We are now officially an asshole nation! We have immigrant child detention centers. To what

purpose do we degrade our selves? How is it possible we have become a place that engages in what for all intents and purposes is an act of war against the most helpless in on this planet.

What kind of courage does it take to throw children into cages?

Who are the people working in these places? How do they face themselves? What do they see in the mirror?

What kind of monsters are informing our decision making, and making policy that results in this heinous act of inhumanity?

I would like to find an excuse for this national asshole behavior but that simply isn’t gonna happen. No explaining can ever wash away the horror that we have become.

Enough is enough! In this case it’s way to much!

There will be a special place in Hell for Trump, his minions and the Rethugs. Concentration camps are now a part of the USA.
