Roughly 100 migrants protested outside of the Portland Exposition Building Wednesday morning, briefly blocking traffic along a busy Park Ave, to raise alarm about the “awful conditions” inside the shelter, with one man telling the Maine Wire that there was not enough food and limited ability to shower. The migrants also complained about the uncertain future they face when taxpayer-funded benefits paying for their accommodations run out later this year. “We have children here, but the life is not very good,” said Reagan Mayemba, a migrant staying at the Portland Expo. Mayemba said that they will be “kicked out” in August without any housing or food.

Stay home then. Nobody wants you here anyway. Fix your country, don’t come and further wreck ours.

There’s plenty of food on the airliner that will take them home. I’ll even kick in for a bag of pretzels.

Go back to where you came from. Nobody invited you and nobody wants you. We’ve already got too many lawn services as it is.

Take a hike to NY, Chicago, CA. You will fit right in. Take a hike to Martha's Vineyard, Chappaqua, and Beverly Hills. You will be welcomed there.

It’s almost like they just came here because of free stuff or something. Who could have predicted this?

I believe that Portland is now served by a freshly elected Soros DA. When traveling through Portland, every now and then we’ll detour through the city, either along the waterfront (Commercial St.), the middle of town (Congress St.) or via Park by the Expo. Not the Portland I knew as a kid.

Send ‘em to the other Portland.

How about the fed up citizens of that town deny their protest in as extreme measures as they can.
Migrants aren’t citizens and have no “assembly rights”.
Remind them, not so subtly, that such militating against the US government can be used against them in granting asylum or citizenship.
STFU & STFD

Go back to wherever you came from then.

My daughter lives in Portland and she just told me what last weekend was like.
She is not a happy camper at the moment.
