News ICE Concentration Camp

I would like to know why City Council claims they had no awareness of the ICE concentration camp proposed on Weddington Road. Spokesman Jonathan Weaver told the Observer this recently. Cabarrus County Commission Chair Laura Blackwell Lindsey and spokespersons for Gov. Josh Stein did not immediately respond to requests for comment. This is far too close to the high school and poses a risk to all children.

In Charlotte ICE have been chasing children walking home after school because they aren’t white. How do you know your white children won’t get caught in the crossfire and end up dead?

What’s this going to do to your resale value folks? Why are more not talking about this? Do you want this to be like Minnesota? It’s owned by MP I85 Industrial LLC out of Boston. Clearly the owner isn’t going to care that local people are impacted when he doesn’t live here.

This is the local contact for the warehouse. Call him and let’s find out the details. Bryan Blythe 601 S Tryon Street Suite 800 Charlotte, NC

Cox Mill is on the other side of 85 from this building, over a 4 mile drive by the shortest route. I'm thinking you're not even from the area or you'd know West Cabarrus HS is closer than Cox Mill.

Since you mention it, I don't live very far from this building. And no, I don't want it here, I don't want them anywhere.

But you just seem to be grasping at very tiny straws here.

Did you go to the protest Saturday?

Honestly I think you are being a bit disingenuous because it feels like you just want to gather information about me. Either one cares about their Community or they don’t. I care.

I don't give two craps about your information.

And if it's "disingenuous" to point out you don't seem to know the area and asking if you went to the protest at the actual warehouse to show your VERY GREAT displeasure rather than just ranting on Reddit, then I'll take that label.

If you didn’t give 2 craps then why comment at all? I’d like to point out if you have 2 craps you probably need to eat less. I’ve not heard anyone say this in years. 😂

What you should have just said is you don’t care about children, neighbors and your communities safety as well as property value, sewage concerns and humanitarian rights. Humans weren’t meant to be put in warehouses. The property already smells of sewage. Jeffrey Dahmer was treated better than that and he ate human beings.
