The Daily Caller has a brief item today about Germany abandoning some deportations when the prospective deportees make too big a fuss. [ Germany Abandons Hundreds Of Deportations Because Migrants Scream Before Flight , by Jacob Bojesson].

Of course, I hope these amount to mere delays, not actual abandonment.

In addition, "A recent eviction of three refugees back to Guinea cost $138,000, because they were considered violent and had to go on a chartered plane." Those three were "convicted criminals," so even that tab might turn out to be a bargain, long-term, for Deutschland.

This isn't a startling, new phenomenon. I wrote about domestic cases here and here.

If we citizens of the West ever again get governments that work on our behalf, the solution for obstreperous deportees will be obvious: Sedate 'em, and ship 'em out. Deportations, ho!
