The defense lawyer subconsciously retorted: "Even if you insist on thinking so, the people and the jury who have watched the video will not think so. They will all believe that my client's shooting to kill them was an absolutely heroic act! We will win the case."

!”

"No, you will lose!"

Chuck corrected bluntly.

"I know you, Detective Chuck!"

The defendant's jewelry store owner looked at Chuck and said in English with an accent: "You helped Tim Chang win the justice he deserved. You are a good person! You are also a hero! I believe you can understand me, right?

"

"I understand."

Chuck said expressionlessly.

"Do you understand?"

The defendant's jewelry store owner looked at Chuck in confusion: "Since you understand, why do you want me to plead guilty? I am innocent! There are similar cases in Los Angeles and San Francisco, and they are all acquitted."

"This is New York!"

Chuck reminded.

"I know this is New York!"

The defendant’s jewelry store owner became increasingly confused: “But just because this is New York, shouldn’t we speak out for immigrants like us? Defend our rights?”

"Indeed it should."

Chuck said calmly: "But you are a legal immigrant, not an illegal immigrant!"

"..."

The defendant's jewelry store owner was stunned and didn't even realize what Chuck meant by his words.

That's the opposite, right?

But he didn't understand, but the elite defendant's defense lawyer and the two prosecutors understood it.

The defense lawyer smiled knowingly.

Executive Assistant Prosecutor Ben Stone and the African-American Assistant Prosecutor looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

Okay!

Here comes the hell joke again.

Detective Amy Santiago also understood this hell joke and kept a straight face and did not want to speak.

She didn't want to laugh at all, she couldn't laugh.

"Detective Chuck, are you wrong?"

A few seconds later, the defendant jewelry store owner stammered and asked: "I am not an illegal immigrant, I am a legal immigrant. As the base of freedom, shouldn't New York protect us like Los Angeles and San Francisco?"

What are the rights of these legal immigrants?”

"Why?"

Chuck looked at him and asked.

"...Because this is New York! It is the dream harbor for all immigrants!"

The defendant jewelry store owner was helpless. He couldn't understand what Chuck was talking about.

"New York is New York, as opposed to Old York in England. It was originally a place for Native Americans. It was occupied by the British and named New York."

Chuck said expressionlessly: "From the legal perspective at the time, the first batch of Americans who settled in New York were all illegal immigrants, not legal immigrants like you!"

"..."

The defendant jewelry store owner was stunned.

holy shit!

Can you still see it this way?

Although he has never studied law, from a basic common sense point of view, as long as the Native Americans are regarded as human beings, then the first Americans are indeed illegal immigrants.

And this is especially true for New Yorkers.

No wonder Detective Chuck said so strangely, saying that New York will respect and protect the rights of immigrants very much, but he is a legal immigrant, not an illegal immigrant. He said it as if the rights of illegal immigrants deserve more protection than the rights of legal immigrants.

Originally, he thought that Chuck must not understand what he said, so he said it wrong.

But now it seems that this is not a misunderstanding, it is clearly a sharp point of view that goes straight to the essence.

yes!

If even the first Americans were essentially illegal immigrants, then for big cities like New York, which symbolizes the beacon of freedom, illegal immigrants seem to be more established than legal immigrants!

It's just that... if he thought about it carefully, he could understand it, but it couldn't stop the sense of absurdity and tearing in his heart.

Could this be the truth?

In the past, it was all myself, including all those who yearned for freedom in the United States. Did they understand it wrong?

Isn’t the correct way to come to the United States through legal customs clearance, work hard, abide by the law, get a green card first, and then officially swear an oath under the stars and stripes to become a true American?

Instead, he smuggles in illegally, climbs the border as an illegal immigrant, hides in black factories, takes to the streets at night with a gun, practices American Iaijutsu, and enters and exits seven times in the prison service industry, a pillar industry in the United States. This is how he is a person.

Real Americans?

If they are illegal immigrants, all their rights are guaranteed. After something like this happens, can they be called heroes, acquitted, appear on shows to get notification fees, or even become famous and publish books, and make a lot of money?

Instead of being like him now, he has become a hero recognized by everyone, but he is targeted by the prosecutor and wants to imprison him for life?

"How could this happen? It's wrong."

The defendant's jewelry store owner understood what Chuck meant, and because his horizons were broadened, he made some reasonable speculations. However, the more he thought about it, the more weird he felt.

"Legal immigrants are much more difficult to come in than illegal immigrants. There are not only asset requirements, but also political requirements. We are required to completely abandon our motherland, or even be hostile to our motherland. Isn't it just to be a real American without leaving any way out?"

In contrast, as long as illegal immigrants are individuals and spend some money or dare to fight hard, they can sneak in from the border, which is much less difficult.

But if legal immigrants don’t have as many legal rights as illegal immigrants, then why do we still use legal immigration channels?!!!”

"Blind student, you discovered Hua Dian."

Chuck nodded sternly.

"Ahem."

Executive Assistant Prosecutor Ben Stone couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted with a cough: "Mr. Kutas, Chuck is kidding you. Of course the law protects the legitimate rights and interests of legal immigrants!"

"Really?"

The owner of the defendant's jewelry store seemed to be in trouble at this moment. He glanced coldly at Executive Assistant Prosecutor Ben Stone, and then looked at Chuck: "Detective Chuck, are you kidding me?"

"Stone is right."

Chuck said expressionlessly: "The law protects the legitimate rights and interests of legal immigrants."

When the defendant jewelry store owner was disappointed and Executive Assistant Prosecutor Ben Stone breathed a sigh of relief, Chuck added: "But the law cannot grant privileges to legal immigrants! This is a right that only illegal immigrants have!"

Executive Assistant Attorney Ben Stone: “…”

Okay!

The jokes from hell are endless, right?

Although Chuck's sarcasm made sense, he just felt it was a bit too harsh.
