Some places in Kentucky have decided to make a profit out of being concentration camps. According to Louisville Public Media:
The number of detainees held in Kentucky county jails contracting with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) increased by 659% from January to August this year, according to a report by the Kentucky Center for Economic Policy.
In January, the Boone County Detention Center (pictured) was the only full time ICE detention center in Kentucky — as it had been for years — holding roughly 120 detainees.
By August, nine county jails were contracted with ICE to hold their detainees, with the total rising to 914.
The figures of the progressive think tank and advocacy group were compiled with assistance from Relevant Research, a firm that computes an average daily population of jails across the country contracted with ICE in two week intervals, based on data from ICE.
As the military sweeps into our cities, and ICE goons terrorize people throughout the country, we’re eventually going to have to face a reckoning over what we have been willing to accept as American citizens.
