Re: This will appeal to sane voters
I didn't say they were systematically staffing, it is the natural consequence of inhumane policies like tearing children from their parents and keeping people in inhumane conditions that sadistic people enjoy it and decent people want to get away from it. Inhumane policies intended to deter are policy. Attracting people who want to participate in that and deterring people who don't is the corollary. I'm sure there were decent people sent to police abu grahib, the sadists still concentrated.Cassandros wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2019 11:53 pmQuoted for truth.VinceBordenIII wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2019 10:17 pm Why must we play games with words?

Re: This will appeal to sane voters
If you haven’t gathered by now, this is not an intellectually honest discussion; they no more believe what they’re saying than anyone else. Sometimes I think it’s just for the traffic.Cassandros wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 12:32 amNo sane person agrees with the wholesale slaughter of people.FSchmertz wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 12:02 amSo I conclude you'd think it wouldn't be nearly as bad a thing if we started a "final solution" as long as they're not really citizens?Cassandros wrote: ↑Sat Jul 13, 2019 11:53 pm There are a couple of points that need to be made here:
1) If it is indeed true that these border camps are systematically staffing sadistic guards and supervisors while moving the decent ones away then there is a serious issue at hand that needs immediate correction. Do you have proof of this, or are you just giving us a nice oral history of German concentration camps to deliberately create false parallels?
2) There is a massive difference between rounding legal, law abiding citizens and putting them in camps with an end game of killing them (one way or another) and catching people who are not supposed to be here in the first place. The former couldn't flee while the latter can opt to just go someplace else.
I certainly do not support such vile ideas and I doubt you do as well.
So maybe read my two points again and see if you can come to a more logical conclusion about what I think.

That was the end of a process that started with this, concentrating people, dehumanising them, gradually staffing up with sadistic guards and supervisors as the decent ones found other assignments. Getting normal folks like vince and cheezy et al to accept that the untermensch were only getting what was necessary and deserved, protecting the fatherland. Miller won't get his final solution because he doesn't have time and american institutions are just about withstanding the assault, but you'll never get a clearer sight of how it started in real time.

Hence your asinine insults.
Again, be better man.
Uh huh, neither of you addressed anything I said. Running scared.
Just no discussion here at all any more.

Re: This will appeal to sane voters
I'm sure they would, at the height of the unaccompanied minor wave they were no Holiday Inn either. But Trumps Zero Tolerance Policy is exacerbating the problem to point that the conditions have become deplorable. In a May 2018 interview, then-White House Chief of Staff John Kelly told NPR a "big name of the game is deterrence" in stopping illegal immigration, and that family separations "would be a tough deterrent." In my opinion they are being treated like shit to punish them. Now they don't deserve a reward for trying to illegally cross into our country, but they shouldn't be treated worse than prisoners of war.

Re: This will appeal to sane voters
The problem is that we now have about 100k EVERY MONTH trying to get in. No country in the world can handle that type of onslaught. Then, the problem is exacerbated with an asylum system that is broken and abused (but nobody seems to want to address or fix). The migrants are being coached on how to beat the system: claim asylum and youre in (eventually) as the numbers are so large we wont be able to effectively verify your claim and youll just be released anyway. Hell, even I see the logic in doing what theyre doing. They end up here regardless. What exactly is your cutoff point though for how many migrants we can let in without dragging the resources of our country into the shitter? Surely you can see the problem of letting millions upon millions of unskilled, uneducated, unvaccicnated people with no plans, no job, no support structure except the government and nowhere to go? Its illogical to think we can just absorb this onslaught with no repercussions.CaptQuint wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 10:29 amI'm sure they would, at the height of the unaccompanied minor wave they were no Holiday Inn either.
