      That’s… my entire point. That we can’t just say “deport all violent criminal immigrants”, because as you can see, one can fall into that legal category without being part of the group you assumed. Context is important.

      Yes, exactly, you understand their point perfectly. Which is why a distinctly un-nuanced kneejerk reaction like “Deport violent immigrants” is neither wise nor helpful.
