The people in ICE's concentration camps have mostly done nothing illegal nor do they have a set period before they're released. They did everything they were legally supposed to do and are getting punished for it by getting sent to concentration camps where they will remain indefinitely.
2. Uh, no, that'd be a ghetto.
3. This is a really bad example to pick, mainly becaue of the time period. Or do you not remember that the US had concentration camps in the 1940's for Japanese Americans and immigrants?
1. Actually pre trial detention is a thing. 2. Also all those being held in by ICE are suspected of being in the US illegally. The burden is on the asylum seeker to prove their asylum claim, not the other way around.
And again the average time is 34 days.
3. That type of ghetto is a type of concentration camp really.
4. And yes the Japanese interment camps were actual concentration camps.
1. Yeah, that's obviously true, or we wouldn't have those camps to begin with.
2. Yeah, they got picked up after requesting asylum and being allowed to enter the country legally, that obviously means they're here illegally.
3. No it's not, it's a ghetto. That's why we have the word: Ghetto.
4. As are the ones the US government is currently running, except they have worse conditions.
