America should be ashamed


And now, on the eve of the Fourth of July in the 21st century, the United States of America again has Concentration Camps.

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 . . .


It's been said before:  if you're more upset by calling the camps we've set up to torture immigrants and asylum-seekers on our southern border concentration camps than you are that those camps exist, you have no sense of morality, justice or humanity.

I grew up thinking it could never happen here. I was wrong.
