Summary
Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham offered President-elect Donald Trump a 1,402-acre ranch for deportation facilities.
The ranch, near the Rio Grande, is strategically located and has been previously used for agricultural purposes.
Despite claims of immigrants committing crimes at higher rates, data shows they commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population.
Get your first look at the future site of our next holocaust museum!
Good guys have to win at some point to actually get to that step.
Well it’s either that or a slow and steady decline into complete global extinction of all large animal life including us.
So let’s hope for the museums
Buy a gun today, before people are banned from owning them based on political affiliation
Interesting. When the topic is punishment, there are plenty of resources. When the topic is helping people, it’s “who’s footing the bill for that?!” I never saw a headline about a 1400 acre ranch being offered up to house people in poverty, but it gets offered up to imprison people with the “wrong” names and skin color. And they have the audacity to parade out “America first!” as a slogan to prioritize helping Americans before worrying about solving problems around the world.
Punishing people for allegedly coming here illegally will do nothing to help me. Them allegedly having come here illegally never hurt me. Help people who have been unhoused or addicted to harmful substances or traumatized by abuse to get to a place where that can be productive in our society. That would obviously help them, and then they would be able to help their communities. It’s complicated and it’s difficult, but it’s work worth doing. I’m tired of lazy politicians and leaders looking for quick and easy solutions to fabricated problems so they can maximize the number of boxes that get checked. And that’s a generous read on it. The reality is that they’re greedy whores accepting money and power in exchange for punishing certain people while rewarding certain companies.
Republican politicians don’t give a flying fuck about you and yours.
I don’t think you could have said this any better. Thank you.
Texchwitz
If any state was gonna offer up a huge patch of land for concentration camps, it would have to be texas.
So, some sort of a holding camp? One where they can concentrate a specific type of people defined by political or other genealogical identifiers?
And if they work hard enough, they may be set free.
Holy shit
“They’re not concentration camps, if we call them internment camps” taps head
I wonder if they will eventually gather so many they need to install “showers” to cycle “prisoners” through?
Something to prevent them from being too diluted.
Maybe someone can come up with some sort of brand to help identify and track specific people and their reasons for choosing to be concentrated
Maybe a yellow star, it would be bright and big and very visible. You could wear it on your sleeve maybe?
Or just tattoo a number on their arm.
Texas Offering LAND to someone who wants to DEPORT people has NOTHING to do with building Concentration Camps!

I’ve read the whole thing from top to bottom and “concentration camps” was mention a whopping zero times.
You either read headlines and assume things or just plainly don’t know how to read.
“I mean clearly, it’s a concentration RANCH, FFS”
It takes a first grade reading level to draw the correlation between illegal prisons camps and concentration camps. Everyone else got there but you. Read a history book.
Yes, because they’re just going to flat out state that they’re planning on building concentration camps.
Parent said it has NOTHING to do with building concentration camps. So it would be odd to expect that word in the article. Or did you realize they were being sarcastic? Then I guess you just didn’t like the joke and responded with being pedantic to distract from the point.
Republicans have zero empathy, therefore zero humor or sarcasm function. It’s usually beaten out of them by their father or mother.
Oh I get it, parent is bringing up a point unrelated to the article so we can discuss that instead of the issue of mass deportations! I don’t do sarcasm I guess.
You also don’t do logical conclusions apparently.
And I suppose when chimney stacks start being built its just to keep everyone warm?
When you gather a large population of individuals with the intention to deport them you need a host countrys willingness to except a influx of individuals. This may be a tricky and long bureaucratic process.
This means people could be sitting in these walled “camps” for a very long time, with no ability to freely leave. There will more then likely be full families in these camps, which then over time can turn into slums or ghettos.
Alternatively you could just invade the neighbouring country and ship them all there.
Strange that Texas, which wants a large population of people deported, would also be the first to choose to “open it’s doors” and say “bring them all here”
They offer land freely in their backyard to build what essentially could turn into the equivalent of a slum or ghetto.
I would imagine more like concentration camps.
When the paperwork, effort and/or cost gets too much they’ll just start killing them.
I can’t imagin a neighbouring country accepting a large influx of people quickly or willingly. So Texas may find themselves “looking after” the people they send here for a long time.
I may be wrong on the process, but in Germany i believe it started with a community or neighbourhood being walled off. Think of a suburb or maybe a few large city blocks. People had to come and go through checkpoints and some were not allowed to leave.
After which these walled communities became slums or ghettos. Then the Nazis began to ship peoples from these walled communities out to Poland and neighbouring countries (that they invaded) into concentration camps.
History always repeats itself unfortunately.
Its Texas. They just have to leave it open during the winter. Or the fall. Or the summer. Or probably the spring in a year or two.
Climate change and the inevitable week long power outages because of a self “managed” grid is more than enough to cause mass deaths.
Correct, and keep cashing the federal checks for “border security” Trump will arrange with them.
They need a camp where they can concentrate on helping them!
Private prison gets built there $$$
its right next to the border where texas will happily toss them in the river, or force them to the other side. ‘problem solved’.
If you were to see a article that said Texas is offering land to build a affordable housing neighbourhood, people would probably loose their shit in the USA.
Trouble is the plan is to send full families to these camps. These individuals will be waiting here a long time without the agility to freely leave.
Unless they plan to split women, men, and children apart. That means these camps will need to be built like walled neighbourhoods with schools for the kids while they wait. Housing with AC and heating, electricity, plumbing, fire protection. Streets to get around inside the complex, stores or shops.
Yay! A concentration camp!
Would it be called “Camp Harmony”?
