Yeah, this... Yeah. And the implication of him not having "decided what to do about you". Like, was he gonna inform the government? The same one that allowed Sam Lane commit genocide on people of New Krypton like a week ago? What would that possibly achieve except for putting these guys in danger for, all things considered, an entirely victimless crime. A misdemeanor, assuming US immigration laws apply here.

Like, maybe if one of the aliens was actually dangerous, there could be a discussion, with Superman being sympathetic but having legitimate concerns and them arguing it's not fair to have them all pay because of this one asshole, that would be a discussion worth having. Because this... Is this even a problem? Like, I know JMS doesn't think immigrants have life saving technologies, but is the immigration problem that they don't contribute to the society? Because most of them have nothing to offer except doing jobs and they get tons of shit for that.

Reading this, you can kinda see why Grant would wanna bring back the "FUCK DA POLICE" take.
