How long before we start hearing about death camps? [View all]

They call them "Detention camps." I'm calling them what I believe they will soon be.

What's going on at Guantanamo? Can immigrants sent there talk to lawyers? Do they have any rights at all? Are they safe?

Not to mention all the other "detention camps" where ICE is depositing people.

What happens when Trump & Co. start to realize the cost of imprisoning hundreds of thousands of people, and what it takes to house, feed and clothe them? How long before they realize there's no place to which to "deport" most of them? How long before they decide it's cheaper to kill them than "detain" them?

I truly believe that the regime running America is fully capable of genocide and it's just a matter of time before they go there. And once they start, the victims will far exceed immigrants. It can and will include anyone who displeases or disagrees with "Dear Leader," or his regime.

Some (many?) here on DU will call this a huge "doom and gloom" post. Well, for the past couple of years I've put up posts that were called "gloom and doom." But my answer to that is, take a look at where we are today.

They have hit us with a tremendous political blitz. And if we are to prevail, we must ignore "rules" that no longer count. We must do whatever it takes to get back our democracy. And we must be totally ruthless in defeating those who would enslave us all.
