    Its there in the video with your own eyes, look closely. If they were in their for 40 days, no showers, no razors, theyd all look like Tom Hanks in the middle of Castaway. If no laundry their clothes wouldnt be so clean

    And in the video, you only see one room, them piling in to where all the cameras are, doesnt even mean the rest of the centre is that crowded, you only see one room.

    And lawyers that are paid to get them out of there are hardly going to be objective are they?.

    These are immigration lawyers. They're not paid more if they win a case. Their job is literally to represent some of society's most vulnerable people.

    And if you're going to bring financial incentives into it
    You do realize these are private, for profit facilities right? They're contracted with the government.

    Also I just want to add, a government official has gone before a judge to try to justify why they arent providing soap and toothpaste. This has been confirmed

    The level of denial we're seeing here is fucking amazing

    I spent last Friday night at a greyhound station handing out medicine and snacks, writing down names of families who had come in from detention centers and helping explain when they could get on the bus. Immigrant Families Together. I've started a fundraiser on Facebook and given money to the National Immigration Law Center.

    It's nothing compared to the hard work you've not done for your cause of nihilism. You're the one who won't shutup about the orange guy.

    This is a great proposal, and I was thinking on similar lines.

    The American military budget is bloated and bigger than the next seven countries combined. I would say America could have done more by investing a fraction of the money in the above proposals. This would have also won the friendship of Latin America rather than the hostility with which it perceives America at the moment.

    I also always found it hard to understand why Mexico, neighbor of the world's largest political, economic and military power, should be in such a mess.

    A good visionary American leadership would have ensured that Mexico, being next door neighbors to the U.S., should have been developed as a country to ensure that it becomes a friend and asset to the American nation rather than a liability as it is perceived now.

    This is about concentration camps. Trump and his Republican base have for long complained about illegals who come here and bring their relatives along in CHAIN migration. Trump and his supporters never seem to want to talk about the CHAIN migration relatives they bring to this country. It sure looks like their chain migration policy is race based. Their concentration camp policy is also race based, because you never see white illegals in those places. The US government has reported most visa overstay violations are white Canadians. Trump and his Republicans never call for placing the white Canadians in concentration camps.

    Huh?

    Visa overstayers are already in the country, when found out they just get deported. Why would any country keep them locked up in the country they overstayed

    Thats a silly argument.

    Also US detention centres are NOT concentration camps

    Have you petitioned ol' Webster about it?
    Because by definition they literally are.

    The first "modern" concentration camps happened in South Africa by the British on the Bushmen in the late 1800s. This was actually Britain's most expensive military campaign in history. It's not a very well known historical topic, but I figure if we're gonna talk Nazis, we might as well throw in the origins of the "modern" concentration camp.

    I cant see your picture
    But i'm going to assume it has something to do with Steve Irwin and a poisonous octopus. Or Steve Irwin boxing a kangaroo. Or Steve Irwin cuddling with a huntsman spider
    Or Steve Irwin oppressing some aboriginals in an Australian concentration camp
    Jk on that last one
