@FLanon Don't forget reunification.

is this going to be yet another non-problem like the unarmed National Guard thing

Depends on what you call a "non-problem"

It isn't really a bad ruling legally

ARE YOU KIDDING

But it's a bad ruling for us

>The Supreme Court just handed the Trump administration a loss on immigration — and Gorsuch was the tiebreaking vote
>The case the high court ruled in involves James Dimaya, a native of the Philippines who came to the United States legally as a 13-year-old in 1992. After he pleaded no contest to two charges of burglary in California, the government began deportation proceedings against him. The government argued among other things that he could be removed from the country because his convictions qualified as crimes of violence that allowed his removal under immigration law.

>The case was initially argued in January of 2017 by a court that was short a member because the late Justice Antonin Scalia's seat had not yet been filled. An eight member court didn't decide the issue, presumably because the justices were deadlocked 4-4. After Justice Neil Gorsuch joined the court, the justices heard the case re-argued. Gorsuch joined the court's more liberal justices in finding the clause too vague.

>The case is Sessions v. Dimaya, 15-1498.

lol a fellow flip

so apparently he isn't being deported because the charge is merely burglary

probably one of those wannabe black guys

@Deleted User what happened to Cake Master Shop vs Colorado Civil Rights Commission?

Masterpiece Cake Shop

vs Colorado CRC

The ruling isn't out yet.

But that's the really important one, and Gorsuch looks like he's reliable there.

It's been like 5 months since they've heard the arguments though

Are they looking for precedents maybe?

No, they'll probably have it in their summer opinions.

>mfw my daughter was non violently raped and murdered by a based brown man
>its okay because we don't know the definition of "violence".
>please convene a group of Jewish activist organizations to write a 10,000 page statute on the definition of "violent crime" please
>BASED GORSUCH PEDE FTW
I'm telling you, brown immigrants will be voting Republican some day. You just watch!!

but it's clear that rape and murder is violent

and if they tried to use the excuse that it requires power+privilege it would simply backfire on them

Burglary is vague, come on.

also this is only for legal immigrants

Despite being in effect in some way since colonial times, Gorsuch thinks that A) a foreign national doesn't know committing 2 burglaries could get him deported B) he has such a right to know and C) contra settled law, deportation is a punishment and not extension of sovereignty

The precedent this will create for immigration lawyers, even for illegal aliens, will be enormous.

F America

"You mean he interpreted the law and not side with politics ? You mean he did what he was supposed to do ?"

~ anon on /pol/

But this is not the law

it is

Our statutes require executive officials to deport anyone convicted of “an aggravated felony.” Immigration law defines an aggravated felony very broadly and open-ended, as a “crime of violence.” 18 U.S.C. §16(b) defines a “crime of violence” to include “any … offense that is a felony and that, by its nature, involves a substantial risk that physical force against the person or property of another may be used in course of committing the offense.”

when it's that vague, it's congress' job, not the SC

Thomas: "The Court’s decision today is triply flawed. It unneces­sarily extends our incorrect decision in Johnson. It uses a constitutional doctrine with dubious origins to invalidate yet another statute (while calling into question countless more)."

"And it does all this in the name of a statutory interpretation that we should have discarded long ago."

God bless this man for blocking amnesty legislation since 2014

you should spend more time praising positive outcomes than whining about non-issues
