So who is moving next door to you? When this goes wrong I hope Airbnb is sued out of existence.

We’ve seen how that movie ends. Hope they took pictures of their houses so they can remember how they used to be.

Now, now. The university professors tell our children that all cultures are equal. You should not say anything if goats are having their throats slit in your backyard during Eid.

Muzzie bastards don’t want your open arms.

They want your open wallets and your open legs ...

I wish these folks success, defined as not having their stuff stolen or daughters raped. I am reminded of a cartoon labeled, “Liberals. The Early Years.” All the other cave men are running for their lives from a charging tiger except one, who has his hands clasped and a rapturous facial expression. He is saying, “My, what a beautiful animal.”

Coming next door to you a refugee camp. Zoning laws? We don’t need no stinking zoning laws.

"...Airbnb..."


The new "fashionable" thing in wealthy neighborhoods around me are "Nobody Is Illegal / Refugees Welcome" signs posted in front of their $4M homes.

If a refugee family actually appeared on their doorstep holding their luggage, these hypocrites would be dialing 9-1-1 in an instant.
Not only are they leftwingers, they are liars.

Don’t bother calling the insurance company when these “refugees” manage to set fire to the drapes while their barbecuing a goat in the living room.

After Vietnam, Hmong tribesmen, who helped US forces, were brought to
San Diego and given homes. But they didn’t know how appliances work and were building fires in the living rooms to cook food. Social services taught them how to use the stove.

Today that would be...racist?

You should not say anything if goats are having their throats slit in your backyard during Eid. ............

Some years ago, Moslem exchange soldieres on Ft. Knox were housed in regular family housing areas on post. One fine spring day, a grouop of Muzzies set about to slaughter a goat in the back yard. The goat, with a partially slit throat, objected to the festivity and broke free. Several Muzzies, some with knives, gave chase to the goat which dashed through various back yards towards freedom. Said goat dashed through a group of Army Wives who were sun bathing and bathed them with is life's blood; Ali, Mad Mo, Abdulla and friends were close on its heels complete with knives and native dress. The result was a "Designated Goat Killing area," where such entertainment could be limited to the willing participants. Just a suggestion for Air BNB.

An interesting civil disobedience protest would transport a group of illegal aliens to amnesty politician lobbies and tell them to wait there for instructions.

Leftwingers would subsequently shrug their shoulders and do NOTHING for the so-called refugees (except register them as Democrats) and hope they illegally slink into the population.

So convenient, too! You and your close neighbors don’t have to go far anymore. The raping and cover up occurs right in your own homes!

Most Airbnbs have very strict rules, etc.

Wonder how the Airbnb owners are going to feel when these refugees - who don’t know how to use toilets - trash the place?

Plus, it is nothing for Muslims to have 6-8 little headchopper children.
There is no way peaceful white Christians will maintain that same rate.
