Italy's migrant crisis is spawning new protests, with a local mayor in Sicily leading a popular revolt to prevent a few dozen new arrivals from taking up residence in an abandoned hotel.
Vincenzo Lionetto, mayor of Castel'Umberto in Messina, wrote an "urgent and important" Facebook post advising residents that the local prefect had just informed him that the 30 or so migrants would be transferred to the Canguro hotel.
He led a dozen or so residents in surrounding the hotel with their cars Saturday, though the migrants apparently were already inside.
Tensions over migration are running high in Italy, with daily arrivals of new asylum-seekers and local officials complaining they don't have space to take them in. The issue is particularly sensitive with elections expected this year or next.

What’s that word the Muslims use to describe invasion through immigration? It’s right on the tip of my tongue. Oh yeah...HIJRA.

Until the few remaining men among the euro-weenies actually start revolting (and by that I mean blood in the streets and the halls of govt) nothing will change. It’s time for them to decide - do what is necessary to preserve their culture or sit down and watch it die.
Kick them out.
Ghaddafi warned Europe and the USA that Lybia was the wall separating millions of Islamic colonists. The USA decided to use NATO and the Clinton State Department to overthrow a sovereign country and assassinate its leader. Mission accomplished.
