    First you would have to define for me what a "concentration camp" is in your estimation.

    Why? AOC used the term in a negative sense which popularised it and then the ICE bomber used it in his manifesto. So AOC is responsible according to your standard isn't she? Why does her rhetoric need to be defined? Did you define Trump's rhetoric which you said led to the MAGA bomber's actions? I'll be surprised if you respond!

    I agree. Anyone that has grievances against the United States government should be sent to a max security prison for life. Thanks for your deep thoughts on democracy.

    It's a place people don't run towards.

    You opposed the term "concentration camp" so you must have had a meaning of the term in mind which you opposed. It may or may not be what the term is taken to mean, so you need to explain what you reacted to. Please define your meaning of "concentration camp".

    The dictionary definition is...

    noun: A camp where persons are confined, usually without hearings and typically under harsh conditions, often as a result of their membership in a group the government has identified as suspect.

    noun A place or situation characterized by extremely harsh conditions.

    noun: A camp where large numbers of persons—such as political prisoners, prisoners of war, refugees—are detained for the purpose of concentrating them in one place. ​

    And that EXACTLY what we have at the border and to which I referred.

    Consider yourself corrected.

    I described ANTIFA terrorists, opion! There's a big difference.

    Fortunately, we have GITMO, the ideal place for terrorists of all kinds. Round them all up and send them there, and that will help preserve our republic and its superior form of democracy. Or, would you really prefer to live in a society ruled by creatures like those who make up the ANTIFA ranks...?

    ANTIFA terrorists. Who might those be? Anyone identified as ANTIFA by? Anybody espouses anti-fascist views? Anyone with views contrary to Trump? Or terrorists generally no matter their view like the guy that mailed sixteen letter bombs to Democrats? I'll go with that one. Extremist terrorists - that covers it. I don't like living in the kind of angry hatred that has become so fashionable that now identifies America. This is getting to be a dangerous place and I'm thankful to be living in farm country.

    People who are part of Antifa identify themselves. The fascism they say they oppose is also defined by them, it doesn't really exist except in their own minds. ANTIFA is a bunch of self important pukes that should and would be squashed if this really was a fascist government. They should get back to class and quit their crap.

    Yes! This is an excellent time to be living in farm country! If several things in my own life were different, I would also like to live in a rural environment.

    Suggestion: keep an assortment of weapons, with plenty of ammuntion, where you can put your hands on both at all times, and if the time comes when you are forced to defend yourself, your loved ones, or your property -- don't hesitate to use them! Remember the old police adage: two in the chest, and one in the head....

    Note: If the sh!t hits the fan in the cities, you can bet that the ravening rat herds (two-legged as well as four-legged) will be headed your way next. And always remember -- one man's 'heroic angel' is another man's 'execrable devil', and vice-versa.... :juggle:

    Except EVERY intelligent person on earth connects concentration camps with Nazi Germany. And if you end your thought with “never again” you completely attached the two. If anyone claims the concentration camps in Germany are in any way similar to what we’re being FORCED to do on our border because we can’t allow illegals to be freed within our country, they're clueless or simply trolling.

    Those aren’t concentration camps. They’re holding facilities that we’ve had for decades and ONLY now being recognized because of Trump. It’s hypocritical hysteria from the left. And the ONLY reason they’re being noticed is because Democrats are purposely withholding funding in order to make it seem like we’re mistreating people.

    And the biggest reason they’re not concentration camps? They can all leave anytime they want. During WWII people in the camps had no rights what so ever. And the Japanese we were holding here couldn’t leave either. You can’t intelligently compare them at all. Sorry. NO!!!

    Man-O-man did you get THAT wrong!
    Moscow Mitch said he would not allow any such funding bill to be voted on.

    The problem, contrary to your spin, is not the Democrats; it's the Republicans!

    No I really don't care about her use of the term. However, she SAID it, and then it was repeated by the ICE bomber. So again, according to YOUR standard, why isn't AOC to blame for the bombing?

    She is deliberately stirring up and stoking violence.

    Ocasio-Cortez believes the detention centers at the border (where far fewer illegal aliens have died annually than during the Obama administration) are analogous to Nazi concentration camps and thus by extension the Holocaust. Apparently, she believes that the 218 tragic deaths in 2018 at the border (471 died in 2012), as a result of a massive wave of illegal migrants into the United States, is analogous to the 6 million Jews who were gassed or starved to death during World War II.

    In the puerile mind of honor student Ocasio-Cortez, the 15,000-20,000 Jews who died on some days in the Nazi death and concentration camp archipelago are analogous to 218 accidental deaths at the border of those who entered the United States illegally en masse. It is hard to calibrate whether Ocasio-Cortez’s anti-Semitic editorializations were designed to downplay the Holocaust or libel her own country—or both.

    But I'm also pretty sure you can't talk reason with a Trumpezoid.
