The child camps definitely are new.
Everyone is aware that children have been taken away from parents or smugglers, but that was based on concern for the childs welfare, and occurred to a small fraction of overall kids.
In a month trump minions filled every single bed in essentially the entire country. Flight attendants all over the country are reporting planes with large groups of brown children in cheap grey sweatsuit.
You cant equate this to anything that has happened since Japanese and native American internments
Agreed.
I remember back in the day being really confused when I was watching Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura. They were investigating detention centers. I don't think they realized that the people in these centers were illegal aliens - they thought they were citizens whose entire families were being locked up. But looking back, I'm pretty sure they were holding areas for immigrants.
Thing is, each "cell" was the size of an apartment and had a backyard with a playset for the kids. It wasn't a literal concentration camp like we've got now.
Trump keeps saying he's just following rules put in place by Obama. As far as I can tell, these rules were put in place by W with the assumption of "yes, you can prosecute an illegal alien as a criminal, but you really should only do that if they did something really bad
beyond crossing the border." That process of prosecution is what "forces" the authorities to separate the parents from the kids. That law was never meant to be a justification for prosecuting a large group of immigrants.
So to say that this has been happen for three administrations is a boldfaced lie when coming from authorities, ignorant when coming from citizens, and racist as fuck coming from both. Also, where are all these pro-life fucks who care so much about babies. Pretty sure they don't give a shit once the baby comes out the vag.
We're several step into the template laid down by the Nazis. But hey, how much damage could Trump really do that couldn't be undone by future presidents, right??
