#DeSantis #concentrationcamps#CampBaker
Protesters show up at site of proposed Camp Baker #ICE concentration camp

On the 23ed of August, protesters arrived at the former Baker Correctional Institution. This former prison was closed for human rights violations, now DeSantis wants to reopen it as a concentration camp for ICE.

The protest was small but took place as drenching rain faded to sprinking rain, at a site roughly 2/3'eds of the way from Jacksonville, FL to lke City, FL on US 90. As the protest ended there was an ugly incident of unknown intent. As protesters were loading up their cars, a truck presumably associated with the prison project drove into the driveway to the field the cars were in and blocked it. The truck was between the two police cruisers on either side of the driveway and conversation between them could be heard. As soon as someone got a camera up aimed at this, they wrapped up their conversation and in minutes the truck was gone and the exit route was open. Unknown if that was random chance with that truck having business there anyway, a deliberate "fake kettle" psy-op, or something else.
