With only 11 days to go before the Democratic National Convention jumps off in Denver, Colorado, the city is preparing space for protesters, in the form of cages topped by barbed wire.

Inside are dozens are metal cages. They are made out of chain link fence material and topped by rolls of barbed wire.

“This is a secured environment,” Capt. Frank Gale of the Denver Sheriff’s Department told CBS4. “We’re concerned about how that’s going to be utilized by people who will be potentially disruptive.”

While many people are reminded of the conditions protesters were held in during the RNC in NYC a few years back, it reminds me of Postville.

I guess I wonder why is there so much horror at the idea or protesters, in the case of the news story, white protesters, being held in cattle like cages but many in the mainstream media saw nothing wrong with immigrants being held in an actual cattle area!! Why is it ok for immigrants, racialized as Latinos to be held in cages and in many ways treated like cattle in how they were moved.

Maybe no one should be treated like cattle?
