Please! those aren't "poor city residents who have been detained in the immigration system and are facing deportation." Those are potential Democrat voters who have as little regard for this country, its laws and sovereignty as do their handlers and advocates.
I do. I also don't believe that the constitution should apply to non-citizens.
Well, the quote was to someone else who stated criminals...not illegals only...don't deserve council.

I believe the Bill of Rights and amendments cover actions, not just government actions to citizens (or non-criminals as other quote suggests) only. It's the supreme law of the land...not the supreme law that only covers citizens. That if someone is here illegal it's okay to enslave them or subject them to cruel/unusual punishment either.

Okay, people can say things that are not related of the thread topic...
I disagree. I think it says something about our morals how we treat others. It's also the current law that just because a person is illegal anything people want to do to them is not okay...as they are not "cut adrift." I think it is just as criminal to beat, rape, enslave, murder or anything else illegal to do to others is still illegal if they are here legally or not. They are still human beings and deserve human rights.
Giving more rights (representation) to an American mass murderer or serial killer than someone here illegally is wrong.

Really?
My genetics professor in college is a non-citizen. Let's say he was accused of murder. Would it not bother you if the government decided to skip the trial and just went straight to locking him up for the rest of his life or perhaps executing him?
If the Constitution didn't apply to non-citizens, that'd be perfectly allowable. Right?
