Someone needs to stop the Alligator Swamp detention center before people start dying. [View all]

They're putting up what looks like mobile homes on a concrete strip. No shade around there. Probably no air condition. If they cram the detainees into these make-shift buildings, the way the photos show they're doing in the prisons in El Salvador, there will be casualties.

This is Florida. It's brutally hot. Those people are going to suffocate. It will turn into the Republican's version of a gas chamber.
If they prisoners come out to try to get air, they will probably be shot.

And I guarantee that Trump idiots think that migrants workers can handle the heat better than white Americans can. No, they can't. They suffer. After they work these tiring jobs, they go home and deal with it in silence.
