So if I come to the US and allegedly commit a crime, do I not have the right to innocence until proven guilt?

You have a right to free speech, a right to be protected from search and seizure, the right to habeus corpus, the right to equal protection under the law, etc.

Yes but only if there's no evidence to suggest I've committed a crime, otherwise the police have the right to search as much as they like, just like a US citizen.

The right to search and seizure is limited in the same manner for non-citizens and citizens.....probable cause.

Well if you were here illegally and declared yourself a refugee, you'd have to spend a fair amount of time in a refugee camp before anything would happen to you.

Refugee Camps. Just like in Hong Kong. And I have been to two of them. Do you think the Bleeding Hearts on here would support that idea? ![]() |
