In a move which even Franz Kafka would have had trouble making sense of, US legislators have today passed a law to ease the lengthy deportation process involving illegal migrants, dispensed with immigration hearings, and given the green light to summary executions at the Mexican border.
Genocide squads have already been recruited, trained and deployed.
Under the new law, any migrant who cannot prove he or she - or 'it', if it is a member of some gender-spasmoid group - can be executed by a firing squad without having his, her or its case heard by an immigration court.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has said it will appeal, but, as it was saying this, two members of the ACLU were led away roughly, by men who looked a bit sinister, to be honest.
