Well I wouldn't go that far, but I'm usually on the "boot all the illegals out" threads. I don't think anyone should be treated like that when there is evidence supporting benign activities, rather than suspicious ones.
I'm always going to be wary of increased government. I didn't like what I was reading about this man's treatment. Imo, it was unnecessary, and certainly nothing like the mollycoddling that the usual illegals receive. I live in CA, so you can see where I'm coming from. It is important to draw a line between national security issues and human rights abuses. If we treat this man like that, why aren't they treating all illegals similarly?

Oh my, stripped naked AND held for three whole months.
Never mind that he was illegal. That he managed to file a lawsuit and collect $37,000 all the while he was here illegally.
Sorry, I still don't buy the story.
