Former acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Tom Homan has called for the deportation of violent undocumented criminals to prisons in El Salvador, arguing that such a move is essential for the safety of American citizens. Homan, who spent 40 years in border security, stated that his experience has taught him the necessity of removing the 'worst of the worst' from the United States.
"We got to protect American citizens," Homan said in a recent interview. He believes that individuals who have committed violent crimes while in the U.S. illegally should face consequences in their country of origin, even if it means imprisonment in facilities like those in El Salvador, which are known for their strict conditions.
Homan's proposal has sparked debate about the appropriate handling of undocumented individuals with criminal records. Supporters argue that it prioritizes public safety and sends a strong message against criminal activity. Critics raise concerns about human rights and the potential for inhumane treatment within the El Salvadorian prison system. The discussion highlights the complex challenges of balancing border security with ethical considerations.
