Again, Was There Outrage When Obama Used a Former Japanese Internment Camp to Detain Illegals?
I guess the signal flare was fired. The horn was blown. The call to arms was shouted: all morons assemble! Also, if there was ever an example of the Democrat-media complex at work, this is a prime one. The Trump administration is going to use Fort Sill in Oklahoma to hold illegal aliens. Fort Sill was a former Japanese internment camp and the U.S. military has used it for 150 years. It’s not draconian. It’s nothing new. As Democrats freaked out over this development, they seem to have forgotten that Obama has used it to house illegals and it’s temporary. It’s mostly a stopover for detained migrants while the Department of Homeland Security searched to find their relatives. Ed Morrissey at Hot Air has more:
This is sick.
We will look back at this moment in time and ask ourselves what we did to put a stop to these horrific, inhumane policies. Speak up. Speak out. Be on the right side of history. https://t.co/cnm4ME5IVw

It feels as though history can’t yell any louder than this.

The “former Japanese internment camp” in this case is Fort Sill in Oklahoma, which has also housed the U.S. military for 150 years. But “Trump administration to house child illegals at military post” doesn’t have the same ring to it, does it?
. . .The Obama administration used Fort Sill from June to early August in 2014 to house unaccompanied child illegals during the border crisis of that year. Here’s a story from a local TV affiliate in Oklahoma at the time marking the transfer of all children from the base and closure of the facility.
Also referred to as an Army post that has been used to house unaccompanied migrant children in the past.

The "former Japanese internment camp" is also just a U.S. Army base that's been continually operating since the 1860's. https://t.co/EHu7Si2jaO
