The Look of a Man Stung is Found in the Vice President's Eyes

   It can be an interpretive matter, but the look in Vice President Mike Pence's eyes in pictures of him visiting immigrant detention centers is . . .
  One of a person who is stung and embarrassed.
  President Trump dispatched the vice president to the centers (can I call them prisons?), to show people how good things are going there. Well, maybe some detention centers are in good order. But look what turned up at the second of the two McAllen, Texas, area centers the vice president visited.
  From a USA Today article, we read: "A reporter traveling with Pence described a horrendous stench in the facility and said that nearly 400 men were housed in sweltering cages so crowded it would have been impossible for all of them to lie down."
  Later in the story, we learn many of the men had not showered for 10 to 20 days. No shower facilities were even available until a shower trailer arrived Thursday.
  Whether it arrived in anticipation of the vice president's visit, I do not know.
  I only know we cannot do this. This in America? Should we be indignant that these are called concentration camps? I read in the same USA Today article of how the immigrants cried for food.
  The look in the vice president's eye might have been just what it seemed: The look of someone stung by how dreadful conditions really are.
  The way we are treating them: This is not America's finest moment.
