Please share: DHS police threatened to arrest folks who passed out water to people waiting for hours under the FL summer heat at the Miramar @ICEgov check-in center. Temperatures reached almost 100 degrees. Next week, we will pass out water despite arrest threats.

If I get too dehydrated
I could get heatstroke and die in the heat.

If one person whose diabetic,heat intolerant or otherwise compromised in the heat gets hospitalized or needs EMTs to help them because of heatstroke..

The republican party needs to be eviscerated publically and loudly for thier selfish petty fascistic cruelty on every tv channel.

Let it be known the kind of sociopathic sadistic degenerates who don't let people drink water given to them in the hot humid summer sun in those hours long voting lines..

Equate the republican party with psychopathy.

Because that is exactly who they are.

Let it be said republicans like being cruel because that's the kind of people they are.
