In reply to the discussion: Father of Guatemalan girl who died in US custody has 'no complaints' about her treatment, consul say [View all]SunSeeker
(51,302 posts)66. Thou doth protest too much, methinks.
You are the one accusing people of "playing the Blame Game," getting their "undies in a twist" and suggesting DUers aren't part of "a reality-based community," all for expressing concerns about CBP actions based on troubling facts we know. That is what right wing trolls on this site do to us. That is why people are commenting that your posts sound like right wing talking points.
And you do this while asserting in your OP that in your estimation the CBP did "the best they could."
So, you shouldn't get angry when people think you are pushing the right wing pro-Trump line.

Inaccurate headline. The father wants an investigation & her cause of death determined.

When the facts are in, if it is determined CBP was indeed negligent, I'll be happy to condemn them.

I see you think you are the only one who can decide when the "full facts" have emerged.

Hmmm. An incarcerated father, in a position of total weakness, says his incarcerators...

He was speaking to personnel from his country's consulate. He has no reason to lie to them.

So because he was imprisoned, it follows logically that he lied to an official from his consulate?

I'm sorry you think that an observation about people playing the Blame Game is "gratuitous."

I accept that your opinion is different. You are the one who can't accept others' opinions.

I can absolutely accept that others' opinions differ, and I can absolutely comment on them.

You are the one getting "worked up" by people pointing out how wrong and hypocritical you are.

Maybe calling it a concetration camp is too much for you, but the Tornillo camp in Texas is evil.
