The owners of The Berkshire Eagle in Pittsfield, MA removed Disqus commenting from their paper the day after 1,000 residents packed a meeting demanding that Pittsfield not accept “Syrian refugees.”
No questions were allowed at the meeting and only people in agreement with the plans were allowed to speak. As of this time, the plans are still in place to give them homes and cash upon their arrival.
It was rare to see articles with more than 10 comments but the “Syrian refugee” story had hundreds of comments demanding that the program be halted.
The USA. Just like Europe.
At least WE have Trump.
