My children's grandkids will be studying the vast similarities between America's Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency and the 1930s/40s German Anti Jew, Blacks, Gypsy, and homosexual behaviour.
I do not live in the USA, I'm a good 10,500kms west of San Diego (which used to be Mexican, right ?) ... but I am an immigrant to this country I have lived in, off and on, for these last 55 years.
