Now that public scrutiny has faded, Cary has approved new ICE office there.

Meanwhile, police have transitioned to a fingerprint analysis system to avoid claims of racial profiling. This system has a 5% margin of error, in which U.S. citizens are imprisoned in these office park dungeons without access to adequate housing, due process or contact with family members.

Did you already have a thread on this?

Great. Where does it say that this is a detention center? Where is your evidence?

That's not my neighborhood, brah.

New gulag, new thread.

But yes, the U.S. government has been making people disappear into unmarked office buildings in your neighborhood for years now.

Today brown people, tomorrow political dissenters.

With your 4 threads now on secret prisons in Cary since 2009, I'm kind of worried that they aren't secret any more.

[Edited on November 27, 2012 at 1:55 PM. Reason : .]

11/27/2012 1:42:49 PM

I'm worried that people will never care until they come for them.

11/27/2012 1:54:37 PM

Will it be a detention center? probably not much more than short term confinements related to processing and onward movement. Given the location, much of the movement will be to/from the airport and to/from area jails where many offenders being held on ICE detainers are housed

"Short-term detention" is the problem. Briskly ferrying people across the country to other hidden prisons before they have any chance of proving their citizenship or contacting their family is the problem. Calling an office building a processing center in order to avoid having to provide for basic human housing facilities is the problem. Using an unmarked commercial building and hidden entrances to avoid public scrutiny and government transparency is the problem.

11/27/2012 2:06:45 PM

I used to be a fed, I dont recall hearing about any super secret shit here

11/27/2012 10:17:23 PM

EXACTLY THE POINT

11/28/2012 12:19:08 PM

^^^you should take pictures next time you're there. b/c as of now, it sounds like you're just talking out of your ass. i mean, maybe you're right, but what evidence do you have?

11/28/2012 12:20:27 PM

I'm past the point of needing evidence.

11/28/2012 12:24:19 PM

having fun, smc?

11/28/2012 12:37:07 PM

haha, "I don't need evidence, I just make this shit up!".

11/28/2012 12:45:28 PM

Not exactly.

I don't need to convince you any more.

Ha, welp, guess I'll just pack my bags and head home then.

11/28/2012 12:56:35 PM

I've been debating with the wrong people. Good practice, though.

11/28/2012 1:01:51 PM

Time to start debating with the voices in your head?

11/28/2012 1:02:55 PM

Maybe that's what you've been doing for years now.

11/28/2012 1:06:01 PM

No, I keep my tin foil hat on all the time.

11/28/2012 1:07:46 PM

I can't wait until they come back in style.
