Myrick: Gaston County an option for immigration detention and deportation center
January 12, 2008
Detention center plan is halted
Pendergraph had said federal project on way; Jones says it’s off
WOW –
So, which is it?
Representative Myrick’s continued federal suck up for an earmark?
Ms. Myrick continues to measure her effectiveness as a legislator by her ability to incite fear and mistrust in the population. While doing so, also ingratiates herself with the “insider elite” of the Bush Administration. (Re: CAFTA tie break vote = Bush visit to Belmont — more than a mere coincidence).
Maybe this could be placed in the downtown section of Gastonia – it would really perk up the place don’t you think?

Gastonia is a cesspool. There is no better place in the country for a new soviet block style detention center.
