You say 'the worst of the worst' And we believed you We let you onto our streets. And you took. You stole children from their mothers' arms Husbands from their wives. Sisters from their brothers. Concealing your faces like cowards. You said 'the worst of the worst' So why are 73.6% of detainees innocent? 48 377 out of 65 735. Read those numbers again. You terrorise us, claiming to take the 'real' terrorists. You can't solve a problem by being the problem. You said 'the worst of the worst' Then why are they gone? Alex Pretti, Lucia Lopez Belloza, Genry Ruiz Gullien. Countless others. Who's calling the shots? Everyone knows. Maybe he gets some sick thrill from this. The bloodshed of his people.
