        If this could happen in that camp, that means most of the reports we got about the camp are not fully right if not false. For someone to fall in love and have sex, the environment most surely be conducive to some certain degree and allow it. Unless this deportees are lying

        So until they are all chained together wearing sacks, sitting on the floor singing soulful hymns you won't acknowledge their suffering?
