ICE Detention Center Agents Must Pay For Their Crimes Against Humanity

What began as a way protect our citizens has turned into a horror scene too brutal for even the sickest of minds. If you don't know about the horrors happening at the border, brace yourself because it's seriously sickening and twisted. Now if you don't know already, ICE has not had the best past, there have been reported several cases of the guards sexually assaulting the detainees, this includes children. They have also been known to use dangerous chemicals without ventilation, leaving the detainees with breathing problems and bloody noses.

A brave whistleblower recently came out and questioned the level of medical care given at the ICE detention facility. She reveled their newest crime against humanity: mass hysterectomies. If you don't know what a hysterectomy is - it essentially means they are permanently and unnecessarily sterilizing women in the detention centers. A whistleblower nurse came out about these atrocities occurring at an ICE detention center in Georgia, and it makes me wonder what is going on in these camps, and if this is not the only one. How horrible it must feel to be stuck inside one of these detention centers and to wake up to a doctor telling them they are no longer allowed to have children. Have we lost our humanity? Why don't immigrant lives matter? The United Nation's defines genocide as

  1. Killing members of the group;
  2. Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
  3. Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
  4. Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
  5. Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

Make no mistake, what they are doing is genocide. ICE detention center agents must pay for their crimes against humanity. The United States is seeking to destroy the culture of immigrants by not allowing them to have children. Human rights are constantly being violated at these facilities. When will the destruction of humanity end?

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
