    But the wording implies that the legality of this person’s situation matters for the rest of the sentence, either meaning that being illegal would justify deportation, or not being able to come back after being arrested without reason.

      The wording is establishing who the subject of the post is about. Since their name wasn’t mentioned and you knew who they were talking about I can see that it was super effective.

        I don’t know who they are talking about, I don’t need to.

        And mentioning “legal” doesn’t bring anything to the point of the post, it’s just a side effect of the person’s opinions

          I don’t know who they are talking about, I don’t need to.

          You are very confident you know what they meant for a person that is claiming ignorance of the topic. Bold strategy, hope that pays off for you.
