    Regardless of the severity of the offense, sovereign nations ultimately have the right to decide who is or is not allowed into their countries.

    If someone finds you trespassing in their garden, they make you leave. If you’re drunk in Kroger, once again, they make you leave. This is perfectly in keeping with the nature of the crime - if you’re in a place where you’re not allowed to be, including nations, you have to leave.
