That'd prolly be like throwing a lamb to the slaughter. -- nm - Qale Apr 21, 09:18 5
- a kid who successfully commandeered a US ship? he's a star. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 09:18 4
  - I doubt it. He was the captian, he was caught, he'll likely be assumed to have told any thing he knows, and I'm not sure abut Somali Muslim pirates, - Qale Apr 21, 09:21 2
    - thoose somali that have turned to piracy are more into money than religion -- nm - Danedukenuuk Apr 21, 09:28
    - they don't have a cause. they're after the money. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 09:22
  - in 10 years time he'll have been forgotten -- nm - Roger More Apr 21, 09:20
plus, it's his country of origin. -- nm - Roger More Apr 21, 09:17
if he hasn't requested political assylum by then -- nm - znufrii Apr 21, 09:15 12
- I think it's hard for a convicted criminal to get asylum. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 09:16 11
  - cruel and unusual punishment, then, to return him to his home country? -- nm - znufrii Apr 21, 09:17 10

      - true but you can't send people back if there is a fair chance they get killed there - Danedukenuuk Apr 21, 09:33 3
        
        if he's a criminal, he is not a refugee. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 09:33 2
        
        you can easily be both before during and after - Danedukenuuk Apr 21, 09:36 1
        
        Don't be stupid. Just Somalia being dangerous doesn't mean he qualifies for refugee status. - Reagen Apr 21, 09:38
    - if he is in danger there you can't send him back - Danedukenuuk Apr 21, 09:18 3
      - then he goes to Kenya or somewhere else, but no way we give him asylum after convicting him. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 09:19 2
        
        here we have many who are without asylum but can't be send back they are more or less in limbo - Danedukenuuk Apr 21, 09:23 1
        
        in the US, the standards for asylum are pretty stringent. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 09:24
    - how so, is he being persecuted by someone? more like a national hero. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 09:17
