Is anyone even able to do anything? The UN?
It seems he is getting away with everything.

(6,535 posts)I'm not exaggerating when I say that a fair number of the MAGAts are 100% in favor of genocide and extermination of brown people. And they are for some ungodly reason allowed to remain in positions of power within our various levels of government.

(14,961 posts)No one can stop them it seems and it's terrifying. Someone in this thread said, What are you going to do? Other than protesting, donating, volunteering, I don't know what else to do.
I really was just curious if the situation arises, then what? I know what you are saying most of the deplorables would love it, many don't even consider migrants to be human. Where have we heard that before?

Its more likely there will be an outbreak of Cholera or something.

(14,961 posts)To how things are today, no soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes. Sleeping on concrete, being told to drink from toilets. Not to mention almost half of all CBP agents in a FB group, calling them bodies and making fun of the pic of the dead father and daughter.
My question was hypothetical. I was just curious what other people thought.
maxsolomon
(33,378 posts)or that CPB agents will?
I don't think either will happen. people will die; they're already dying.

(19,107 posts)History is a guide, whenever a group of people is held in secret with a hostile guard force whose leader is demonizing them, atrocities will happen. There is little doubt that murders have already happened. And we know that thousands of prisoners are unaccounted for. We need to demand the missing prisoners be found. I assume a lot of them were released back across the border, but that cannot be taken as fact in this situation.
Mark my words, they will find mass graves in the desert. Trump's rhetoric has guaranteed it.
