We now separate children from their parents at our southern border. The border with Brown people. We tell the parents the children are going to be given a shower. They're taken away not to be seen by their parent again,...for now.
"Showers".
Does this word not resonate historically. Particularly in an ethnic cleansing sense. I like you have been living with this unrefutable knowledge for some days now. Other than noise from the usual suspects. Do gooder human rights sorts. A few journalists. One even at the daily White House briefing that asked for empathy for these children, and families.
Only to be shut down, and passed over for another question. The only response some such about upholding the law. The other "journalists" going on to other trivia.
With a relative handful of exceptions I'm seeing as a country we're okay with this. More interest in upcoming July 4th festivities being shown.
This is a violation of the actual Nuremberg Judgment.
A War Crime.
We are signators of that Judgment where Nazi officials were condemned for doing similar.
Far far worse as well, but they did 'this' specifically.
I mentioned these facts on another page, and was told I'm being alarmists. This as the kids aren't being killed. "They'll be deported with their folks eventually,...alive."
Oh well that's different.
However it does say what we'll now accept as "normal".
Speaking of normal reactions to a moral outrage. I wonder where the hundreds of thousands if not millions of good people are. The "good" who always do the most damage by doing little or nothing in the face of evil,...those good people.
Why are they not in the streets. Out there, and saying this is a line we will not allow our government cross.
I'll stop now.
We know what's going on, and we know doing nothing other than fretful posting like this makes us complicit.
So here we are.
