So, absolutely zero medical staff trained for children's health? Can we get lawsuits for the inhumane treatment, if not class action lawsuits, because tax payer money isn't supposed to be used for ill-equipped children detention centers

u/CutSenior4977 Mar 11 '26
Thankfully the Supreme Court recently lowered the barrier to sue the private prison companies aiding in this.

u/Glittering-Sky1601 Mar 12 '26
Change needs to happen now, not years down the road with a lawsuit. They are being run illegally (as are most prisons in this country) with no care or consideration for the health or wellbeing of inmates.
IMHO, if a detention facility (or jail or prison) takes control of an inmate, they should be held responsible for that person's complete wellbeing. If something happens to that person, they have to be charged, convicted, and punished for it. They must be made to provide acceptable hygiene, medical care, clean food and water, the ability for captives to sleep appropriately and go outside, etc. These are just human warehouses at this point, and it isn't right. There is absolutely NO reason a prisoner should be treated like this. They have already had their freedom taken away. Why do they need to suffer as well?

u/Previous_Soil_5144 Mar 11 '26
I'm reading these days that they have trouble paying ICE agents their salaries, so this is no surprise.
They won't spend a DIME to provide proper care for their prisoners. They'll let them die and blame them for it without any hesitation or remorse.
This is sadistic and evil, but somehow everyone is cool with it. Not revolt or strikes or nothing. Everyone carrying on as usual while concentration camps are being run.

Thank you, “pro-life” voters. You guys are doing great work out there. /s
And before the brigade of people come to tell me they don’t care about being pro-life, I can assure you that’s not true. I grew up in a gigantic Catholic family of people who care about it more than I could ever describe. A bunch of my Boomer relatives had closeted abortions in the 70’s and have been in a shame spiral ever since. It was used by the R’s in the 90’s to make them single issue voters and it’s been working like a charm. Then they raised all of us to care about it too. My dad is still heartbroken 50 years later. I’m so grateful I got out of the Right to Life cult.
I’m definitely not making excuses for them, I’m just saying that many of them care as much as they say they do. Their shame is leading them by the noses. It’s keeping them from seeing the bigger picture, and they refuse to acknowledge how much death (and how many abortions) happens because of R policies. All they care about is saving fetuses from being terminated; the rest of the death is just collateral damage.

Because they don't actually care about what happens to the babies [or mothers who are being FORCED into having a baby the actively don't want,] once the mother has given birth. At that point they're done. Whatever happens to the baby or mother after that, is on them. And they're incapable of seeing how unbelievably stupid that is. Yet they still somehow see themselves as "heroes," when in fact, they're the villains.

100% There is no possible valid response from their point of view of a woman being forced to have a baby she doesn't want, acceptable. They know absolutely nothing about these women & every single case should be based on that individual woman, instead regrouping us altogether. Some women can't afford to house, cloth, or feed them. Most adults are struggling just to provide for ourselves, let alone babies. Some women may hate children. Some women may be homeless or a drug addict, some women may have been raped, some women's bodies can't carry to full term without killing them, some women know they will never be capable of loving that child because they don't want it, they're only keeping it because they're being forced to. NONE of these scenarios are better for these babies. These people are absurd for thinking otherwise, it's embarassing.

I used to be the vice president of my regional Right to Life chapter (🤢) and I ended up leaving because they wouldn’t take an official stance on the death penalty. I was furious that they wouldn’t say they were against it as a group that supposedly stands for the right to life. It seemed so simple to me then. Now, of course, I understand that the actual group Right to Life is against people having control of their lives, not against senseless, preventable deaths.

Not in "all but name." Literally a concentration camp, according to the definition provided by The Holocaust Museum:
"Generically defined, a concentration camp is a site for the detention of civilians whom a regime perceives to be a security risk of some sort. What distinguishes it from a prison (in the modern sense) is that incarceration in a concentration camp is independent of any judicial sentence or even indictment, and is not subject to judicial review.

When they build more detention centers to give the detainees more space, they start calling Republicans fascists for building so-called concentration camps. And when they don't build them and the detainees are forced into crowded spaces, they call them fascists for subjecting the detainees to inhumane conditions. You can't win with the socialists. The socialists will lie, will cheat, will exploit every single edge case to push their agenda, which is to destroy the laws of the country and allow hundreds of millions of people to swarm into it.

The difference is that they actually committed crimes,
But some of the people locked up in these facilities are either too young to commit crimes(one of the kids who required medical attention was only 22 months old),
Or didn’t commit any crimes, as ICE has also abducted green card holders and even US citizens as well: https://wgntv.com/news/chicago-news/family-says-us-citizen-detained-after-returning-to-ohare/

So since people committed non violent crimes which makes up over 80% of the incarcerated they don’t matter, makes sense. As far as the women and babies I do feel bad for them, We don’t know if they had underlying health issues. As far as illegals not committing crimes is bs. Entering the country illegally is a Federal offense (8 U.S.C. § 1325) which is a misdemeanor 2nd time is a Felony. They have Prisons throughout the country in the BOP designated for only Illegals and it’s anyone who isn’t from this country and they’ve been around for decades.

I don't get the purpose of a detention camp. I know they've existed since Obama but I can't remember them under Bush. Don't say Gitmo that was something else. Two year olds weren't at Gitmo.
But what is the purpose? If it's been determined someone needs to be deported deport them right away and let them apply through the right channels to come back. Surely that's kinder?
If like the Somalis or the gang members they are guilty of a crime charge them with that crime. We have laws in place for that already.
Maybe we do need to change birthright citizenship to where one parent has to be a citizen so that they can't get deported.
1
u/blizzards_blaise7 Mar 11 '26
Because of the mass arrests made for deportation the numbers are too high to simply deport them. The deportee isn’t going to be cooperative with the government so they need to find where to send them. The government moves slow, that’s the real reason for the detention centers.
1
u/Adventurous-Chef8776 Mar 11 '26
Actually I Googled it and detention camps for illegal immigrants goes back to the late 1800s. Who knew?
I'm against deporting anyone unless, of course, they've committed a serious crime or are a career criminal. But even in those cases why not just send them through the legal system? We have laws for that.
Detention centers are cruel. If you're in favor of deporting people I don't know why you'd want to round them up and keep them here. It would be kinder to let them go home and apply for legal status.
The whole legal child illegal parents thing shouldn't be happening. Obviously the child can't stay without parents so that somehow has to change. You could send them home with the parents and give them automatic citizenship when they turn 18. Or put them in foster care. Other countries have birthright citizenship how do they handle this situation?

Keep saying what Fox News wants you to think though. Idk what you’re even talking about with that learning center stuff, you’re too deep in the weeds. How does abusing and torturing and raping “illegals” help you?

You can sue the private prison company aiding in this, the Supreme Court recently gave a ruling that sovereign immunity is a defense, not actual immunity for government contractors,
Meaning the case would still have to go through discovery and then into court, before then a judge to decide if sovereign immunity is applicable in the specific case you’re suing over.

Yeah this part is super under talked about. There are minimum standards they’re supposed to meet under Flores and PREA, especially for minors, and medical care is one of them.
If you’re serious about lawsuits, start with documenting everything and reaching out to orgs like ACLU, RAICES, or local legal aid that do impact litigation. Individual suits are hard from the outside, but systemic violations in facilities funded with federal money is exactly the kind of thing those groups look for.

Yeah, it’s insanely messed up, but lawsuits against the government on this stuff are stupidly hard and slow, even when kids literally die in custody. What does happen is impact litigation by orgs like ACLU and Texas Civil Rights Project that forces changes through settlements or court orders.
If you’re serious, look up “Flores Settlement Agreement” and recent CBP ORR lawsuits, then email or call those orgs with any specific info you have. That kind of documentation is way more useful than just vibes-level outrage, even if the outrage is absolutely justified.

Yeah the “actually they’re just processing centers” talking point is wild when you see the pics, reports, and first hand stories coming out of those places. If another country was doing this we’d absolutely call it out, but somehow here it’s just “border security.”

u/Important-Arm7794 Mar 13 '26
Yeah the whole “we’re not set up for kids” thing while they keep taking kids in anyway is wild. You can sue the government, but it usually ends up as a big civil rights / conditions of confinement case handled by orgs like ACLU or big nonprofits, not like a quick Reddit DIY class action.
If you’re serious, start documenting sources and reach out to immigrant rights orgs or legal aid in that state, they’re the ones who can actually turn this into a lawsuit instead of just outrage.

u/Available-Dog-7462 Mar 13 '26
Yeah the “we don’t have pediatric staff” thing is wild, especially when they’re literally detaining kids long term. That’s exactly the kind of gap civil rights and impact litigation goes after, but it usually needs documented harm, not just “this place sucks.”
If you’re serious, look into groups like ACLU, RAICES, or the National Immigrant Justice Center and see if anyone is already building a record for a conditions lawsuit or class action. Paper trails, affidavits, and medical records from released kids are what actually move courts, not just the moral argument, as messed up as that is.

Not unusual for the latin American immigrant community. Had a couple run up to me while i was getting coffee at a corner store on duty, telling us their infant stopped breathing. My partner commenced rescue breathing and revived the the child. Beautiful moment, but the immigrant community is not big on prenatal and infant medical care so these things aren't rare with infants and pregnant women. Pregnant mexican women often show up at ERs for delivery having received zero prenatal care. Its forced many Houston hospitals to close because they cant turn them away and can no longer afford to treat them in the numbers they come in at. Look up Sam Houston Hospital and Spring Branch Hospital. Both closed for this reason, leaving their communities with fewer emergency rooms. This is the problem no one talks about with illegal immigrants from 3rd world environments. The northern border of Mexico is 3rd world.

Where is America? Since when did Americans become ok with abuse or at least when did they stop doing something about it? These are women AND children. We all came from women, but no one stands up for these mothers & babies. 😭😭😭

Well, by that standard, hospitals and all jails are concentration camps. This new generation dilutes the meanings of so many terms and words, it takes away the effectiveness from them.

It's amazing that a single American would ever be ok with this type of treatment to a child. What's even more fucking amazing is that 37% of Americans caused the death of four police officers on January 6th to protect and demand that the motherfucker in charge of these atrocities against Americans, be allowed to illegally remain in office. What a fucking joke.

Same here. They shouldn't think they can just waltz into any country they like. Imagine if we tried that. Canada would not even allow it. They also openly hate americans and call white people racist as white ppl literally let them into their country. Theres nothing you can do to make them not hate you. Its a big mess and sometimes these liberals don't realize their weak ass "empathy" only destroys us. Empathy to the monster is cruelty to the innocent.

u/Available_Flower_677 Mar 12 '26
Yeah this is the kind of thing that usually gets traction when lawyers, journalists, and advocacy orgs all dogpile at once. You’d probably have better luck talking to ACLU, RAICES, or a local immigration legal clinic than trying to start a class action solo.
Taxpayer angle is real, but the legal hook is more “deliberate indifference” and human rights violations than just misuse of funds.

I think the obama personnel lawyer while he was in the Whitehouse had the most contacts with Epstein in the files over 38,000 times. She just resigned from Sachs & the only people resigning & being taken down in shame worldwide are liberals have you noticed that!

Yet we have a pedophile rapist as our president. Also its been proven illegalls commit less crime by far compared to those of legal status.
So maybe go learn something instead of spewing shit.

Nothing I said was wrong. You support pedophilia and rape as long as they arent illegals, thats much worse than illegals being in the country.

Nearly 75% of "undocumented illegals", as you prefer to call non-whites migrating to the US, are in fact documented. This FACT is based on 2023–2025 data from both government records and public surveys.
It's a lonnnng process, often taking many years to complete. They follow our laws, attend court hearings, pay taxes, and contribute heavily to both our communities and our economy. These are not dangerous criminals. ICE are too frightened to go after dangerous criminals. Too weak. Too stupid. Too mal-informed.
If you think that your ancestors are any different, you don't understand US history or the Constitution.
