A heartbreaking video captured in a Chicago commuter train shows the moment a homeless immigrant family sleeps on the floor and seats. Alexis Aguilar captured the footage at the CTA Blue Line Addison in the North Side of Chicago back in September. In the clip, a young girl can be seen lying face down while sleeping on the floor, her feet covered in sut. Aguliar told the Chicago Tribune: 'When I saw a barefoot girl lie down on the floor of the passway (of the train), barefoot and cold, trying to sleep, my heart broke and I knew something was wrong.'

But but...I am told immigrants are productive hard workers who do not need public assistance.

“The Sleepers” should go back to Meh-he-co.
It’s nice and warm there.

Hobos and bums have been sleeping on CTA buses and trains for years. The drivers or conductors are supposed to wake up the hobo/bums at the end of the line and roust them out. If they don’t leave peacefukky, call the PD.

Send them to Milwaukee and they can sleep with the rest of the bums on the Mayor’s new trolley as it endlessly circles the same 4 blocks; just be sure they refer to it by the Mayor’s pet name “the Hop”.

Maybe they should go back to their own country.

Just a guess, but maybe the blame lies with mommy and daddy?

What a complete load of total Bull Shit - When I shop at Jewel [Chicago Supermarket] every non-English speaking family has a WIC Card and they buy what they want - I never see them turned down for any food item. If you shop at a Jewel in the city, over half of the shoppers are using the card. The train family is putting on a good act.

Are these legal immigrants or illegal immigrants?

Huge difference in ability for parents to find jobs and get a place to live. Misleading headline by not including that very important detail. May as well say “Shocking video shows family-of-six sleeping on a Chicago commuter train”.

It’s probably a lot safer than Chicago public housing.

We can hope they’ll be headed back to a warmer, more hospital climate soon.

“Huge difference in ability for parents to find jobs and get a place to live. Misleading headline by not including that very important detail.”

To the left, and globalist Republicans (Bush, Romney, Ryan) there are no “illegal” immigrants, just immigrants and refugees. The propaganda organs, pundits, and academics are making a point of not referring to any immigrant as “illegal”. In fact their formerly preferred adjective “undocumented” seems to have been discarded as well for simply “immigrant”.
