Welsh tourist in US chained 'like Hannibal Lecter'
-
I think they mean in the cage scene, isn't he chained up and then gets the key off the guy by eating him and wearing his face?
Well why didn't she try that?
-
Hannibal Lecter was straightjacketed, strapped to a hand truck, and muzzled.
And as we all know, simile must always be used with 100% accuracy or it's all bullshit.

After reading some of these stories I would not visit the US right now. Id stay home and stay safe

You mean when they spoke terrorist? /s

They don't want foreigners in that country any more, and are willing to treat them badly to get their message across.
Don't end up in one of their detainment concentration camps, you never know when you'll be allowed to leave, the way they keep suddenly changing how they do things - for the worse - every few weeks, it could be never.
Don't go to that country. It's too dangerous.
Also they might just deport you to some concentration camp in El Salvador for having the wrong tattoo and who knows if you can get out of there ever again. I wouldn't trust anyone saying "they would never do that to tourists" at this point.
Well, you won't see me entering the US anytime soon.

Trump's tenure really exposes how many people work in various law enforcement functions apparently just for the privilege to humiliate and hurt people.
And he is their patron saint now.

Summary
Welsh tourist Becky Burke was detained for 19 days in a US immigration facility and transported in chains like "Hannibal Lecter" after alleged visa violations.
Burke had been backpacking and staying with host families in exchange for help around the house, which authorities suspected breached her tourist visa conditions.
Deported on March 18, she described the ordeal as traumatizing. Her parents criticized the harsh treatment and are considering addressing the issue politically.
Another reminder: these, and all the detention facilities are privately owned and for profit. The motivation is to have a full house to maximize profits.

Our government certainly doesn't want foreigners here, but the people remain welcoming.
I lived in San Diego, CA for the entirety of Trump's first term. He kept making it sound like criminals were flooding in there, and harming us. The narrative was that we were victims, and he was some sort of hero.
The reality was we love our Mexican neighbors... And we fucking hate that asshole for lying and demonizing our friends, colleagues, and family members.
This all said, it is not safe here any longer for us in the long term, or foreigners in the short term. He has lost his damn mind, literally, and his followers are brainwashed. America is unsafe, and unstable.

At all levels too. I mean, why the 24 hours a day fluorescent lights so you don't know night from day? How does that help to control immigration? Hell, how does it even make more money? Even with senior management, the cruelty is the point.

So long as Magats remain in charge, traveling to the US is now like traveling to China. You'll probably see some pretty cool things but also have an above 0% chance for a life traumatizing event.

Can't wait until the summer rolls around and the fascists start arresting kids for setting up lemonade stands and whatnot.
