"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
The Greyhound Station Gulag

Will Grigg: Camp Greyhound, which at one point held 1,200 prisoners, “looked precisely like the pictures … of Guantanamo Bay,” writes Eggers. “Like that complex, it was a vast grid of chain-link fencing with few walls, so the prisoners were visible to the guards and each other. Like Guantanamo, it was outdoors, and there appeared to be nowhere to sit or sleep. There were simply cages and the pavement beneath them.”
