It hurts to see my fellow citizens treated like this. The great majority of them left Venezuela because they thought things like that could never happen to them in the US. Not in their wildest dreams
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”
