From Today's Washington Post
Detainees Drugged For Deportation
This is just plain ridiculous... are they seriously offering up "exciting travel opportunities" to nurses willing to drug people w/ psychotropics (ie Haldol) while they are shipped out of the country?
Mind you, I completely agree that if there is a safety issue (i.e. big, crazed dude flailing about and threatening to kill people) sedation might be appropriate, but this is just getting waaaay too Clockwork Orange to ignore.
Just another example of the "casual brutality" that seems to have infected our foreign relations of late.
