James Fleurijean, a Haitian Community Help & Support Center member, stated that the continual spread of false and divisive statements from prominent politicians was fostering an environment of fear.

Why do the Springfield voodoo monkeys feel unsafe?

Have the local cats and dogs formed a militia?

So, that means they have seen those poorly made FBI billboards asking the Haitians to give them a call. By “immigrants” I assume they mean illegal aliens who broke the law when they came into America.

Haitians are eligible for Temporary Protected Status. The vast majority are probably legally here.

How would we know? It's not like any of this has transparency.

They stay indoors, except for the occasional foraging for pets.

So the sh!t heads leave a Sh!t hole country and move to America.
Where are they turn the city into a new Sh!t hole.
Happens everywhere.
My son moved into a house that has been in the family for years. Then subsided housing goes in several blocks away. Then about 8 years later total Sh!t zone now.
This has happened to dozens of neighborhoods here.
Now almost Turing into No Go Zones.
My son hears gunfire almost every night.

ABC News' Terry Moran speaks with Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, about how they are coping with baseless claims, one of which alleges they are to blame for missing pets.

It's like a jungle there.
