This city WANTS a trump concentration camp:

The resolution below was passed by the City Council of Pine Island, Minnesota, on June 19, 2018.  The vote was 3-0, Mr. Hildebrand being absent.

 

What are we to make of this?  I’m sure these local government officials aren’t monsters.  Yet they seem to be operating without a moral compass.  I think they need to hear from LOTS of people, and contact information is below.
