Another bank calls it quits.

SunTrust thinks, like other banks before, that it is no longer in their interest to finance private prisons, and that includes detention centers for immigrants, what we might call prisons or concentration camps.

The banks are figuring that it is not a terribly attractive business to be in. Maybe they want out before the tide fully turns. People are losing their taste for punishing desperate people.

And yet, and yet. The children still come in on buses in the night. They still go from building to tent to building in single file.

And we will watch. We will watch until Homestead prison is no more. Until there is no separation of children from their families and friends at the border. Because that is where it starts. At the border, where in the judgement of our country we must begin the ordeal for these refugees. Where, some evil minds have figured, we start their purgatory. To show them what a big mistake they are making by running here, by hoping for a better life.

Homestead, and others like it, is an ordeal, deliberately inflicted, to teach that lesson. And it is a lesson the children will always remember. The damage stays with them.

And, we will watch until these places are no more.
