As Jacob Payen, a co-founder of the Haitian Community Alliance who runs a business that includes helping Haitians in Springfield to file tax returns, said: “People are fully aware of the election result, and that is why they are leaving; they are afraid of a mass deportation.
“Several of my customers have left. One guy with his family went to New Jersey; others have gone to Boston. I know three families that have gone to Canada.”
Some are thought to have moved to nearby cities such as Dayton, where they believe they would be less visible to law enforcement. Others who had temporary asylum in Brazil are pondering going back to the South American country, community leaders say.
Springfield’s Haitian community has been in the spotlight since Trump falsely accused immigrants here of eating pets during a presidential debate in September. Since then, the city has seen false bomb threats and marches by neo-Nazi groups after having experienced a revival in recent years in large part because of Haitians who took jobs in local produce packaging and machining factories that many previously there found undesirable.

What kind of vehicle is a drove?
Lemme guess. Zero reported income but they've all got ten children for that Child Tax Credit.
“Several of my customers have left. One guy with his family went to New Jersey; others have gone to Boston. I know three families that have gone to Canada.”
This is how it’s done!
They will self deport ... out of the country, too!
So much winning!
what neo-nazi groups?
not even a name for one?
strange that no video
if true leftist media would have run with it 24/7
New Jersey, Boston, and Canada? All good places for them to share their culture with one another. Sounds like they’ll all do just fine.
running where they will be safe and protected, they think
I wonder if Trump’s threat to send them all to Rwanda helped
Be still my heart! LOL Rollin rollin rollin, keep those dog eaters rollin Rawhide!!!!!
Fo’ sho’
Jacob Payen should be thoroughly investigated. With countrymen like him, who needs enemies?
I hope all the local dogs and cats chased their Haiti asses out of town. The Party is over!
kinda like roaches... aka palmetto bugs in florida...
Yes, and the cats there all have a healthy layer of winter fat this time of year. They’ll be suckin’ their teeth after the community BBQ.
Unless they are fleeing back to Haiti what does it matter other than to the Springfield legal residents? Problem just moves elsewhere.
Aw, shucks!
You know the cats and dogs are rejoicing.
All good as long as they leave the USA.
“One guy with his family went to New Jersey; others have gone to Boston.”
Do they know those places are in the USA?
Good.
