The local paper, the Springfield News-Sun, reported on a hostile city commission meeting last fall following the death of Aiden Clark, an 11-year-old boy.
Aiden was riding a school bus on the first day of school, 2023, and was killed and 12 other children were injured when a Haitian immigrant drove into oncoming traffic causing the school bus to overturn.
Here is a report on a part of the meeting:
At the meeting, the city manager of Springfield said, “We are not officially declared a sanctuary city … We have never passed any legislation to that effect.’
He further noted immigrants are allowed into the country under a federal program extending “humanitarian parole” to foreign nationals who are forced to flee their country.
“So, when other countries are in a crisis, the federal government … allows immigrants into our country. It is a federally legislated program,” he said.
And since 2014, 20,000 Haitian immigrants have taken their “humanitarian parole” to Springfield, 10,000 of those in the last four years.
And one of those immigrants is now in prison and a child buried because that immigrant was apparently granted “humanitarian parole.” Oh, and, by the way, said immigrant chose to drive recklessly and without a license.
Wicked and thoughtless behavior gives humanitarian parole a bad name.

On the Aiden Clark case...
The perp was speeding, did not brake, was unlicensed, doesn’t speak English...
Why is nobody curious about how the heck the perp got a vehicle?
On that question...

In the small cities / big towns - Drive around in the daytime you see dozens of working age people just hanging out on the sidewalks - on their cellphones, earbuds, etc. Women with the latest clothes, hair, nails. Everybody looks well fed - new model cars parked all over.
They’re saddled up and driving on the roads too. With D/Ls. Royally screwing up near you and your car because of their hazy knowledge of, or painfully insufficient regard for, the so-called Rules of the Road. Consequences? Predictable.
It is part of the destabilization process. It’s all by design.
Its like the homeless problem. The dems allow it as they can always clean it up later. Once they own all the prime property and they are ready to build, they will simply pass a few laws and bring in the police to remove the homeless from the downtown and the beach areas.
Same with the immigrants. They are needed to sway the elections. Once political power is attained, the dems will simply ‘push’ the immigrants somewhere else. Into the country, the desert, the sea.. they don’t care. They can go back to where they came from if it suits them.
A child could see this coming. What is the excuse of those instigating this “program”?
No, it is the national and local government that has the bad, very bad, name.

What’s worse Haitian or Venezuelan gangs?
I would say Haitian are worst.
Democrats: Take it and like it, serfs
NGO?
The Catholic Church?
Not so much the Catholic Church, but, more likely, Catholic Charities
... and just as with the bums and their “hovel communities”, sooner or later (presuming the politicians and unelected bureaucrats want to maintain some form of society and acceptable standard of living) this must be dealt with ... often forcibly so, as the bums and squatters won’t leave on their own.
You get it.
You think Bergoglio doesn’t support it?
