Are we just going to watch? What else can we do? I feel so helpless but I also can't stand not saying something about it.

The minute Trump was elected most of us knew that whole groups of people would be treated as less than human, that there would be internment camps, that families would be ripped apart. Well, it's happening now and we're watching it happen.http://time.com/5314826/border-patrol-cages-mcallen-immigration-facility/ …

Here's all the ideas I have: 1 Start by posting and reposting the footage. At the very least let's not let them pretend it isn't happening. Everyone should be reminded every day.

2 Publicly condemn everyone who supports or complies with these policies. Let no one say later that it didn't occur to them that this was wrong, they were just following orders, the experiment must continue, they had public support.

I'm going to get on a flight to LA soon where I'm going to try to enjoy VidCon, because shutting myself away and being miserable helps no one. Do everything you can and then make time to stay healthy, happy, and sane.

I honestly believe it's Tabby whistle time. The best aid that can be provided those immigrant children is the immediate smashing of their cages and their release back to their parents. By baseball bat and hissing if necessary. Placid protest won't fix this.

not that I am defending Trump, but voting for democrats won't solve all problems. It's not as if Immigrants, refugees, irregulars were treated fairly before Trump. These are deep institutional problems that both parties are responsible for to a certain extent.

Funk off nihilist scum. Democrats are not the best, but voting for Democrats is the only way to effect systemic change. Third parties are systemically not viable in the US system. If you want better Democratic candidates work to get them nominated during the primaries.
