Involuntary chemical restraint of detainees, unless there is a medical justification, is a violation of some international human rights codes. The practice is banned by several countries where, confidential documents make clear, U.S. escorts have been unable to inject deportees with extra doses of drugs during layovers en route to faraway places.

Federal officials have seldom acknowledged publicly that they sedate people for deportation. The few times officials have spoken of the practice, they have understated it, portraying sedation as rare and "an act of last resort." Neither is true, records and interviews indicate.

Records show that the government has routinely ignored its own rules, which allow deportees to be sedated only if they have a mental illness requiring the drugs, or if they are so aggressive that they imperil themselves or people around them.

Stung by lawsuits over two sedation cases, the agency changed its policy in June to require a court order before drugging any deportee for behavioral rather than psychiatric reasons. In at least one instance identified by The Post, the agency appears not to have followed those rules.



Keep in mind. These are not gitmo detainees. These are immigrants and illegals being deported.

The United States has injected hundreds of detained foreigners without their consent with dangerous mind-altering drugs for trips returning them to their home countries

Those poor, poor terrorists and radical muslims...

So Rob, everyone who crosses the border illegally is a muslim terrorist?

Man, remind me to buy stocks in Depends.

PS Boo! A mooslim from Costa Rica just stole your cookies!

What, were they out of BatSpray?

I've been on Avitan; it's good shit.

The apologist for this Administration keep making themselves look more like COMMUNIST, OR NAZIS. Do these people even listen to themselves, ROB THE A HOLE, this is AMERICA you fucking CUNT!!! You cannot be this fucking stupid, or well maybe you are.

Is this the Democracy our Soldiers are fighting for?? This Administration is like a slow chinese torture, every day something comes out to makes it truly clear the damage these fucks have done to our reputation around the World an the damage to our Moral leadership in the World, what a disgrace!!!

They should have just tased them.

Celery is LarryMohr crazy!

Now celisary go take your meds.

We all know the words "stupid" "fucking" and "cunt" refers to Wobbie's wife.

Celisary,

I agree with you. Rob the A hole is apparently also a cunt hole.

how dare you insult cunt holes like that

ROB THE A HOLE, this is AMERICA you fucking CUNT!!!

Celisary rules... LOL

So Rob, everyone who crosses the border illegally is a muslim terrorist?

maybe... why take the risk...

Drug them all send them back where they came from... problem solved.

Rob-better idea, just shoot them in the back of the head and bill their families for the bullet. Or maybe just get them together for a nice shower.

A paranoid, delusional cuckhold is no way to go through life, Rob. Though it seems to be mandatory to be a Republican.

cuckhold?

BTW I only deal with Muslim or Hispanic immigrants/illegals when i need my lawn mowed or gas pumped. I know the liklihood of having a bad experience with either group is about the same as being hit by a meteor... but still... Its my country, they should come here legally and peacefully, and if they don't no one should complain when they get a little roughed up...

wow, the tighty-righties really out-do themselves some days.

Another first for The National Security State, formerly known as America. Peddling fear in every way, every day.

Oh, you and your family are next, should you not toe the line.

Know what I mean.

Any theories on what Thomas Jefferson, James Madison or George Washington would have done?

It's clear that America's respect for human rights is almost gone. Republicans never had any but now it seems that their sick criminal immorality has spread to the public at large. As seen by the lack of outcry against these war crimes. America once stood for freedom and justice. Republicans changed all that. Now she stands for greed, torture and murder.

I have an idea. ARob is obviously a shitbag. So why not deport him and his family back from whatever Shitistan they came from? It really wouldn't be a loss and would vastly improve the quality of life in southern New Jersey.

"I only deal with Muslim or Hispanic immigrants/illegals when i need mowed or pumped"

Mrs. Rob

So why not deport him and his family back from whatever Shitistan they came from?

Maryland?

It's a start.

You limpwristers are just angry that the governent is giving away drugs and you hippies aren't getting any.

Keep in mind. These are not gitmo detainees. These are immigrants and illegals being deported.

I'll bet everyone of you would be pissed if you were caught and sent back out of the greatest country on earth.

I guess they should use a flying prison so they could just throw them in back and let them rant and rave all the way home.

As much fun as it is watching you idiots spin like a top, have you actually read the article? It says "For aggressive behavior, 0.5 milligrams twice a day to 5 milligrams three times a day." This tells me that they are not drugging everyone, only the ones who are not cooperating. These assholes are going home wheather they like it or not. Some of them probably figure that an American jail is still better than their own country but that is not our problem.

Good.

You can always count on Whine-Oh-Whine to inject some self-loathing gay bashing into a post.

Thanks for not failing us.

LOVE gas prices!

Don't blame OPEC, Big Oil, India or China. The last two are the Neocon's and big medias favorite bullshit excuse.

Blame AIPAC, the falling dollar, the Military Industrial Complex and of course Bush. Congress is also complicite.

Prices have been climbing since we invaded Iraq and jump with each threat the administration makes at Iran.

Big Oil tried to stop the 1996 embargo of Libya and Iran, but AIPAC pushed it through, costing them billions in lost contracts.

OPEC wants stability of demand and price at just below the value which kills alternative energy projects. They have used their leverage in the past to kill such projects by lowering their prices.

Increased demand from India and China is offset by increased production in Russia and Saudi Arabia.

Middle East instability will not be reversed until the US pulls out of Iraq and Israel is forced to the negotiating table. Israel will never negotiate unless forced to by the US.

Nighty Night..... asshole. Simple, don't be an ASSHOLE and you can enjoy the in flight movie.

Hey Nut....... What thread are you following?

How about having Dr. Kevorkian administer the drugs to these folks. They would be real quiet on the trip home.

Nutcase,


Prices have also been climbing since AlGore started running around spouting his Global Warming Nonsense...should we blame him too?

Sickoflibs: maybe YOU should read the artcle:

Records show that the government has routinely ignored its own rules, which allow deportees to be sedated only if they have a mental illness requiring the drugs, or if they are so aggressive that they imperil themselves or people around them.



But on the morning of his departure, the log says, he "is handcuffed and states he will do what we say." Still, he was injected in his right buttock with a three-drug cocktail.

Welcome to the gulag.

and Israel is forced to the negotiating table

With Hamas?

There's no political solution that will satisfy them. They want the state of Israel destroyed, a world wide caliphate, and have no intention of giving up those ambitions.

The Israelis made a mistake by letting Yassin out of prison. They should have executed him before he had a chance to implement the strategy of the Muslim Brotherhood in Gaza. Now the only real solution is to send them back to Egypt or level the Strip.

The latter being the preferred option.

I get on a plane to pilot it to some 3rd world shit-hole with 10 or 15 people on board who have broken at least one law, and who don't want the plane to go in the direction I'm flying it, and who may likely feel like they have nothing left to live for. I'd give them the Keith Richards cocktail too. With some Amy Whinehouse thrown in for the final descent. And you would too. Admit it.

Nap, I would just toss them into a big cage in the baggage compartment and they could kill each other if they wanted to.

I guess the loosie lefties want a plane to go down because a couple illegals went ape shit. I guess you know the illegal's rights are more important than the rights of the flight crew and paying customers on board.

Ativan is similar to Valium, and rather pleasant.

Haldol is no fun at all.

If you are not psychotic when they give it to you, you pretty much are for about the next 6-8 hours after.

These are the same type of people with the same mentality that have freakin cow and would gladly destroy my life and career if they could catch me smoking a fucking joint... sick bastards.

JR,

Gas prices can be DIRECTLY LINKED to Middle East Instability. Shrub gone wild.

Why has the story of 120 GI suicides per week, originally broadcast by CBS last November, been buried? Is terrorism more important than that?

"I'll bet everyone of you would be pissed if you were caught and sent back out of the greatest country on earth."

Snipe, I wonder just how long it's been since we held THAT title. Half a century? herm

Herm,

If this is not the greatest country then please explain to me why everyone is still trying to get here and not into France or whatever other country you libs think is great?

"If this is not the greatest country then please explain to me why everyone is still trying to get here and not into France or whatever other country you libs think is great?"

Sickoflibs,

You are obviously another repub retard who does not know what goes on outside their shitty little doublewide. Many emigrants are now staying away from the US because its turning into a shithole because fucktards like you have elected rethug leadership. Frans, UK, Spain etc are now the popular destinations.

The real intersting bit is most every American I know floating around Europe has overstayed visas and not received any hassles from the governments. What happens in the US for visa overstay? Getting arrested, drugged and deported?

Land of the free and the home of the brave? More like land of the police state and home of the scare little pussies.

sue

"Haldol is no fun at all.

Makes one wonder about the story last week about the Gitmo detainee that allegedly went boom.

Wow furrhole, you would never know that to look at the southern border. But since you seem to think that France, UK and Spain are so great I would be happy to buy your ticket as long as it was one way.

By the way dickface, I do a little better than living in a trailor. And unlike you, I do it without a handout from the Govt.
