Send Them Here

Gotta see this. This is the mayor of my town going live on Fox Chicago explaining why he's all for sending Gitmo detainees to the federal pen in our town. The federal penitentiary located here was the #1 super max facility in the country until about 3 years ago when they opened the one Colorado. When asked if he's concerned about the prisoners staying in the area if they are released Butler states:

“I cannot imagine that they would care to stay here. We don’t have any camels and there isn’t any sand. So, I’m sure that if they were released they wouldn’t be coming here to this community. They’d be going some place else.”

The lady's face is priceless.



He's been mayor since 1964. One of the longest serving mayors in the nation. And he's absolutely right. I work with the former warden from when it was a super max and he said the Marion facility could handle Gitmo detainees with no problems.
