Seriously. I have a video on the subject. Theres a lady who is in one of these ice detention centers i talk about named Tara Ammons Cohen. There was literally no videos on the subject when i uploaded it and up till today I get no video suggestions next to it and 23 views.

The last picture I use is of the facility she is talking about on Varick street.

Believe me I know man...

Other people are very ignorant about how far we have fallen from being the beacon of civilization.

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

Forced labor, raids on private residences, parties, places of employment, secret detentions, denying due process.... scary shit in America.

@8Thirst They also hold them in unsanitary conditions for weeks on end and even when there released they can literally be lost from families for any amount of time before there found.

@NJburbsSeeker There is no prison industrial complex. The amount of detentions hasnt gone up at the same time that violent crime has gone down There is no money in detaining people They are not forced to work Illegals are not working for these companies It doesnt not affect the cost of labor Its not slave labor if theyre illegals Slavery was never legal They need to obey "our laws"even the ones that violate that precious parchment we hold so dear Your not brainwashed

@Symbolc0729

Yes I know and some of you are just above it because you know better. If anything we're not doing enough to get rid of illegals. They shouldn't be detained longed than it takes to determine their status and than they should be promptly sent back to their home country, and if they return they should do prison time and than be sent home. Like that have in Mexico.

[NJburbsSeeker]

@Symbolc0729 Yes I keep hearing about the evil prison industrial complex where all these innocent people are being dragged into jail because of evil corporations want to make money. You'll always find examples of abuses or at the very least enforcement of laws we don't agree with. I hardly think the sky is falling.

Check out my page. There is a video about a woman who was adopted and brought here at 5 months by American parents. She broke the law and was arrested and jailed. After she did her time ICE came to pick her up at her release and arrested her for being here illegally.

At the end of that video is a picture of the facility they are talking about. I walk past it all the time.

People are increasingly being put in jail for bullshit because jails are big business in America.

@NJburbs

You cant worry about this liberal/conservative stuff. Its part of the paradigm. They know that people will go along with things because of group think. Most people are also not aware of the many laws that are already in place to put you in one of these places.

Your "I will be more than willing to join the fight against them if this is proposed to be used again American citizens" shows your nobility, but ignoring its use against them will guarantee it will be too late when you fight.
