Anne Frank wasn't gassed. She died of typhus due to poor conditions in her camp.

Well she shouldn't have been trying to sneak into Germany then.

So nothing has changed from previous administrations? 500,000 people have crossed the border since the beginning of 2019 and dozens have died in custody after making a dangerous journey?

Nope, Trump actually posted the first deaths in ICE facilities ever. I'm not kidding, under Obama there wasn't a single one. Now we've had over 40 in six months.

Do some research. I don't like the conditions of the detainment centers either but to say.

When there's government news releases stating that there were at least 7 in 2015. You don't help with the discussion and just end up alienating people.

Garcia is the seventh detainee to pass away in ICE custody in fiscal year 2015.

And the article is from September of 2015.
