She's not wrong. Heck one of the locations is an ex WWII Japanese internment camp. Clearly we've learned nothing.
So what? Are they run like concentration camps? With thousands marching up to our border in caravans where are we supposed to put them up.... in The Ritz Carlton?
Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez: Trump "operating concentration camps on our Southern border." Really?
Were the undocumented aliens dragged by the scruff of the neck on railroads from their homes to the U.S. side of the Mexican border? Did the Jews try to sneak into Auschwitz-Birkenau? I don't think either happened.
You do understand that she is a moron, right?
Pretty sure the mood in this place is changing. I see more and more of the tribe being shut down. THAT is a good thing!
AOC also says that "Latinos" have a right to come here illegally because they are 'native people'.
Hilarious! The Latino's ancestors came from Spain. You know, those "evil white Europeans". As for their Amerindian side unless their tribes settled within our border rather than south of our border she hasn't a leg to stand on!

We just used "kinder, gentler" terms then, as today. US Citizens of Japanese heritage were put in these camps on US soil back then, whatever term you wish to call them. George Takei has said he and his parents were in one. US Citizens.
Read up on what happened to Joe DiMaggio's Dad back then. My own 1st Generation Italian American Grandma told me her stories of WW2. The family Americanized their surname to not be suspects. She became Anne instead of Anna, and stopped speaking Italian (bi-lingual) out in public. Japanese, Italian, and German US CITIZENS were discriminated against then.
All this happened to our own citizens, and it is still happening today, but today it is Hispanic people, and not just immigrants or migrants but to US Citizens as well. Don't dare speak Spanish out in public, as with my Grandma speaking Italian. You are an ILLEGAL!

Really? You got a link to your claims in your last sentence? By the way, illegal aliens aren't plain ole immigrants either and we have every right to incarserate illegal aliens. Are you going to use the ole racial profiling nonsense as proof of your claims? Don't even go there as it's a lie!
Yes. She's right. We are. She didn't say death camps - she said concentration camps. There's a difference.
Yes.....
Concentration camps that people travel thousands of miles, cross deserts, rivers, scale fences and risk getting killed or raped to get to.
