Malaise, that post you wrote sounds at first reading a bit hyperbolic, but the agents running these US concentration camps are far too much like the "good Germans" who ran the camps in Germany.

It is all about dehumanizing the "scary other" and rationalizing anything that is done to that "scary other" as what the "scary other" deserves.

and he got me thinking about this all night.

Then we have the raids and today the gloved guy in the truck full of Con stickers with a weapon, ammo, a knife and white powder.

This is not fair - this has to be stopped.

Impeach this MOFO NOW!
