The Town of Southwest Ranches, Corrections Corporation of American (CCA), and DHS / ICE want to build one of the largest immigration detention centers in the nation within walking distance of thousands of homes; thus, reducing the quality of our life and our community. We do not agree with the federal government privatizing our immigration detention centers throughout the nation when there is clear evidence that privatizing our prisons creates a clear public safety threat. For ICE to continue to privatize these institutions and bring this safety threat through their "secure communities Initiative" to our community is unacceptable. Depriving someone of their liberty is a non-delegable governmental function and privatizing of such a function is infecting our nation like a virus.
The Town of Southwest Ranches has now entered into it's
THIRD Fire Contract within the last year now with the Town of Davie, costing taxpayers
$120,000 in ramp up fees. They are now closing several roads in western Southwest Ranches charging the tax payers
$80,000 for the gates. They have paid an unknown amount of money for lobbying with ICE regarding this prison. They have several lawsuits against the Town,
1- Involving Open Meeting Violations on a November 5th meeting concerning the ICE Detention Center,
2- Open Records Violations, and
3- The Town is putting together a lawsuit to sue Pembroke Pines for breach of contract because the City utilized their exit clause and cancelled for convenience their Fire/EMS contract which included water and sewer at the last minute for the CCA prison. In the contract it states that there should be no third party beneficiaries. CCA would be a third party in this instance.
CCA has also filed suit in Federal court against the City of Pembroke Pines saying they are denying them water however the City had never seen a water application. The City did file for a Declaratory Judgement in State Court but that has been put on hold until the Federal Court hears the suit from CCA.
Is ANYONE CONFUSED as to why the Pembroke Pines/Southwest Ranches Fire Agreement was cancelled? The Town Attorney Keith Poliakoff attempted to "slip" into the agreement a portion that
guaranteed water for the prison at CCA's request. This is something that should have been brought up separately. CCA should have brought it forward on their own in a water application. This is sleight of hand that CCA and the Town attempted to do because they were so afraid of CCA being on the Pembroke Pines agenda.
As of June 2012, ICE put out a statement that the site selection was no longer needed due to the fact that the extra bedspace was no longer needed. READ UPDATE HERE!
NOT EVEN my garbage can deserve that piece of garbage!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL holy crap no pun intended but this is funny
ReplyDeleteThose flyers work great for pets to do their business because they are nice and steardy, I am glad CCA use their money to use quality paper so my pets can enjoy it.... because that propaganda is only good to hold $&*%, as its content....
ReplyDeleteThey're also good to use to protect your table from paint when making "No Prison" signs!!!
ReplyDeleteI thought DOGGIE POOP was funny, but this funnier. Using their propaganda to protect the table while we print NO PRISON SIGNS!!!!
DeleteThe thickness of the paper used for the mailer is perfect to MAKE "No Prison" stencils! Thanks CCA!
ReplyDeletecca isnt helping their case with these fliers. everyone ive talked to getting annoyed with the spam (junk mail) if they have money to waste like this ,why dont they put it towards better wages security and training. lol and they want to run swranches? theyre throwing their own money away foolishly now, imagine what their gonna do with taxpayer money
ReplyDeleteThey've already been allowed to shaft the residents of SWR out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, since they only pay $2700 a year in realestate taxes on 20 acres of land they own since 1998. The elected officials of SWR are a bunch of "CLOWNS" They believe they will develop a contract with CCA like no other they've ever seen. Do they really believe they're more "INTELLIGENT" then anyother "MUNICIPALITY" before them. I hate to inform them that even between them they don't have a shining star, or an Einstein. Sorry Council, but your position has gone to your head.
DeleteKeep 'em comin CCA! Everyone finally knows THE BIG SECRET! A lot more "sharks are circling!" Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe previous post is RIGHT!!!, people that STILL didn't know about it, knows it now..........great!! and NOBODY in their right mind will think that a prison/jail/detention center (whatever you want to call it) is good for a community.....regardless of the marketing that they are trying to use.........
ReplyDeleteCan you all imagine the arrogant stupidity and inflated sense of self worth that these Bozos at CCA are plagued with. They've been drinking their own bath water for so long that they believe that thinking people WANT a prison.
ReplyDeleteSo they spend tens of thousands of dollars to tell people who don't know about the prison how good the prison will be for them. LOL!
The only reason they got this far before they met you all is that they kept it silent and we were busy with life.
They forgot that their secrecy and silence as well as buying off the really naive town folk with expense paid sight seeing trips to Potemkin villages. Was key to their success.
Better yet, the presence of the slick marketing blitz debunks the "done deal" mantra Nelson, Wasserman Schultz and the rest of the sellout Benedict Arnolds have been chanting. And we aren't even paying for it.
They are advertising against themselves with their own money.
Hopefully the shareholders won't be pleased with these idiots.
Another Martha Stewart Decorating suggestion, the flyers make good CRUMB SWEEPERS for the table.
DeleteSWEEP THE CRUMBS(CCA)OFF THE SOUTHWEST RANCHES TABLES INTO THE TRASH HEAP!!!!!!
