Outrage is mounting in Georgia and across the United States as the federal government moves to dramatically expand Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention capacity as part of an escalating war on immigrants. In rural Social Circle, Georgia, local officials revealed that ICE intends to purchase a 1.2 million-square-foot warehouse and convert it into a massive detention complex capable of holding up to 10,000 people, a scale of incarceration not seen in the United States since the mass imprisonment of Japanese Americans during World War II.
“for immigrants”
Yes, just keep telling yourselves that, it’s only for immigrants, surely they’ll never be used for anyone but immigrants. Even while ICE is already having trouble finding enough brown people – illegal immigrant or not – to arrest to fulfill their quotas, they’re still buying up and building more space solely for housing “immigrants”. Right. Uh huh.
They’re trying to build massive concentration camps while deporting anyone who is even slightly brown or “ethnic”, often to countries they have zero connection to. So I ask you, who are these concentration camps for?
Hint: System of a Down got it right
It will always be for “immigrants”. But Trump, through an "emergency executive order in the name of national security’ gets to define who is an “immigrant”.
