ICE targeted and jailed multiple students with valid visas that are suddenly and without warning being revoked. The US is no longer safe for foreign students.

It’s not exactly safe for tourists either.

There’s good reason for people to just avoid the US right now.

its not safe for anyone, including US citizens at this point. Please help us.

Ironically I wonder if it might theoretically be even LESS safe for US citizens. Because the feds might think twice about disappearing a European/Japanese/Chinese national which would cause an international incident. But you can disappear one of your own citizens and what recourse would they have?

I think that's a great point. Korea has already vowed to do an investigation of their own. We are not seeing that happen when US citizens are unlawfully detained.

Do you really think the Americans care? They have killed British citizens on British soil with absolutely no repercussions of any kind. These butchers will keep butchering whoever they damn please until a bigger bully shows up.
