Why say legally if it changes nothing, then?
Because a major point of 'reason' that the right-wing has with this person's abduction is that he was 'here illegally so it doesn't matter what happens to him'.
This messaging isn't for you. Its mostly meant to shortcircuit the above.
These little shitty 'gotcha' purity tests the left constantly foists upon itself is tiring and the stuff of children. The man the US government abducted is likely dead; murdered by despicable people willing to do unspeakable things to meet their ends. Yet you sit here griping about, what? The way one person, trying to shout back in solidarity against the coming horror, said something slightly askew? I'd think it pathetic if it weren't so exhausting.
