If anyone is unaware, they’ve already detained and tortured to the point of hospitalization a white (I hate I have to put this), gay permanent US resident from the EU (Germany. He literally recently renewed his green card, so any excuse about a 10+ year old marijuana related misdemeanor is bullshit at best. Sources about the German guy: NBC article Newsweek article

I would also point anyone still reading that hasn’t seen it already to this post/article: Lemmy World post/link It lists 7 verified cases of Visa and Greencard holders being detained and/or deported.

Or this Independent article about a green card holder who was deported without her meds or identification over a marijuana charge.
