Once the site of an internment camp for Japanese Americans during World War II, Camp East Montana is made up of six long tents at the Fort Bliss Army base outside of El Paso. On an average day, the facility holds around 3,000 detainees who are living in harsh conditions: They lack sufficient food and often go without proper medical care, according to AP’s review of 130 calls made to 911. Those calls took place in just about five months—from when the tents were quickly constructed in mid-August to January 20.
“Every day felt like a week. Every week felt like a month. Every month felt like a year,”Ramsingh said. He lived in Columbia, Missouri before being stopped at the airport by DHS and sent to Camp East Montana last year. Despite holding a green card and being married to a US citizen, he was deported to the Netherlands in February over a drug conviction from when he was a teenager (which he served prison time for). “Camp East Montana was 1,000% worse than a prison,” Ramsingh added.
Ramsingh said that the alledged bets on who would die by suicide were especially difficult because he had contemplated suicide himself.
Hypernormalized to the point where concentration camps are just another news article on any given day.
Gambling, that’s entrepreneurship, son. That there is protected in America.
That’s a hell of a suffix to add at the end of “just following orders.”
I mean honestly sometimes people are just cogs in a machine. You do work, you don’t consider the bigger picture. Then there’s literally doing the evil shit as a job
Concentration camp guards are a particular kind of people.
They’re the one’s literally doing the evil shit, in my comment
Stanford Prison Experiment
Guess we should all start reading about how to dismantle concentration camps and the logistics involved in liberating starved people. I am told removing the popular razor wire is a nightmare.
Where did you hear that ?
My friend who laid it in Iraq. Don’t worry, he both got blown up and lived to regret his decisions and do better.
Here’s his book. https://mattyoungauthor.com/eat-the-apple/
I wouldn’t expect any less from Americans.
I WILL be taking matters into my own hands if I see an ICE agent
Please do.
