Springfield Ohio: Haitians grabbing pond ducks, cutting the heads & eating them
Trump's comment, no matter what you think about it, has had the country talking about immigration for three straight days. How many independents might now have immigration as one of, if not the deciding factor on election day now? I think this is a net positive for Trump. Only the dems are outraged and they weren't voting for him anyway.

Very well said. The accusations of racism and lies are fodder for the useful idiots. It worked well on them. No one else.
Quote:Singer John Legend came under fire after telling Springfield, Ohio residents to "embrace" the 20,000 Haitian migrants who were relocated to their city, which is also the singer's hometown.
The comments came after residents have been speaking out against the negative impact the Haitians have brought to their community, alleging several reckless driving incidents and consumption of house pets, as reported by the Daily Mail. Haitian refugees have relocated to Springfield under a Biden-Harris administration program allowing them TPS, or temporary protective status in the US. Special visas are given to refugees from Haiti, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Cuba. In the city of about 70,000, some 20,000 Haitian refugees have come there just in the past few years.
"So you might imagine there are some challenges with, you know, integrating a new population," Legend said in an Instagram video posted on Thursday from his Beverly Hills mansion. "New language, new culture, new dietary preferences. All kinds of reasons why they might be growing pains."
"We had about 15,000 or so immigrants move to my town of 60,000," Legend continued. "Now you might say, 'Wow that's a lot of people for a town that only had 60,000 before. That's a 25 percent increase. That is correct."
He then slammed the unsubstantiated claims that Haitians were eating people's pets and encouraged his followers to stop spreading "hateful, xenophobic, racist lies" about the migrants. Residents have spoken up at city council meetings to express their frustration with the cultural differences, including reports that refugees have been taking geese from local parks and using them for food. Geese also have protected status.
"How about we love one another?" Legend suggested. "I grew up in the Christian tradition we said to love our neighbor as we love ourselves and treat strangers as though they might be Christ."
While some praised Legend for his remarks, others were upset by them and made their anger heard on social media. "John Legend says that people of Springfield, Ohio should just accept the Haitians and their weird 'dietary preferences,'" said one user, mocking the Grammy-winning artist in the comments on his social media post.
Another person added, "He's just like you. Except he doesn't live in Springfield. He lives in a multimillion-dollar mansion in Beverly Hills."
Others called Legend and his wife, Chrissy Teigen, celebrities who are out of touch with the rest of the world.
"[John Legend] tries to minimize the suffering of the Americans in Springfield by calling it simply 'growing pains.'"

I listened to DeWine do an interview about Springfield. What a little weasel.
He downplayed the issues in Springfield and said he brought in most of the Haitian immigrants to Springfield through a foundation he and his wife started. This was before the bomb threats, but I'm sure he would downplay those, too.

Well that's interesting,you just don't drop 15,000 Haitian in a small town without someone something. Money had to come into play.

You “Look how bad the Haitians made this place, now they have bomb threats”.
Link?
And I noticed you quickly edited "MAGA shitcan" to "MAGA dummy."

The bomb threat addressed multiple agencies and media outlets in an email that went out shortly before 8:30 a.m. Thursday. The email, obtained by USA TODAY, repeated the misinformation in part of a long prose disparaging Haitian people and saying a bomb in several buildings would detonate in hours.

That's all I need to know about how you fascists think about us.
Are you saying that you personally called in the bomb threat?
If you empathize so much with someone who calls in bomb threats to a city for housing refugees fleeing a breakdown of their county that you get offended when someone calls them names it’s probably time to do some self reflection on your belief system and what your political views have done to you as a person.

Good grief, where the hell did you get that idea? I said thanks for the link, not screw you for the link.
You lefties always want to assume what others are thinking, and you suck at it.
You won the question about the supposed bomb threat call, so I decided to make fun of you calling us "MAGA shitcans" and then quickly editing it.
Sorry, too late to hide your true feelings. And if you think I'm a shitcan, well, I am always willing to treat your posts with the same regard.
All that other crap you said about me proves nothing except that you are an effing moron if you think I'm sympathetic to some idiot calling in a bomb threat.

You certainly got offended at me calling the person who called in the bomb threat a name.

Thanks for proving my point. Oh, and you're the one who called all of us "shitcans."
THAT is what I'm pissed about. I dropped the bomb threat thing as soon as you sent the link. You're just too dense to understand English.
