A Methodist bishop whose church receives millions of dollars in federal grants each year to house unaccompanied alien children asserted in a House hearing on Tuesday that the U.S. has raped immigrants home countries.
What is your church doing to discourage people from coming to the United States illegally and staying in the United States illegally? Virginia Rep. Bob Goodlatte asked Bishop Minerva Carcano during a hearing of the House Judiciary Committees Subcommittee on Immigration and Border Security.
Carcano heads the California-Pacific Conference of the United Methodist Church, which supports comprehensive immigration reform. The churchs Board of Child Care has received at least $7.6 million in federal grants in the last three years to provide shelter services for unaccompanied alien children who are apprehended crossing into the U.S. illegally.
Thats when the bishop the first Hispanic woman elected to her position at UMC launched into an attack on U.S. foreign policy, blaming it for a situation that has forced Central Americans to flee their homes.
Immigrants want to stay home, she said. Theyre not able to stay home because weve undermined their economies. We have raped their lands.
I would restate that most immigrants want to stay home. But they cant feed their families, she continued, adding that the U.S.s involvement in Central America has harmed their economies in disastrous ways.
Weve been involved in their politics in ways that have undermined their countries and left their societies in shambles.

ESAD comes to mind with ignorance like this.
Did he bring up what Spain did to the south of the border folks?
.
LOL! That certainly deflates their ‘narrative’.
> “Pro-Immigration Bishop Tells Congress That US Has Raped Central America”
Translation: Reparations are due in cold hard cash for like forever.
Corrupt liberal political “preachers” bringing socialism to America.
Lets talk Venezuela and what the government has done to the people.
They have undermined their own.
Voting for dictators, communists and socialists is voting not to have an economy.
Follow the money, and there is no such animal as a female bishop. BTW, has anyone checked Carcano’s immigration status?
More hate America garbage from those that want to come here and get benefits.
Why don’t the Castros invite The Bern to come fix la revelucion?
Did that moron Ball had anything to say about Lenin’s statement that if by the time the Bolsheviks built the communism in Russia, there were only 10 million Russian people left, it would have been still worth the lost lives?
Hey I feel raped every time I have to work an extra day a week to pay for all their handouts. And yet they still keep coming. They are sooo abused they just keep coming over our borders.....
Bkmrk.
Using Fast & Furious’ guns to scare people north for a massive invasion into the U.S. no longer necessary. The churches are more than willing to do the dirty work of moving illegals here. A far better job than F&F could ever have done.
Left tge damn Methodist years ago. This kind of Bull crap was the reason.
