ICE fucking needs to be systematically dismantled down to its very core and its members run through the justice system accordingly for all these bullshit crimes, human rights violations, and literal acts of negligence that've led to the deaths of multiple children that they're committing. This is just getting worse and worse.

You got some issues dude

Sorry but my experience with immigrants is not good. In Ireland, the U.K, Israel, or my beloved America. Immigration, illegally, is a virus that needs to be destroyed. ICE is a police force, and anyone who wants it abolished is an anarchic retarded open borders hippy that has not seen what illegals do to the economy.

ICE is an organisation, not a person.

You need to provide real numbers. Where are they?

You posted it yourself.

And no, most are not even being camps. Are all jails concentration camps?
Eh for you they probably are.

Are people in jails being held without charges or intent to file charges? No. People in jails have generally already been charged and will get put on trial.

And no, the are not for Hispanic immigrants. Again there are people in detention who are not Hispanic and the vast majority of Hispanic immigrants are not being detained!

They are for Hispanic immigrants, because Trump is using them to try and scare people who'd otherwise cross the southern border.

And they are being held just long enough to give them a hearing to determine their status.
On average for only around 30 days.

In 2012.
That does not happen in concentration camps.

That people get out eventually isn't a disqualifying factor.

Yes this is the government needing to fix a problem.
Okay, so they should work to fix it.
Which would require new laws and appropriate resources.

And apparently people getting away with torture without even losing their jobs.


No they are not for Hispanic immigrants.
https://www.opb.org/news/article/immigr ... of-origin/

Again only a tiny percentage of Hispanic immigrants are being held.
And not all those being held are Hispanic obviously.

So you are just repeating falsehoods.

And they are being held under suspicion of violating a law. All are intended to receive a legal hearing and will do so.
And yes my source was from 2012. What is your source saying what it is more recently?

Hmm?

So no people being held under suspicion of violating a law while their case moves forward is not concentration camps.

Which part of ICE? You do realize only small portion of ICE is involved in detention oversight, that detention is contracted out, and that ICE is large organization that is not solely involved in immigration matters?

That it also prosecuted arm trafficking and human trafficking amongst other crimes?

Yes ICE’s outsourced detention operations absolutely need to be investigated, reviewed and reformed. But that only involves a small part of ICE.

While I agree the illegals definitely shouldn't be allowed to stay, we should remove them in a civilized fashion, deportation is enough. We have to remember we're still dealing with people here, and they should be treated with dignity.

I definitely agree we do not need a separate ICE and CBP, ICE could (and should) be made a component of CBP.

Though it might still exist just as the border patrol still exists as a CBP component.

Children have died due to negligence in public schools too and hospitals, that does not mean public schools and hospitals do more bad than good.

But actually the children you are probably thinking of were in CBP custody.

Yes the outsourced detention centers are a big issue. We should resolve that.
But ICE still does a lot of good like fighting arms trafficking, human trafficking, etc.

They're being detained indefinitely without charges or a trial.

If it is only for Hispanics crossing the southern border please explain why people who are not Hispanic and who have come over elsewhere have been detained?

Yes, illegal immigrants. Putting someone in detention for something illegal is not a concentration camp. Due to the complexity of immigration law formal criminal charges and a full trial are not always done, but all have been accused of committing and illegal act (being detained for acts is not a concentration camp) and all get a hearing.

And that is not how sources work. If someone provides a valid source, and you have no source, you still lose. You could you know actually source your arguments.

But you do not. It is not my job to find everything possible on the issue only to know you will reject it all anyways and not bother to do your own research.
