Once again, a post from someone who only sees what they want to see, and only has a narrow view of what they perceive to be "reality", based on their own views, not taking facts into account. The United States ranks #1 for imprisoning their own people. Approximately one in every 31 adults (7.3 million) in the United States is currently behind bars, or being monitored (probation and parole). The United States has the highest documented incarceration rate in the world (743 per 100,000 population), Russia has the second highest rate (577 per 100,000), followed by Rwanda (561 per 100,000). Nice to be tops on the list, considering who we beat, right? And American prisons are notorious for Human Rights violations, and are listed as some of the most brutal in the world.

That is from the same Human Rights Watch organization that the Right Wing uses when it is convenient for them to point the finger at treatment of others in other countries, such as North Korea. Notice that the treatment of confined illegal aliens is also mentioned in there. According to your logic, since they are here illegally (and probably Mexican to boot), they deserve this inhumane treatment, right? And what is wrong with La Raza fighting against racism and for equal rights? Or are you against equal rights for all. |
