  1. How are their criminals treated? Are they handcuffed? Are they treated with luxuries?

  2. This was a routine deportee transfer flight. These flights didn’t just start.

  3. Don’t come in the first place. US should charge Brazil for the costs of transportation too.

  4. Is there an addon or something I could install that changes all instances of the word “slam” in news articles to something else? Like is it mandatory these days for any time someone criticises someone else that its described as “slams”. Even big outlets do it.

    At the least it indicates an article that I don’t want to read. But, yeah, it might be fodder for r/dataisbeautiful to do a chart of just what percentage of posts here have that word in their titles.

  5. people being deported right now are ones with felonies and crimes like sexual assualt. over 90 migrants with sexual assualt cases who were released on bail got taken yesterday.

    so yea they were cuffed for a reason. they are criminals not just cause they crossed illegally but than committed sexual assault / assault / selling of drugs here got arrested and charged but due to being in a freidnly state or city they are released on the streets not transfered to ice.

    im a legal migrant who is here because of a genocide not because of poverty but because id be dead otherwise. i don’t have a issue with immigration being done right.

    i dont however feel bad when we deport people who have committed serious crimes here who are already here on a thin string being here illegally.

    i knew when i came here and had a visa than green card i could be deported for a felony for battery for selling drugs and a host of other crimes that lead to deportation if you are not a citizen. Not that i was looking to do any of these things in general period. but i learned about it all. to make sure i didnt fuck up because this is my one shot in the world.

    also ive seen latin countries burning the american flag lately.

    that flag isnt donald trump or his followers flag only its everyone in this nations flag. its my flag too. and i find that shit highly disrespectful and my attitude from i feel for you changes quickly to fuck you when you burn the flag of my country.

  6. Omg they transported criminals in handcuffs? How shocking!

  7. Oh look, this has been happening for YEARS and under the previous administration too. Suddenly we care more because the big orange man continues doing it? It took me all of two minutes to find another article about it.  https://latinoamerica21.com/en/deportation-of-brazilians-a-silent-tragedy/

    “ They boarded the same flight but were separated from their families, including minors, and had their legs and hands shackled in the U.S., only to be unshackled hours before the plane landed in Minas Gerais.
    In other words, deportees flew over Brazilian territory while still shackled by U.S. authorities, in violation of Brazilian law.”

  8. When did “slam” become common journalistic parlance? It will never not sound silly.

    Also, I’m from Brazil, yeah, while part of me wishes Brazil could reject those people or that there was at least some punishment in here for them, who are a bunch arseholes leaving to cause problem in a foreign country (at least the adults, the children of course don’t get much of a choice), I also don’t want them to be hot boxed in handcuffs, which is inhuman treatment.

  9. Good news Brazil stop sending them and they want come back like that

  10. Okay so we’re heading back to 2016-era reporting? Everything is a “slam” again? Neat.

  11. Slam! Welcome to the jam!

    Are we really going back to the days where every article has slam in the title? Please no

  12. Aren’t they criminals that are being deported first? What did you think they would be arriving with. Personalized gifts bags?

  13. They are all US criminals.

    Of course they be handcuffed

    Even Brazil doesn’t want their own citizens back

    FUCKING LOL 😂😂😂😂

  14. The Brazilian government probably has no clue about the word “White Supremacists.” Hispanics are the next Palestinians to get eliminated from the earth. There are many brown Hispanics and white American Hispanics across America.

  15. The democratic nations of the world should just relax. After all, the Republican Party rulers aren’t loading them onto trains and shipping them straight into the gas chambers, like last time. …. Yet. 

  16. Why are we releasing criminals? They’ll just make their way back into the U.S. or does MAGA think their wall is more secure than prisons?

  17. Republicans say they are all hard core gang members who are raping and killing everyone in sight. Who are they really? Someone in the Lowes parking lot at 7AM hoping to do some construction work?

  18. “On the plane they didn’t give us water, we were tied hands and feet, they wouldn’t even let us go to the bathroom, it was basically Spirit Airlines” he told AFP.

  19. I can understand them being cuffed and shackled for everyone’s safety. Some of them are bound to be angry and desperate. They should have been given water and allowed to use the restroom though.
