You think that's safe? Psh, that's already about politics. You are just trying to not start fights, not follow the rules.

The U.S. isn't a democracy and if you think it is, you are a rube.

That's libertarians for you - anarchists who want police protection from their slaves.

Their headline is hilarious. 'Prison companies could profit'? Prison companies will profit from an increase in incarceration. That's why you'll find them behind every three-strikes law or new 'horrible' crime that is added to the books.

In this case, it's fairly specific - a specific prison company that specifically is the governor's largest donor already has the largest contract in the state with the state and INS.

Rep. Gohmert (R-TX) blows up on CNN... (transcript)

I have no idea what he's on about. Maybe that there was a credible report that he thinks the FBI covered up?
