Footprints in the snow lead from the sidewalk to a path through the weeds, opening to a field that is almost invisible from the road.

North of Interstate 70, in a part of Denver filled mostly with warehouses and gas stations, the tents are flapping relentlessly in the wind. About 10 migrants from South America hunkered down here during four days of subzero temperatures, and the volunteers who brought them heaters and propane, hot meals and fresh water, are prepared to help hundreds more as Denver pushes migrants out of their city-provided hotel rooms in the coming weeks.

The dozen or so brightly colored tents were mostly concealed from view by the field’s dirt mounds, despite that they were just across the South Platte River from the National Western Stock Show, one of Denver’s biggest events of the year. As the city stayed home during last week’s deep freeze, the Venezuelans and other South Americans in the encampment zipped into sleeping bags and gathered in a “warming tent” to play dominoes and eat a pot of homemade noodle soup.

When the democrats are finish with these Illegals they’ll throw them out like trash

Everywhere they go, the illegals cause trash. They cause filth, they are filthy, and don't clean up after themselves.

Contrast that with legal immigrants who go through the proper channels to come here. They work and try to contribute.

We need to toss out the democrats along with the illegals, as trash.
