So, Jacob Gellar?

There shouldn't be a path to legality - that just incentivizes more illegal immigration, because they know they'll get residency eventually.

To be clear, I think what's going on in El Salvador is abhorrent, and that at this point ICE is basically the Gestapo, but that doesn't mean that countries shouldn't have the right to decide who is and who isn't allowed across their borders.

If I illegally crossed the border into Canada because I don't like what Trump is doing, for example, they have every right to kick me out.

"Neutral" jurors, of course, crucially being ones both 1. ok with corpos killing regular people and 2. not ok with regular people killing corpos.

That might not be the best criterion, since that's basically all that George Carlin did too.

As well as the famous classical epic poem describing a similar-but-agentive event titled "Hey Diddle Diddle, the Cat and the Fiddle"

From the last answer, it sounds like they would only need to turn in their SIM card.

Me plugging my monitor into my mobo instead of my graphics card for three years. I thought I had just gotten reeeeally unlucky in the silicon lottery.

I’m a bit wary of the 2011 stat for male victims with male perpetrators.

Yeah, honestly I felt the same way when I first looked at the numbers, but they seem to be confirmed in the CDC 2015 and 2017 studies as well. I even tried to find independent numbers of, for example, male on male sexual assault in prisons to make sure I wasn't accidentally excluding relevant data.

It's also worth mentioning that, as flicker said, it's impossible to know the huge amount of male- and female-perpetrated and male- and female-victim cases that go unreported each year, which would certainly result in significantly different numbers, though it's impossible to know exactly how they'd be affected.

Sorry, but I still just do not see how stating the obvious fact that "if you come here illegally you will be arrested and deported" can in any way be seen as "propaganda".
