You are advocating for an authoritarian tyranny and a reign of terror worse than what is currently happening.
There is a risk of bad outcomes, true. Unfortunately, I don't see a good way to remove the cancer of the Confederacy.
As to what is currently happening, I suspect the blood of many innocent people will stain the soil of Florida in the coming years. They never did anything to warrant their suffering.
That is a key difference concerning ICE, Border Patrol, Trump, Thiel, and so many other willing members of the Trump Regime: they wanted people to die, just because. Offering mercy to someone who thought it was alright to send children to die in the Florida heat, they probably won't reflect on the morality of their actions.
At what point, does mercy become naivety?
I was given less mercy than these bastards! If it were up to me, I would be firing mustard gas cannisters at them.
It's not a warcrime if they are terrorists.
