History's bad guys are who, exactly?

A federal judge on Monday ordered the government to transfer all but the most troubled migrant children who have been separated from their families out of an immigration facility in Texas that is alleged to use psychotropic drugs on its wards.

 

U.S. District Judge Dolly Gee found conditions at the nonprofit Shiloh Treatment Center, in Manvel, near Houston, in violation of a 1997 settlement, called Flores vs. Reno, requiring immigration officials to place detained minors "in the least restrictive setting appropriate to (each Class Member's) age and special needs."

 

A class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of children at Shiloh in April alleged that children being held in facilities like Shiloh are almost certain to be administered psychotropic drugs like Prozac regardless of their conditions and without their parents' consent, it says. The suit alleges that the drugs are a "chemical strait jacket" used to manage trauma preemptively.

 

Gee ordered Monday that all children involved in the suit be removed from the Shiloh facility "unless a licensed psychologist or psychiatrist" determines that a particular child "poses a risk of harm to self or others."

 

And she ordered the government to seek consent before giving psychotropic drugs to any detained migrant child. Without consent, the facility may administer such a drug only in an emergency or under a court order, she said.

That's right

 

Not only do we steal (and hide) children from their migrating parents — but then we drug the kids.

 

By golly, that'll keep 'em quiet.

 

 

The moral? — How is American government behavior persuasively different than . . .

 

. . . Nazi doings in the Third Reich's labor camps?

 

Reich-White 'Murika.

 

Makes ya proud, don't it?
