For nearly two decades alternative media has warned of government internment camps where citizens would be
disappeared, detained and tortured with no regard for their rights. For
nearly two decades the notion has been dismissed by the general population as
just another conspiracy theory.
But a new report out of Chicago suggests that not only are such facilities
real, they have now been actively integrated into the nation’s law
enforcement apparatus.
The Chicago police department operates an off-the-books
interrogation compound, rendering Americans unable to be found by family or
attorneys while locked inside what lawyers say is the domestic
equivalent of a CIA black site.
The facility, a nondescript warehouse on Chicago’s west side known as
Homan Square, has long been the scene of secretive work by special police
units. Interviews with local attorneys and one protester who spent the better
part of a day shackled in Homan Square describe operations that deny access
to basic constitutional rights.
…
“Homan Square is definitely an unusual place,” Church told the
Guardian on Friday. “It brings to mind the interrogation facilities they use
in the Middle East. The CIA calls them black sites. It’s a domestic black
site. When you go in, no one knows what’s happened to you.”

According to those who have been detained at the site against their will
and absent their natural and constitutional rights, the Chicago facility is
exactly what you might expect from a government run internment and detention
center.
- Family members and attorneys are unable to locate a
detainee because those arrested and sent to the black site are never
entered into booking databases. They are simply “disappeared.”
- Detainees are beaten by police in what can only be
described as torture.
- Access to phone calls and judges are restricted so once
you are in there is no way to call for help to let anyone know you are
there
- Attorneys are denied access because the site has been
deemed a high security facility
- People are regular shackled for extended periods of time
Keep in mind that the people in these facilities, because they are never
sent through proper booking channels, are being held without charge or trial,
a gross violation of the U.S. Constitution.
We’ve previously warned that these are exactly the kind of scenarios that would result
from anti-terrorism legislation like The Patriot Act and the National
Defense Authorization Act.
On December 5th [2011], ahead of Congressional voting, Senator
Rand Paul warned that the new legislation would allow the government to
detain American citizens under terrorism laws without evidence, charge or
trial. Specifically, Paul cited the government’s own broad
definitions and characterizations for domestic terrorism or suspicious
activity as involving those who, among other things, own guns, ammunition or
store food.
…
The very fact that this bill was ever penned and allowed to get as far as
it has gotten in our Constitutional Republic is cause for concern. A glimmer
of hope existed for a few weeks when the President claimed he would veto it
if it came to his desk. As has been the case throughout this administration’s
term, however, our hope was for naught. Someone, somewhere needs this
legislation to pass. To what end we can only speculate.
In the following video Senator Rand Paul sounded an eerie warning. As has
been proven with the Chicago black site, his warnings have now come to pass:
Know good and well that someday there could be a government in power that
is shipping its citizens off for disagreements.
…
Do you want to have your government have the ability to send you
to Guantanamo Bay for indefinite detention?
…As a suspect. We’re not talking about someone who has been tried and
found guilty. We’re talking about someone suspected of activities.
Rand Paul, Ron Paul and scores of Americans who repeatedly warned about this
were designated as having gone off the reservation.
It’s not so far out of the sphere of possibility now, is it?
Given the recent activities of government with regards to stockpiling
weapons of war, ammunition, body armor, riot gear, and armored vehicles, one
can’t but help to think that they are planning on something serious taking place in
America.
Evidence for the existence of black sites, known up until this point as
government run internment camps, or FEMA camps, has been presented to the public for years with little interest.
And chances are that the majority of the public will likely brush this report
off as a non-issue, just as they have done before.
But make no mistake. This site and others like it are real. And one day,
should the government be allowed to continue with such operations, it may
well be you or your family members that get detained and disappeared.
And when we say disappeared, we mean disappeared:
“It’s sort of an open secret among attorneys that regularly make
police station visits, this place – if you can’t find a client in the system,
odds are they’re there,” said Chicago lawyer Julia Bartmes.
This is America, 2015.
