‘American Pie’ actress says she was detained by ICE while trying to renew her work visa: ‘I have never in my life seen anything so inhumane’

That's a good way for cruelty to come back around. Abuse a hundred thousand people and see if a few don't snap and take it out on those responsible. Seems like domestic terrorism may not be just a right wing hobby for too much longer. Bet authorities suddenly take it more seriously if that does happen.
They're banking on that happening so they can cry terrorism and swing emergency powers into full effect in response. Then they won't even have to detain you they can just shoot you on the spot. They're soft rolling the ethnic cleansing right now but if people start fighting back against it they'll probably stomp the accelerator on it.

It's the same thing, only the leopards have turned around and started eating a different set of faces.
I've never heard stories of people with green cards getting sent to camp prisons though before.

Google torture under George Bush.
Which one?

Like I said. Same leopards. Green card holders just didn't think leopards would eat their faces.
The US has had these internationally illegal and abusive practices for a long time now. It has a whole infrastructure for it.

No, it's just at home now. The CIA has been torturing people in black sites around the globe for decades now. If anything, those conditions were far worse, since it doesn't seem like any migrants detained are getting waterboarded yet.
But not its own citizens. I'm aware of US war crimes and torture. I was never aware of camps holding legal immigrants

It tracks. They captured a German tourist with a valid passport and held her for over a month instead of sending her back. The cruelty is the point.
And a message
-
That's horseshit used to justify sweeping your mistakes under the rug

People should be disturbed that this is happening to ANY human being. Not just celebrities.

She spent 11 days detained.
“I was put in a cell, and I had to sleep on a mat with no blanket, no pillow, with an aluminum foil wrapped over my body like a dead body for two and a half days,” [...] “I have never in my life seen anything so inhumane.”
She went on to describe one incident when she and 30 other women were moved in the middle of the night to a facility in Arizona. During the ordeal, she was forced to be “up for 24 hours wrapped in chains.”From CBC.CA (Eagles is her mother's surname):
Eagles said the detainees at the San Luis facility have no sleeping mats or blankets or windows, and the lights are on all day and night.

WTF
Edit: Americans need to be on the street for this shit and everything else that’s happening
I don’t care how, just get that dictator out of there

I didn't see the comment, but my guess is they were likely referring to Gitmo or El Nuevo Chipote.
Do you think these prisoners are being sent outside the country so they can be treated humanely?

I hate the fucking title of this video so fucking much it pains me to share it, but this is really the best cut, IMO. There's also the full hour version on YouTube if you search "9th circuit Sarah Fabian".
Enjoy!
I have been literally dragged away and locked in a cage overnight for being a miniscule fraction as evasive dishonest and disrespectful as this piece of shit nazi scum was to a judge. these people are at fault for not just locking this bitch up-and for bonus karma, doing it in conditions it defines are okay.
treating nazis with kid gloves is how we got here.

Variety is an Entertainment Magazine, so it's relevant for their readers. If you read a news article about this, they don't mention her work history so much, except as it relates to the business she recently opened in the States.
Makes sense
-
I don't know if I'd call her a 'celebrity'
She was in "American Pie, the book of love." The 9th movie in the Pie series and direct to dvd.
Though she's getting a lot of attention now, and if hawk tuah girl can become a millionaire off a sloppy bj, good luck to Jasmine!

Are these the privately owned detention centers? All I can say the USA has several Dachau's and it could become worse.
Vast majority of immigration detention centers are privately owned
It's a sharp contrast to private prisons where it's less than 10%.

They should, but anecdotes featuring a person you somehow know beyond the specific situation are more potent.

and if people don't think political dissidents are on the list, they're delusional. we may not be the priority yet, but they're checking off demographics at an alarming rate.
but they’re checking off demographics at an alarming rate.
yeah those two arab protestor students that are getting deported- they're essentially getting detained and eventually removed because they spoke out against Israel. it's an attempt to put a damper on speech for the whole country. sort of sending a message to immigrants- you better watch what you're saying or we will get you

MacNamara's 100,000 idiots programme during Vietnam War wasn't a success, so the next best thing for them is to institute the programme domestically and with intended results.
The idiots here are the ICE agents.
10-to-1 they had no idea what to do when a Canadian citizen showed up at the Mexican borderder.
The real scary shit is in the last line:
After her release, Mooney credited media attention and her support network for securing her freedom.
How many people don't have that luxury?
Like, not every lawful immigrant is a C-list actress best known for an American Pie spinoff that didn't even have Stiffler. Surely several are falling through the cracks.

Summary
"American Pie" actress Jasmine Mooney, a Canadian citizen, was detained by ICE while attempting to renew her work visa at the U.S.-Mexico border on March 3.
She described the experience as a "deeply disturbing psychological experiment," including sleeping on a mat with "aluminum foil wrapped over my body like a dead body," being transported in chains, and receiving inedible food.
Officials allegedly told her she was "unprofessional because I didn't have a proper letterhead" on her paperwork.
After her release, Mooney credited media attention and her support network for securing her freedom.
Bunch of barbarians.
