Because it is pure crap and only the brainless even remotely consider it. Please explain how ICE detention becomes camps for Americans as you try to make us all think.

I doubt that this is all that they are doing. The American people are being kept in the dark about most of what is going on. What I can not understand is just why this entire administration has not been impeached for
#1: Lying to Congress and the American people.
#2. Sending 3,000 young troops to their deaths for no rational reason.
#3. A conflict of interest in giving Halliburton all of those contracts in Iraq with no competors allowed to even bid.

Because Americans have gotten into the habit of backlashing against intellecual dishonesty. There is so much hysteria in the American mass media that the people can't tell the difference between hype and reality, so they tend to assume it's all hype, and trust the government instead.

ICE facilities are simply a place to hold illegal aliens captive until the processing is complete. They can also be used as holdover sites while transferring prisoners both in and out of state and country.

I should know, I work at the ICE facility located in Kilgore, TX.

Americans denying this makes as much sense as Europeans denying it. Why would a whole continent deny such a thing? Americans do not deny or agree with that statement.

United Statesians on the other hand may.
