Gee I don't know, you're soooo right dude whiiiifffffffttt, nobody deserves to be here or everybody deserves to be here. Like wouldn't it be cooooooolll if everybody could live here? Yeahh dude, boders are for idiots bro...whiiiifiifififffttttt Dude, for real like everyone should be able to come here if they want like why should I get to be here and not them? It's like why should Elon have a spaceship, and I don't.?

Most of us grew up and realized that life isn't fair, not any part. It's not fair that I was born to a very poor family. It's not fair that I was born to an extremely wealthy family. It's not fair that my father beat the shit out of me. It's not fair that I had a loving family. It not fair that I was born without sight. It's not fair that I have 20/20 vision. It's not fair that I was born in North Korea. It's not fair that I was born in Mexico. I was born in the USA, that's not fair.

When I was complaining to my mother that it's not fair, she would say, 'it's as fair as a circus'

No, those really don't matter. What matter is his actions. As a self-admitted leader of Palestinian protests on Columbia's campus he's implicit in the takeover of university buildings (felonies), squatting with an illegal campsite (misdemeanors and felonies), and various other infractions of US law either directly or as an accessory, as well as advocating against the US government.

If you don't have a link to his actions you consider to be felonious, I will understand. He has the right to peacefully protest.

The protests in which he was an admitted leader, included taking over campus buildings and squatting / camping on university property. While he may or may not have been directly involved in those activities, as a leader of the protests he was an accomplice to them.

Thanks for your honesty. He wasn't involved.

He is not responsible for a few who didn't follow the law.

Are pro-life leaders responsible for attacks on clinics and people who work there?

He didn't "peacefully protest." As a self-professed leader of those protests, and the fact they were often violent, makes him complicit. Or, do you agree that the head of the Proud Boys who wasn't present at the Capitol riot should have never been charged for being complicit in the actions of members of his group who were?

It's no different than being, say, the get-away driver in a bank robbery. You didn't go in the bank. You didn't physically rob it. But you get charged with the rest of the robbers for it.

Wasn't he charged with conspiracy? He encouraged them.

Did Mahdawi conspire or encourage people to break laws?

In regards to your example of the get-away driver, he plotted the crime with the robbers.

I'm not psychotic... err, psychic. No idea. Possibly the feds didn't see it as cost effective to charge him, and simply chose to detain and deport him and a Trump hating Obama appointed judge tossed the case. After all, another equal / peer judge found Columbia graduate student Mahmoud Khalil, a cohort of Mahdawi, subject to detention and deportation in Louisiana.

My suspicion is that this is another case of a judge stepping beyond their jurisdiction to rule on US foreign and domestic policy rather than law usurping Presidential power.

He doesn't have to commit any crime to be deported. His being a leader at a demonstration the US government deems is against their interests is sufficient. Remember, he's a guest on a student visa, not a citizen.

Remembering that in Constitutional America the government worked for us, and that we did the deciding.
