    Deportations should be done by parachute . A Parachute should be offered and if refused so be it .

    IMO, it seems that there needs to be a better protocol established for the logistics of deportation.

    The mental arithmetic that allowed you to come to that conclusion must be fascinating. Or you could be unable to actually comprehend what you are reading.

    These people were trying to be compassionate in what was (and probably will be 90% of the time) a misguided manner.

    If people being compassionate is used as an excuse to justify Trump his behavior and morals then the world truly is on a slippery slope.

    I think they don't like it that even the leftists here think the people on the plan were wrong in this instance.

    They came here for a self-righteous argument.

    OK so I will break it down.
    Let's imagine it was a white skinhead - a real nasty piece of **** that was being deported for the exact same crime.
    People on the plane of course don't know this but we can be 100% sure they wouldn't intervene on this case - but lets say they do! - would that poster have said "Oh they did it in the best intent" ? - No, it would be a case of ... wow how these people on the plane must be such scum defending a rapist ...
    However, when the perp has brown skin the opinion is - he can't have done anything wrong and if he did ... insert some excuse here to dismiss it - this is called bigotry of low expectations.

    The people on that plane were BIGOTS.
    That poster is a BIGOT!

    Feel free to lambast me here, I won't be checking this thread again.
    As Joe Rogan would say - "POST ... and DROP"

    No they're not, that's a pretty dishonest misrepresentation of what they said or your comprehension skills are terrible.

    Am firmly of the opinion that most do-gooders are closet wrong-uns in any case. Be very wary of anyone who must constantly be visibly seen doing "good" things.

    Deportation is already a pretty expensive process without bringing chartered flights for individual passengers into the mix, which would be the only alternative.

    How big of a cannon would be needed to reach half way round the world? We should set up a European fund to build one.

    No need for any plane tickets or accompanying stuff then.

    They were acting on false information, as stated in the article, so you've really no basis for calling them on "stupidity".

    Stupid is as stupid does. At the very least you'd have exhausted all appeals procedures to be deported if not committed a heinous crime. Those people were/are very much stupid.

    This isn't compassion. This is worthless virtue signalling. This is why the Left is losing so much ground in recent years. They put worthless feelings over everything else.

    What information were they acting on? Seems to be no information from what I can see.

    Either way, regardless of the reason for the Deportation, it's none of their business and they should stay out of it.

    What sort of an idiot thinks that a couple of minutes sitting near someone being deported puts them in a position where they know more than the country deporting the person?

    You might familiarise yourself with the windrush scandal before continuing on your tirade.

    And you might familiarise yourself with legitimate routes to air your issues.

    How many of the Windrush generation are likely to be getting deported to Turkey? Or are all Brown people the same to you?

    Does the Windrush scandal now mean that every Deportation is wrong?

    It really doesn't matter what was going on. If you're sitting on a plane and get the urge to start some sort of social justice campaign, dont. Sit down, shut up and go on your holiday, letting everyone else do the same. Spend your 2 weeks in Turkey tapping away on your laptop telling everyone how great you are if you want but don't interfere with anyone else.

    If you can't be bothered to find out proper information about something before diving in, it can't be that close to your heart in the first place.

    I believe that some think that everything others do for someone else is virtue signalling just because they cannot understand/comprehend what it is to be selfless.

    And in cases where officers are breaking the law (which was absolutely not the case in this instance) who should call them out on it?

    Just because someone has a badge doesn't make them a noble hero, irrespective of what Fox says.

    LOL. You're side believes:

    1) You can choose what Gender you are like you would a pair of socks [and can even be neither Male or Female]
    2) "We'll make Socialism work this time."
    3)Feelings trump facts
    4)That mass unchecked immigration will somehow fix our homeless and healthcare crisis.

    You are not the side of sense and reason so drop the smug, condescending attitude.

    And we're on to the merry go round. Some leftists think that, but they are the minority.

    Most are pragmatic, while, being compassionate and open to the evolution of societies.
