No FEMA camps, but ICE has secret detention and torture network within US borders

With all those FEMA camps laying idle one wonders wtf ICE is up to w/it's recently revealed network of sub-stations, hundreds of them, used primarily to house and transfer alleged immigration violators. Often while committing various infractions of civil rights of natural born citizens. With apparently no transparency and even less accountability ICE agents routinely detain, often torture, and deport individuals w/o regard to any standards of Law Enforcement practice. Writing their own rules as they go.

I think you missed the larger point. The rules ICE is operating under do not preclude ICE agents from abducting, abusing, and inappropriately deporting US citizens. Not immigrants. Abducting, abusing, and inappropriately deporting US citizens. People born and raised in the US are being held and abused by ICE agents who lack proper guidelines to limit their actions. A large population is already known to be non-criminal actors yet they are treated as criminals anyway.

interesting, no one comments on this video because it is neutral.

@capgains

I'm confused about what points you are trying to make.

Proper journalism is supposed to be neutral. Amy Goodman, the lead host for Democracy Now!, would be pleased to hear your criticism that her piece lacks bias.

As to what I wanted: What is it you presume I wanted and came up short on?

I intended to raise awareness and interest in what I see as an aggression against citizens framed in terms by it's proponents that it is aimed at non-citizens.
