“Our Constitution does not allow the government to hold people incommunicado, without any ability to speak to counsel or the outside world."

A coalition of civil liberties and immigrant rights groups have sued the Trump administration for detaining migrants incommunicado at the offshore prison camp in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, after they were initially taken into custody in the United States.

      If someone breaks into my house and there’s a huge amount of evidence showing who did it, and I present that evidence to the police, and they do nothing and then the thief comes back and breaks in again, I’m going to be super mad at the police. They failed at their job.

      Mad at the thief too, of course. But also mad at the police. I can be mad at two different groups.

      If someone breaks into your house after you heard they wanted to for over a decade, and you had just been looking at door locks yesterday but decided it wasn’t necessary, the fault still lies with the thief, but you still ignored a clear and obvious threat until after it became realized, which is pretty fucking stupid.
