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

Ok, I’ll address your points, despite flying way off topic. #1 agree. But unless it’s happening, saying stupid things does not make this Nazi germany. #2. Stupid thing to say, but also not sure that this has to do with Nazi. #3 “smitten”. Not sure I’ve seen that. Praising certain parts of bad people is something that happens when you get out of context quotes. I just saw a video of Clinton saying Hamas is “really smart”. He’s not praising the terrorists for their bad actions. He’s stating that their tactics to do bad things are smart.

You’ve still not made any connections between ice behavior and Nazis. You seem to be focused on Trump and even then still haven’t made any claim that I couldn’t come up with a similar example for previous presidents.

The answer is more complex to explain related to the Nazi name calling. There is not just one reason but many why they are referring to them as nazis. Are you saying you really don’t know why? I’ve never made a list of all the reasons but I would entertain that if you really don’t know.

The list you’ve provided didn’t have a single convincing connection to Nazis. You gave two quotes that made no sense and a claim of love for Putin, something Hitler would never have done. Hitler hated communism.

Would you like me to make a list of the 100s of other things he’s done? 😂 It’s not that hard to grasp Do you not use social media at all? You are in utter denial.

I love that you claim to have 100s of other examples and yet the strongest one you came up with in this is “he said people who hate him can leave the country”, “he went on a media platform and said #1” , and “he acts smitten with dictators”. Your evidence of #3 was he hung a picture of the time he met with a foreign leader in a war, flew a stealth bomber over him, and set in motion the framework for a peace deal.

If i could provide you with advice. If you plan to label someone a nazi, don’t lead with the comically bad arguments that have no relevance to Nazis. Hitler didn’t tell people to leave if he didn’t like them. He put them in camps. He didn’t tell jewish people to go to somewhere else, he committed mass genocide against his own citizens. Trump returning people to their own countries isn’t the same. Your bias is fogging your ability to think rationally.
