When transporting detainees, for example, the guidelines say “minors shall be separated from unrelated adults at all times during transport and seated in an area near officers and under close supervision.” The records also say “snacks and water shall be given to minors, pregnant females, and as necessary for detainees with medical conditions,” while being transported “by land.”

Tax dollars hard at work.

        It makes me want to rip my hair out that we’re seeing nazism repeat itself but full-on stupid mode.

        For real thougb, I’d love to get a time machine and go back like 15 years, I would be locked up for being the crazy person and nobody would believe anything I said.

    I feel like an additional major danger here is putting them in conditions where disease can spread rapidly, then pointing to them being hurt by an outbreak and using the very situation they put them in as evidence that “immigrants are diseased” or the like, to fuel further persecution of immigrants both inside and out of the camp.

      Our government has a history of creating narratives like this. They will use every tool to demonize non-white immigrants. The nazis did learn a lot from the U.S. south after all.
