Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone’
she knew that international travellers were being locked up in immigration detention centres in the US. “I was aware,” she nods. “But I never thought it would have any impact on my holiday.”
“I am not a dangerous criminal. I didn’t enter the country illegally and I had everything I needed to be there.”
Fuck the Trump administration, but also fuck this privileged bitch in particular
She was aware it happened to others and despite evidence to the contrary just bought the US government’s narrative that those all were illegals and criminals.

What makes her a privileged bitch? She had a visa, she entered the country legally. In any other non-fascist country this wouldn’t have happened.
