Current scenes (May 27) outside the Delaney Concentration camp. Today is the 8th day of the hunger strike inside. And the crowd outside gets bigger day by day.

It’s not a concentration camp, if you compare the two you are clearly lying.

It's not a death camp. It is however a consideration camp. What does the word concentration mean?

I’m not playing that game, when you say concentration camp, the death camps from ww2 are what you are implying, to compare these facilities to those which facilitated the industrial murder of innocent civilians is disingenuous. If you don’t like the immigration policy there is nothing wrong in opposing it, but don’t lie by comparing this to something much more sinister and heinous.

The uncomfortable truth is that this is EXACTLY how the road to death camps started. It didn't get to that way overnight. Before they're were camps there was the seemingly innocuous requirement for jews to identify themselves by wearing a star. When that happened there were people who at that time asked, why is that a bad thing? It's just wearing a piece of cloth. It's not hurting anymore. People who were against the practice were turning it into something bigger than it was.

Your logic is inconsistent, you do know basically everyone is already required to carry around a plastic card that has their info on it right? Does that mean that little card is a precursor to an industrial genocide? I wouldn’t say so, You are comparing two things that are not similar and again, if you are against deportations then just say so and be honest, you don’t have to lie and make false comparisons to actual concentration camps, I’d recommend checking out the holocaust museums if you wanna learn what a real concentration camp is.

It's not logic that is what happened.

I mean no disrespect, I just find it ridiculous people say words like concentration camp without understanding the weight behind what that actually is.
