ABC News ^ | Sep 18, 2024 | Doc Louallen

Haitian migrants residing in Springfield, Ohio, shared with ABC News their harrowing experiences of living in constant fear, expressing deep concerns about their safety that prevent them from venturing outside their homes.

In a town of more than 58,000 residents, threats of bombings and shootings led to the closure of city buildings and schools for several days. Wittenberg University canceled all activities on Sunday and classes on Monday as a precautionary measure.

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.

They’ve already left home, and travelled 2000 miles to Ohio

Why don't they just get a job in the Dominican Republic if they want freedom and work?

Oh, yes. They have been at it since the 1930’s, and they are close to achieving their goals.

“3 April 2022”

“Commuting is too dangerous. The authorities have lost control of main transportation routes to the south and east of the city, through areas such as Martissant and Croix des Bouquets, and gangsters are pillaging the population, raping women and shooting at passengers on buses or in cars.”

“22 April 2024”

“Banditry, prostitution and kidnapping are the big businesses here.”

“In this country, the preferred food for dogs and pigs is the fresh bodies they find on the streets of the city.”

"...Total plant story designed to bolster a left-wing story about racism as the driving force behind the Springfield story..."

It has only been less than two weeks, and the media is jumping from Step One (it isn't even happening) to Step 4 (Racists)

No. They have Humanitarian Parolee status. Eligible for all social services including SSI (And you wonder why the ‘trust fund’ is dwindling’)
If they stay inside, I can go grocery shopping withoug being harrassed. Kroger on Bechtle at noon.

This is from 2012:

“Les principales viandes de consommation en Haïti sont : le poulet, le poisson, la chèvre, le bœuf et les porcs. Toutefois le chat reste la viande préférée des amateurs de l’alcool, et cela sans discussion.”

https://nelsond.mondoblog.org/haiti-quelle-viande-doit-on-consommer-le-chameau-ou-le-cheval/

I think that implies only drunk Haitian bums would eat cat.

Yep, even if the government is awash with tax money, they are fools and we all will end up separated from any and all money.
