OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL DHS report on the concentration camps:

[dixiegrrrrl]

This DHS report is dated May 30 2019, and covers just ONE area of the many "detainee" sites.

severe overcrowding

A cell with a maximum capacity of 12 held 76 detainees
a cell with a maximum capacity of 8 held 41 detainees
a cell with a maximum capacity of 35 held 155 detainees

Border Patrol agents told us some of the detainees had been held in standing-room-only conditions for days or weeks.

We also observed staff discarding all other detainee property, such as backpacks, suitcases, and handbags, in the nearby dumpster.

We are concerned that overcrowding and prolonged detention represent an immediate risk to the health and safety not just of the detainees, but also DHS agents and officers.

With limited access to showers and clean clothing, detainees were wearing soiled clothing for days or weeks.

We also observed detainees standing on toilets in the cells to make room and gain breathing space, thus limiting access to the toilets.
Border Patrol agents told us some single adults had been held in standing-room-only conditions for days or weeks

Although CBP headquarters management has been aware of the situation at PDT for months and detailed staff to assist with custody management, DHS has not identified a process to alleviate issues with overcrowding.

1. FFS, WWII again. n/t

[HopeAgain]

3. Worse

There's absolutely no justification (not that there were good ones for the Japanese), we are not at war with fascists and imperialists, there is nowhere in this situation where we can claim to be the good guys.

[RKP5637]

4. Yep! No way is the US the good guys, other than in US propaganda. n/t

[50 Shades Of Blue]

2. FUCKERS.

[JudyM]

5. As if standing on toilet seats to breathe isn't enough...

Stealing and destroying all their possessions? “We also observed staff discarding all other detainee property, such as backpacks, suitcases, and handbags, in the nearby dumpster. ”
Who in management authorized this, and for what purpose?!

[mr_lebowski]

8. I would presume that if people are stacked floor to ceiling in the living spaces

There'd logically be very little room left for suitcases and the like.

It's pretty obvious that the Mango Mussolini's genius master-stroke is to make the situation for people seeking asylum so fucked up and unbearable that people will just decide 'maybe it's better here at home in Guatemala' ... and not come.

[dixiegrrrrl]

22. except they are trying to hide the atrocities from the press

I am sure the incoming refugees are not aware of what awaits them.

[pandr32]

28. Looks like many would lose any identification papers

People keep these things in their backpacks and handbags.

[2naSalit]

31. That's the point of taking them away and discarding them.

The perps know this and are doing it intentionally.

[stillcool]

6. sounds just like this....

Definition of concentration camp
: a place where large numbers of people (such as prisoners of war, political prisoners, refugees, or the members of an ethnic or religious minority) are detained or confined under armed guard

[dixiegrrrrl]

13. and this:

It also meets the UN's definition of Genocide:
ANY act with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group.

2.causing serious bodily or mental harm
3. forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
( they are taking the babies away from mothers immediately after birth, now)

Family separation itself is considered genocide by the UN.

[trev]

26. We don't need no United Nations.

The Republicans have been trying to shut that entity down for decades. They certainly don't care about any opinion the world may have--and they are above all law, anyway.

[UpInArms]

7. i have no words

We also observed staff discarding all other detainee property, such as backpacks, suitcases, and handbags, in the nearby dumpster.

[dixiegrrrrl]

14. good reminder....... n/t

[yuiyoshida]

9. I will just leave this here....

[otchmoson]

10. Will the removal of gold dental fillings be next?

What's next . . . removal of ALL personal effects, including gold dental fillings? Nah . . . this doesn't sound like a concentration camp to me (snark).

[Martin Eden]

11. They should be suspicious if herded into the showers

Something other than water might be in store for them.

[keithbvadu2]

12. How long before Trump has that page deleted?

[dixiegrrrrl]

15. I recommend downloading it asap.

It's been a habit of mine since we first discovered him disappearing information.

the tribunals will be using this when the time comes.

[dixiegrrrrl]

32. Which is why we have learned to make pdf copies

and to repost the page as much as possible.

[IcyPeas]

16. there are a few pictures in the linked report, but

THESE PICTURES SHOULD BE ALL OVER THE MEDIA

WHY CAN'T WE SEE MORE PICTURES?

out of sight - out of mind.

I think people don't really believe this is happening.

and THEY ARE THROWING THEIR BELONGINGS AWAY? WHAT THE FUCK?

[Gore1FL]

18. They are throwing the people away.

Their belongings are collateral damage.

[gademocrat7]

17. Crimes against humanity.

Trump and his evil cabal should be in the Hague.

[LiberalArkie]

19. Young blood donors or organ donors?

[lillypaddle]

20. I'm sick

No words.

[spanone]

25. ⇧⇧⇧⇧⇧⇧⇧

[Bernardo de La Paz]

21. Cruelty on purpose. Punish the kids to deter the parents. . . . nt

[llmart]

23. So they had to surrender their money and phones...

hmm....bet that didn't end up in a dumpster. Check the Border Patrol pockets.

Also, the excuse they use for disposing of their belongings is pretty weak: "it may get wet and pose a biohazard". Yeah, like cramming human beings into a small area with no access to showers or health care or whatever isn't a biohazard.

I have said this a gazillion times. I would never follow orders that were against my basic principles of human decency and I would quit the job immediately and live under a bridge out in the cold before I would be a party to any of this. There is no excuse for following orders that are inhumane. NONE.

[malaise]

24. These are crimes against humanity

Who will stop these monsters?

[C_U_L8R]

27. That's a concentrated concentration camp

Send in the International Red Cross. The U.N. The World Court. Somebody!!! This is really happening. Here.

[Lindsay]

29. Why is the House not holding

open hearings about this?

Marathon hearings, because these monstrous things must be exposed everywhere and every way possible.

[donkeypoofed]

30. If ya put some of those GOP snowflakes in there....

....the whining would be ubiquitous. But hey, it's not happening to them so they do not care. Shameful.
