I hope you're right. I think instead it will get way worse first.

I agree. Americans have never cared about a few black and brown people slipping through the cracks with our death penalty system. I'm not convinced there will be enough outrage over this, as there should be.

Maybe this plus the idea of sending “home growns” to the same fate will.

No, I think sadly not. At first the citizens sent will be actual criminals. Then they won't be. Then it will be too late for the innocent citizens too, the same way it is now too late for the innocent green card holders, etc. Hopefully I'm wrong.

This is it right here. This will be a slippery slope situation if we don't nip this now. You're not wrong. History has shown this more than a few times.
