At this stage the 180 days detention without trial has been exceeded by 71 days - ie 251 days and nobody knows where they are held because visits are not allowed. That in the USA - where the Democrats regularly rip the Constitution apart anyway and Supreme Court decisions are not accepted as final and overruled by Biden - knowing that he is wrong.
Denny - I never justified Apartheid I am just pointing out that the Democrats are worse than the criminals involved in the Apartheid Government have been exceeded by the criminal conduct of the late unlamented National Party. In the USA there are no acts the Democrats can use - but they use their own oppressive tactics nonetheless and is trying desperately to implement a dictatorship like the Chinese who controls the corrupt Biden anyway.
So what is really going on in this case. The Democrats lied about what actually happened on 6 January 2021 and is using it as a propaganda tool to cover up the other flops they have made, hence holding onto political prisoners. without trial. I have no problem with people protesting unconstitutional actions by the Governing Party. However, I cannot understand why the Republicans do not take the matter to the Supreme Court for freeing of the detainees as well.
The situation is that in opinions polls the Biden Administration's popularity has dropped by 18 points in three months time since April 2021 with even the twisted news-media polls showing him being less popular than Trump. The media that is generally used as reference points do not report on -
* the chaos in the Afghanistan withdrawal and the fact that Biden handed the Taliban a list of US Citizens and other people they wanted to extradite and these people are being hunted down by the Taliban and murdered;
* the open-border Mexican border and existing closed border with Canada - letting in over 1,2 million illegal migrants and supporting even child trafficking from 110 countries worldwide - there were tens of thousands of people allowed in without any checking and even where they do have lists of people and children dumped by child smugglers the Government lost track of that happened to the children;
* the inflation rate are getting worse by the day and the working class is feeling the effects with petrol prices going up by about 70% thus far;
* riots and murder is ongoing in some cities in the USA where BLM and Antifa created autonomous zones they maintained and the Police are not allowed in - and the local authorities controlled by the Democrats supporting it;
* the bottom has fallen out of law enforcement and the Cities are continuing to defund the Police and undermining criminality prevention/ - for example car hijackings in Washinton DC is now out of control and a city like Chicago now per capita has the highest rate of murder per capita of any cities in North and South America;
* the mishandling of the Covid virus situation where spreading of the virus are out of control because of a variety of reasons like the open-border issue when tens of thousands of infected people are streaming into the country . The Government is trying to implement measures and the people are never given real reasons for some controls the Government introduce and is widely ignored by everybody. For example where people are not allowed to go to mass gatherings and masking is prescribed as total requirement in all cases - eg I was watching the US Open tennis and in Super-liberal New York and none of the audience are masking up and the people are ignoring the restrictions. Problem is he Democratic Party elite are the worse contraveners of the rules they laid down themselves; and
* the total disregard of undertakings provide to US allies of treaty obligations by the US Government and the international fear that has been created under the Biden Administration - even before the mishandling of the Afghan chaos more than 10% of the US population felt uncertain about Biden handling foreign crisis situations and now it must be way over 20%.
There are a variety of other reasons as well - so the Democrats are actually now run by an internal clique of extreme leftists and the country is now more divided than they ever were in the past ten years,
A sad, but very true situation which the propaganda machine in the USA covering up what really is going on. .
