“They’ve beaten everyone here, a lot of people have bled. Brother, teargas. We are immigrants, we are not criminals, we are not murderers,” one of the men reportedly told Noticias 23 in a call.
The detainees claimed a fire alarm was sounding continuously, and a helicopter was heard circling overhead.
Reports of “inhumane” conditions and brutality at the camp, where migrants are held in metal cages as they await deportation, have become commonplace. Donald Trump and Florida’s Republican governor, Ron DeSantis, celebrated its harsh environment as they toured the facility together when it opened last month.

Is there literally no other name for this prison camp besides the one in this title? To the official US documents call it alligator Alcatraz?
Alligator Aushwitz
Yes, Alligator Auschwitz
Camp DeSantis
Well, I hope ICE didn't expect them to just sit and suffer with through the conditions like good little sycophants would right?
No, actually, I do think they expect it. I think they have no idea that people will reach a point where they bite back. They can brandish weapons, they can wear all sorts of armor.
But they're cowards. They're insects, except they are greatly outnumbered, and the quicker more people realize that the fascists are out numbered, the quicker we prevent a lot more suffering.
This article is confusing. Officials report this isn't true, and the article says:
Protesters who have maintained an almost constant presence at the jail’s gates since its 2 July opening said they were unaware of any incident amounting to an uprising, but have chronicled other reports of abuse taking place there.
If there were constant fire alarms and helicopters as the detainee stated, that would have been noticed, right?
I mean, this place sucks, but I'm confused.
I don't trust officials
Well yea, but the protestors?
