Speaker 1 (00:00):
The latest outrage, according to The New York Times, is
it about three hundred immigrants are being held in solitary
confinement every day in holding centers run by Immigration and
Customs enforcement. These are illegal immigrants. We're talking about something
at times forgot to mention, America has come at a
sharp international criticism because illegal immigrants are being held on

(00:22):
civil charges, not criminals, so they shouldn't be in solitary
at all. To make the outrage complete, there's some sob
stories and the illegal immigrant from Yemen was put in
solitary for not following instructions to go to the meal
area and for refusing meals. Poor guy was a devout
Muslim fasting for Ramadan. Another illegal, a gay guy from Mexico,

(00:44):
was held in solitary for his own protection. So you see,
the bigots and homophobes are running things at ICE. Dr
Terry Cooper's a shrink who studies solitary confinement at a Berkeley,
California graduate school, accuses ICE of excessive force by using
solitary confinement because these are civil detentions, and he calls

(01:06):
this a civil rights abuse. The New York Times admits
detained illegals are put in solitary in less than one
percent of all cases. But America is nevertheless guilty those
who broke our laws, of course, innocent, just another reason
liberals are demanding total amnesty for the poor, helpless, innocent
