By forcibly sterilizing immigrants being held in detention (read: prisoners) the United States of America is committing crimes against humanity in violation of international law. https://twitter.com/brooklynmarie/status/1305581967254069249

Both the United States gov't & medical professionals within the U.S. have a long history with forced sterilization.

In 1924, in an infamous case called Buck v. Bell, the Supreme Court held that it was lawful to forcibly sterilize disabled people. https://twitter.com/rtraister/status/1305598074690195458?s=20

Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.: "It is better for all the world if, instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind." Buck v Bell, 274 US 207

Buck v. Bell has never been overturned by the United States Supreme Court.

Article II of the "UN Convention on the Prevention & Punishment of the Crime of Genocide" prohibits "imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group" and "causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group"

When the Trump administration took children away from immigrants (who had fled to this country begging for our protection)? That violated clause (e) of Article II https://twitter.com/mattbc/status/1305608918417190917?s=20

ICE / CBP / DHS and HHS are, at a minimum, guilty of attempted genocide.

Those responsible MUST be prosecuted. There are some crimes too terrible...humanity itself has an interest in prosecuting these crimes (inchoate or not).
