I'm not gone. I just give up on trying to debate this, no offense to anybody. I admire the passion people like Unreg have for their country, but said passion also makes it hard for them to admit when their country does something not so great.
Like i said i'm sure a lot of them were indeed illegal immigrants but it seems kinda un-american to lock 50 of them into a small room even if they are breaking the law and no matter what you say they were targeting middle eastern and that is pure and simple prejudicism and racism. I have no doubt in my mind that some of those people locked away have indeed been outstanding citizens of the US for many years and now just because they are from some country that is associated with terrorism they got locked up like a common thug.
Anywhoo as i said chalk this one up as a victory for your side, i'd rather debate this issue somewhere else. (again no offense to anybody)
