The issue with this is, they are people. Entering the country without proper documentations or overstaying a visa does not change that. The US can complain all it wants about the rest of the world wanting them to treat these people with basic dignity, it doesn’t change the fact they deserve their basic dignity.
I would say they are, the deported people aren’t being starved, nor mistreated. They commited the crime and are now being caught and deported as punishment for said crime.
