Today's really a bad day for me, but I have something I need to get off my chest. People being held in federal "detention centers," among them, children. Children. Family separation. What do we get from our administration? BS. BS and obfuscation, what aboutism, shifting the guilt, avoiding the question. Mike Pence, two faced bible thumping bigot can't bring himself to say this is wrong. Our Cheeto complexion pres is proud of the 'job being done by our magnificent border people.'

*con·cen·tra·tion camp
/ˌkänsənˈtrāSHən ˈˌkamp/
noun
noun: concentration camp; plural noun: concentration camps

a place where large numbers of people, especially political prisoners or members of persecuted minorities, are deliberately imprisoned in a relatively small area with inadequate facilities, sometimes to provide forced labor or to await mass execution. The term is most strongly associated with the several hundred camps established by the Nazis in Germany and occupied Europe in 1933–45, among the most infamous being Dachau, Belsen, and Auschwitz.

This is an edit inclusion: Just came across this article and thought it worth mentioning:

The definition tells us what we need to know. Holding areas/detention centers run by our government are concentration camps. That the term is strongly associated with the period which included the Holocaust is immaterial. The reaction to AOC's comments are a symptom of our terminal case of political correctness. If the shoe fits....

I close this with the words of one of my favorite people:

“I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”
