they are building an ICE detention facility near me
I went there to document it today.
very tall fence topped in razor wire. mirrored windows to prevent looking in. gate to let once vehilce thru at a time
I took photos to document it. employee admitted it was ICE at first then said all the vehicles in the lot belonged to contractor working to finish the interior.
he wasnt happy when i told him that makes him and the employees complicit in ICE's action and they will beheld accountable.

as john lewis said Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.


my next plan is calling out republicans as fascists at the texas state capitol

I've got some news for you, this newly built detention / reeducation center is not for illegal immigrants.  :whistling:

If I had Homan's job, who I think is doing a magnificent job, I would get Sheriff Joe Arpaio as my head of ICE "concentration" camps. The Sherriff knew how to run a prison efficiently and I bet the mere threat of Arpaio running the ICE "concentration" camps would 10X self deportations.

Preparing to blame Rs should an R be elected President in 2016. That the pictures were published in 2014 would be ignored. Being a Dem means the MSM won't point out inconvenient facts.

Yep.  If this facility is actually related in any way to ICE then there are two options:

a.  The facility was built by Biden to imprison illegal aliens.
b.  The facility was built by Trump in an unbelievably short time span (9 days) making it the most efficient construction project ever undertaken by the US Government (or any private entity).  If he can apply this level of efficiency to the rest of the government the reduction in the federal budget will be unheard of.

I don't think the DUmmies like either of those options.  But in reality, looking at the pictures of the building posted in the DU thread, it looks like a modest sized industrial shop or warehouse.  But that won't stop the leftist outrage.

No. Since moonshinegnomie's supposed ICE facility is in the stage of "working to finish the interior", the facility might have been in approval and construction process for over a year.

The property is just 1.65 acres. The building that is already there appears to be a 2-story low-end metal industrial building. It could possibly be a temporary holding facility for ICE soon, but that's all there is room for there. So far, it looks more like people have heard something about what is going on, but I can't find any confirmation for it being ICE-related. It might be, but there's no reliable information available saying so. Just rumors or unsubstantiated stories.

Looks like there's going to be a protest there on February 3, though.

Maybe this is just jumping the gun on something. That's what I suspect.

Thank you for coming back and providing the location. Now, it will be possible to follow what is going on.

A suburb of Austin seems to be an odd place for ICE to set up a major facility. That property is right in the middle of a more or less commercial/industrial area. It just seems like a strange place to build such a facility.

moonshinegnomie chimes back with a pic of the "protest" announcement.  Image search just comes up with the DUmp post, a couple of Threads, one with a dude wearing a Palestinian looking scarf standing in front of what he claims to be the building which is fenced in, and a Reddit post with no responses. 

Google maps shows a bar, a convenience store, a photography studio, and some mechanic/tooling shop.

Have to keep an eye on the news tomorrow to see if anything comes of this.  I forsee not much, personally.

Interesting silliness from moonshinegnomie's OP:

... mirrored windows to prevent looking in. ...

It should not take a resident of Texas or some other genius to figure out that the "mirrored widows" serve two necessary functions:

 :thatsright: Filter the sunlight so those working near the windows are not blinded;

 :thatsright: Decrease the heating effect of sunlight.

 :thatsright: It also prevents wannabe thieves from seeing things inside they might want to steal ... kind of like the windows 6 or 8 feet behind me. My computer company employer would not appreciate the homeless people camping along the creek a quarter of a mile or so from this building to decide to break in and steal one or maybe a couple dozen computers (with God knows how much company-confidential info stored).

So, "dozens" of protesters did show up this weekend apparently. 

https://www.kvue.com/article/news/local/pflugerville-texas-ice-facility-protests/269-439fcaf4-28eb-4a30-b88e-388f6ed9603f

The Austin Party for Socialism and Liberation headed up the protest.  City says DHS is leasing the building, but says it's for office space.  No other fact available so far, not that moonbats let facts get in the way of a good temper tantrum.

They built an ICE detention facility in a neighboring town. I believe it was Triangle Ice Company. I don't know if they store the actual ice there and deliver it to ice machines or if they store the actual machines there.
