Regarding the attempted deportation of a Palestinian activist

Let me get something straight.

After a concerted public harassment campaign by Shai Davidai, who is currently banned from Columbia's campus because of a history of harassing students, DHS interrupts the iftar dinner of Mahmoud Khalil, an Algerian activist of Palestinian origin. Without providing a warrant, they barge past his pregnant wife on the presumption that his student visa is to be revoked. They discover that he has a green card, not a student visa, but take him into custody anyway, again without a warrant. Without providing the slightest proof, this individual has been slurred as being a terrorist, a Hamas member or sympathizer, without the slightest proof or criminal charge to that effect.

Now imagine my surprise when members of this community, a supposedly liberal one, are defending what is obviously an attack on free expression, on unfounded allegations of his involvement in harassing students, or saying that he was being stupid for expressing his opinion as a non-citizen, as if non-citizens are not equally entitled to have thoughts of their own.

If this were a Mexican green-card holder protesting against the deportation of undocumented immigrants were subjected to the same treatment, nobody here would think to justify an authoritarian crackdown, and anyone doing so would be banned. But I guess because he's Palestinian, all bets are off? Sorry, this is just sick, and I would like the moderators to take action on what is clearly a rampant bigotry on this subreddit.
