alt Hacker News> Pretty much you go back to your country of origin
Is this not just? Is this not what every other country in the world would do? Is there a European country you can stay in illegally? Do any of them run remigration programs with cash and free flights to where you came from?
I didn't say it was unjust, nor did I say it was unique to the US, etc. etc.
I said that your logic tree elides the fact that they would be going back to a place that they already accepted an immense amount of risk and effort to leave.
In other words: for many people, the US + ICE risk (relatively low risk of catastrophic outcome) is still far better than their home country (high risk of pretty bad outcome)
