    It’s not just the undocumented immigrants. It will never ever be only them. The pigs will round up everyone who they think looks foreign, whatever that means. Lock them up and let God sort out the details. Even if the pigs weren’t racist (lol), they’d still have a small margin of error, and all of those false positives are Americans whose lives will be ruined.

    It’s simply irresponsible not to point this out, when the U.S. had this exact issue a century ago.

            “I have extended an offer to President Trump and incoming border czar Tom Homan to use this 1,400-acre property to construct a facility for the processing, detention, and coordination efforts of what will be the largest deportation of violent criminals in our nation’s history.”

            Buckingham said a facility built on this farmland recently bought by Texas will be the final stop for processing migrants before deportation.

            She also promised more Texas land for mass deportation: “The new project that the General Land Office is going to bargain that I have created is the Jocelyn Initiative, in which we will locate appropriate land under my jurisdiction to lease for the construction of violent criminal deportation facilities.”

            I only have the heart to read so much of this. My little family is white and we have moved to a safer state from the deep south. We’re guessing we’ve got about a decade of safety before things get dangerous for us again.

            Trying to strike a personal balance between being aware of safety concerns and not feeding myself large amounts of depressing info.
