Kudos for pointing out that prison conditions are a pervasive problem that neither USA party puts at the forefront of their policy statements.  

I think that the 'indistinguishable' part isn't correct: The Republicans drape these initiatives in language and images that relish brutality and mistreatment of prisoners.  I'm not sure the purpose of that but it seems to rally their supporters as well as poking the eyes of people who are openly empathetic of others...

Prison conditions in this instance are avoidable. I wonder why so many illegal aliens choose not to self-deport. 

What do you think, Mike?

I'm not American so it doesn't really matter how public funding is spent. But yeah spending hundreds of millions making a makeshift prison, regardless of quality, is pretty alarming behaviour for a government that spent its first few months in office trying to cut waste from departments. 

If the issue is the cost, why did you bring up quotas? 

Law enforcement operations require financial resources to execute. Building facilities that meet certain standards costs money. You were complaining about the facility before, now you want them to do even less? So, are you OK with deporting illegal immigrants in general, you would just like to see it done in a more cost-effective way now?

They're going to places they know immigrants are and asking for papers. That's harassment. Especially when you're masked in tactical military gear. 

Yes, they go places where they know the illegal immigrants are. Duh. 

That is not harassment; that is enforcing the law.

They're telling people to show up only to deport them. That's cruel. 

No, that is smart policing. You just complained about costs, now you complain about them doing things smart and efficiently.

There are examples of people here legally that have been detained. 

OK, was that "indiscriminately?"

Every day all across the country, law enforcement makes mistakes and they are corrected. This is not unique to ICE.

Here's another awkward argument for the left to defend:

Alligator Alcatraz leans on myth steeped in racism

Don't you think that if I were wrong that I would know it?
