Report: 1.5 Percent Of Haiti’s Population Has Migrated To Mexico In The Past 8 Months
Daily Caller ^ | Dec 2 2016 | Alex Pfeiffer

Posted on 12/03/2016 5:06:53 AM PST by Whenifhow

Over 150,000 Haitians have immigrated to the northern Mexican state of Baja California in the past eight months, with many hoping to reach the United States.

El Universal reported Monday that the equivalent of 1.5 percent of Haiti’s population had immigrated to the Mexican state. Haitians receive amnesty through Temporary Protected Status and thousands who have migrated to Mexico have hoped to take advantage of this benefit or receive asylum.

Jeh Johnson, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, announced recently that removals of Haitians to their home country will be resumed. They had been suspended following Hurricane Matthew’s October landfall in Haiti.

“Recently, we have seen an increase in the numbers of those apprehended on the southern border,” Johnson said. He added, “there are currently about 41,000 individuals in our immigration detention facilities, including over 4,400 Haitians. Typically, the number in immigration detention is about 31,000 to 34,000.”

Mexico has been facing an influx of African and Haitian immigrants in 2016. In the first seven months of the year, Mexico detained more migrants from Africa than they had in the past four years combined. In late October, Mexico’s Interior Minister Miguel Angel Osorio Chong called the migration wave a “grave problem.”

Chong said that following the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, immigrants from the island surged into Mexico with hopes of getting asylum. “Now they have closed the border. They receive very little,” Chong added. Most of the Haitian migrants have come from Brazil where they went following the earthquake for refuge or worked in jobs related to the World Cup and Olympics.

Haiti to Brazil to Mexico to (they hope) the U.S.

How do all these desperately poor people move around the world so easily? I barely go anywhere but church and the Walmart.

Seems like this has been reported for a while that there are many waiting to enter the US.

I often hear of whole families flying back & forth to visit family down in the islands, South America, etc. I realize they often don’t have big expenses for food & lodging because they stay with relatives, but still.

Prioritizing, I guess. If we didn’t spend any money on wine, we’d have more for airfare!

It’s a question, isn’t it? I’d like to travel the world but can’t get further than the New Jersey turnpike.

Talk about poetic justice. We should transport more of them on a couple of those norovirus petri dishes and build an impregnable wall. Let’s see Mexican tolerance and compassion at work.

Build a wall around Haiti. And make Mexico pay for it.

My weakness is beer and deli sandwiches. Probably could save quite a bit (money & waistline) if I cut just those two things out.

Maybe I’m hopelessly prejudiced, but when I go through airports I do seem to see big families from either third world countries or inner American cities and they seem to be very comfortable being part of the Jet Set with their 5 or 6 kids. I’m thinking: There’s no way I could afford to do that. How do they manage?

“How’d they get there?”

“Haiti to Brazil to Mexico to (they hope) the U.S.”
How do all these desperately poor people move around the world so easily? I barely go anywhere but church and the Walmart.”

I question how they’ve managed to finance their globe trotting too. If indeed they came by he suggested route, up from Brazil, that would cost a fair amount of money. I doubt they could hitch-hike very easily, especially through Mexico, since unlike much of our country, Mexicans, particularly many northern Mexicans, ARE racist towards blacks and wouldn’t be very quick to pick them up hitch-hiking. I wonder if there is another system in place in which the Haitians have been giving specific directions and some sort of means to pay for it to land them in northern Baja.

I’m absolutely positive the wave of children and young adults, mainly from from Central America, that have been flooding our country, was a well thought out, financed, and executed plan by the Globalists. In that operation there absolutely were deals made with Mexican Corruptocrats to allow all those immigrants to cross Mexico’s southern border, get on that train known as “The Beast”, which shuttled them all the way to OUR border. Our border agents were then not only told to allow them into our country, but told to set them apart at specific holding facilities where private government contractors then bused and flew them to their pre-determined final destinations deep within our nation.

It wouldn’t surprise me in the least to at some point find out that a similar operation is going on to get the Hatians into the United States. It’s likely that there are private contractors that are flying the Haitians directly from Haiti to northern Baja. There’s no other logical reason for them to be congregating there in those numbers. We’ve got the Muslims being brought in, the Central American “children” being brought in, and now it appears that the same shadow group is paying to have Haitians brought in.

They want you to support them.

Once they get one here, they'll bring the whole family for you to support.

Then, we'll have a wonderful country like Haiti.
