This is by far the closest thing I've seen to the internment camps of ww2. I don't know who is behind this, but we need to nip it in the bud. Heads need to roll.

Although most people don't knowq, in the UK during WW" some jews of german descent were shipped to camps in Australia. There was a drama about this several years ago with Bob Hoskins in. Elaine (still can't change my profile pic :mad: ) The tigress is here :D

They did it here too. I think heads need to role over this. Bush needs to find out who ordered this and can them.

start page ; articles henderson is coming henderson is an opponent's worst nightmare * googlism *I'm not saying what they are doing is right but consider the following from the article: INS spokesman Arcaute said those arrested had violated immigration laws, overstayed their visas, or were wanted for crimes. What do you propose happen to people who violate immigration laws and commit other crimes? Shouldn't they be detained or arrested? They would be in just about every other country I can think of. The UK detains immigration violators don't they? France arrests people who commit crimes don't they? These kinds of comments are complete BS: Islamic community leaders said many of the detainees had been living, working and paying taxes in the United States for five or 10 years, and had families here. So what? If it was done illegally they need to be stopped. I've lived in the US for 39 years, working and paying taxes for 24 years. If I commit a crime I fully expect to be arrested. Why is this any different? "Terrorists most likely wouldn't come to the INS to register. It is really a bad way to go about it. They are being treated as criminals and that really goes against American ideals of fairness, and justice and democracy," Khan said. Who said anything about terrorism?

They came to the INS to be registered, not to be arrested. It just seems like an underhanded way of getting illegal immigrants out of the country. Shouldn't we do this for all immigrants and not just arabs?

Wrong, they have no expectation of privacy and none of their "rights" have been violated. I think it's highly likely that the INS had no clue how many middle eastern immigrants were here illegally. Which brings me to another point. Why do we call them immigrants? That term invokes an image of "poor" foreigners following the letter of the law and trying to forge a new life for their family in a new country with the idea that they would eventually become naturalized citizens. That simply isn't the case here. We have a collection of foreigners who have broken immigration laws and committed other crimes and only now are they crying about fairness and democracy.

Just because they have broken immigration laws does not mean they are bad people. Ignorance of the law is no excuse, but that does not make them terrorists. If they are legitamately seeking a better life, the INS should allow them to stay by extending their visas, etc.

I just sent an email to the White House, but I doubt he will ever see it. I should have a direct line to GW since I contributed to his campaign!
