforced.
When the problem was confined within America, this was "good enough". But Trump 2.0 has taken the problem global and now eight billion people can have a say and choose to take their ball and go home.. And enough will to break America, which cant support its own population with a 21st century lifestyle..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman I hesitate to give you a 'best reply' right now... but that's a damned good response!

Our government is wack. Currently. If you are looking to reconstruct, I would pitch ideas for the 2029 campaigns.

If civil war breaks out you could hook some of us up with a 4 year Canadian visa to advocate on your behalf 😜🙃🙂

@YoungPoet345 I don't want you to wait that long: It's time for American people to ask their congresional elects to act to restore justice in your country.

@JollyRoger the Republican Party refuses to accept our requests.

I hope the 🇨🇦 join the EU...there are talks on already....we are getting ready to ship American prisoners to El Salvador
JollyRoger · 70-79, M
@bookerdana Personally I think America deserves the 'cold shoulder' that it is showing the rest of the world. I just want (REALLY WANT) the American people to look at what their government is allowing to happen. Sure... enforce your laws, but do it within the LAW.
bookerdana · M
@JollyRoger exactly but we,or the government no longer believe in the rule of law

Gulf of America is enough. Canada must remain Canadian or where will we flee to? 😆🙃🙂

@JollyRoger you are asking a MAGA to read???
We Americans actually don’t care what foreigners think about our country’s business. JS

@RedBaron Yes, I don't know how clearly you American people can hear the rest of the world.

@JollyRoger “You American people?”

You think all 323 million of us are alike? That’s quite the bigoted sweeping generalization.

A bigot like you has no business criticizing anyone, American or otherwise.
