The 50 migrants who landed on Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts last week were shipped off the island so fast one local resident was left lamenting she didn't have time to help.
"I wish that I had been more involved, that I had heard [about] it when it [the migrants' arrival on the island] originally happened," Joyce Dresser told Fox News Digital on Saturday as she sold books during a street festival in Oak Bluffs.
That island town is famous for its colorful "gingerbread house" Victorian homes.

MARTHA'S VINEYARD RESIDENTS LAMENT LACK OF RESOURCES, EVEN AS ISLAND IS FLUSH WITH CASH AND BEDS
Dresser said she learned of the newcomers' arrival only hours after they landed.
By then, the illegal immigrants — most of them Venezuelan nationals — were already in the care of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Edgartown.
"I think in the long run these people are going to luck out," she said. "They're getting more services than they would have gotten down south."
The migrants spent just 44 hours on Martha's Vineyard before they were sent by ferry and bus to Joint Base Cape Cod on the Massachusetts mainland.

‘Dopey broad’ bump...
Head`em Up!
Move`em Out!
Vineyard!
Maybe she’ll ‘luck out’ and more illegal aliens will be sent to MV so she can help next time ...
A cruise ship needs to offload at MV…I really hope this is not a one time thing. The only thing that would get the border closed faster is if illegal aliens pledged to vote for the bad orange man
All kinds of folks come out of the woodwork offering help once they know it is no longer needed.
She probably figures they will be given cake down south too.
Of course they will , we’re a sanctuary state. So why is there outrage. We have it all. Abortions for days, sky high taxes, illegal immigrants and plenty of world class leftist educational institutions to shape the minds of our young folks.

I believe I saw the services they got. Beds on the floor and a few boxes of Sugar Smacks and Fruit Loops. Oh, and a free trip to an Army base a day later. Well bye!
Helluva job there Vineyardians.
The only thing the people of Matha’s Vineyhad forgot was bringing in James Taylor to sing “You’ve Got a Friend” as the bus rolled away.
Is this a great country, or what?
Yea,Ok, Libs don’t help ,they just make a further mess of things! Priceless!!!
