Martha’s Vineyard Residents Begged for Mass Immigration Until Migrant Flights Arrived: ‘They Have to Move’
Breitbart ^ | 18 Sep 2022 | JOHN BINDER

Posted on 09/18/2022 5:13:37 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Business owners on Martha’s Vineyard have spent years begging for more mass immigration to the United States in the hopes of filling summer jobs with foreign workers.

When 50 illegal aliens were flown onto the elite coastal island, home to the nation’s wealthiest and most well-connected, officials declared a “humanitarian crisis” and Gov. Charlie Baker (R) swiftly deported the new arrivals to a military base on Cape Cod.

The reaction to just 0.001 percent of the nation’s border crisis arriving on the doorsteps of Martha’s Vineyard residents comes after business owners spent years pleading with the federal government to import more foreign workers so they could fill jobs.

“At some point in time, they have to move from here to somewhere else. We don’t have the services to take care of 50 immigrants,” an official said when the illegal aliens arrived. “We certainly don’t have housing. We’re in a housing crisis as we are on this island, so we can’t house everyone here that lives here and works here. We don’t have housing for 50 more people.”

It would have been even more hilarious if the “migrants” had been wearing those Biden t-shirts they were wearing when they crossed the border.

The new arrivals need special low cost housing units.

So, they need to be welcomed and given the keys to their new low cost housing.

Also, donate to each new male arrival, a new and quiet Honda leaf blower to carry around the village with them.

Martha’s Vineyard Resident Calls Police To Report A Hispanic In The Neighborhood Not Operating A Leaf Blower, Sep 15, 2022 · BabylonBee.com

MARTHA’S VINEYARD, MA — Residents of upscale Martha’s Vineyard are in a panic after several buses dropped off illegal immigrants from Florida this week. One terrified resident reportedly called the authorities after seeing Hispanic males outside her home, not even operating a leaf blower or any other kind of gardening equipment.

“Hello, is this 911? Yes, there are brown-looking Latinx people outside my 20,000-square-foot seaside home, and they aren’t even carrying leaf blowers,” said a terrified Mavis McWhite to the dispatcher. “They aren’t even holding so much as a rake. They’re up to no good. I’m scared! Please send help!”

Early reports from one of the wealthiest zip codes on earth indicate that approximately 50 people from countries south of the equator are striking fear in the hearts of local oligarchs, movie stars, and millionaire politicians who reside there. “It was so inconsiderate for DeSantis to ship these dark-skinned people up to our neighborhood without the tools they need to maintain our multimillion-dollar properties,” said Town Councilmember Pam Karen-Cindy. “What else are they going to do all day? Just despicable.”

At publishing time, the Hispanic immigrants who currently work as landscapers and house servants in Martha’s Vineyard for minimum wage had organized a demonstration to protest the arrival of new Hispanic immigrants who will work for even cheaper.

Send two million illegals a year into the neighborhoods of the unwashed, and the liberal elites, safe in their gated communities, scold us with their insufferable virtue-signaling lawn signs.

Send just fifty of them to one of their posh neighborhoods, and suddenly it’s a “humanitarian crisis” and the National Guard is called in to shoo them away like unwanted flies at a picnic.

Governor DeSantis is a genius.

So what? What will change as a result?

They wanted migrants for summer work, so they didn’t expect them to stay around off-season. Summer is over, so the timing of the migrants’ arrival was not to MV’s liking. How gauche!

Please governor Abbott and DeSantis send those criminals released from the prison in Venezuela to Martha’s Vineyard! Please please please! If any community deserves the hideous hardened criminals from another country it would be Delaware , Martha’s Vineyard and the rest of the billionaires enclaves. It’s time that they start getting the brunt of invaders along with worrying for their privileged children safety the way we peasants feel for our children’s safety! It works both ways *itches!! Oh And while you’re at it governors bus invaders to the front doors of the fake mediapuke office buildings! That’ll really get them howling, moaning and *itching!

Is sidewalk pooping legal in MV? Just asking for an amigo...

Won't be long before the MV officials demand that the new visitors be shipped to Gitmo. That's an island destination as well.

8000 illegals entering per day and they cannot take 50?

They deserve thousands more.

As if those mansions aren’t big enough. I’m sure they even have servants quarters.

I noticed a lot of "all are welcome here" signs have been removed near me.

They're not afraid of having illegal aliens dumped on their doorstep but are afraid of being called out for their blatant hypocrisy.

Not sure these uppity hypocrites will be able to walk this one back.

It’s gonna stick this time.

And we need to rub it heartily in their faces, intensely.

The same goes for our little far out suburban country town. All the libs who moved out here to get away from all the “bad schools” stake up their “Hate has no home here” signs — I’d laugh my arse off if a bus would drop off about 200 of them right in the town square.

For people who are allegedly so elite and enlightened, they showed how little brains they really have. No one in that nest of our 'bettors' had a shred of political prowess in how to competently deflect much less have awareness of the political implications of what could or could not occur. There are multiple ways they could have defused the situation even to their advantage down to an insignificant incident. Instead they ran with the same narrative the huge metro areas have been using and expected that the media would give them cover - that's not working out well. Saw the network news broadcasts earlier and besides Queen Elizabeth they were running segments about people pouring over the border and struggles of nearby towns to deal with it. The efforts of the Martha's Vineyard crowd to keep moving the goalposts has been entertaining and instructive as well. That hive of elites got exposed and called out on their hypocrisy and by their reactions what sort of people they really are and to beware of.
 
 
 
 
 
What's that you say? Little brown people? Here?
At The Vineyard? Oh dear! Something must be done!
This cannot stand! Something must be done!
HOW DARE THEY! This is an outrage!

I’m sure there’s a native American tribe that can claim Martha’s Vineyard. Let’s give it back to them.

Can we give Memphis back to the Chickasaws? It would make the rest of Tennessee happy.
