I can tell you first hand they are being put all over. The problem is they are NOT being put near our downtown where there is actually a ton of room ( ) and the black neighborhoods are least able to afford the strain. They are absolutely being put everywhere.
Source: I actually live here. Drive from precinct to Precinct and they out there.
Yup, I bike/drive the lakefront neighborhood s and they are everywhere. They even on corners with signs nowadays. This is an ugly ass issue and winter about to roll on over them.yeah I was out in lincoln park a couple weeks ago and they got tent city near cabrini green out there even.
Why not just come out and say the city cannot support any more migrants and that Chicago is no longer a sanctuary city because they have reached and exceeded capacity?Because people are on his ass and he doesnt know what to do. Anyone with eyes can see he doesnt know what to do but he cant just come out and say it. We could start turning busses back or shipping folks out but there still needs to be funding to do that. Visiting the border is some “we hear you” shyt to placate a few folks even though it does nothing for Chicago. He wont discover something that border states dont already say is happening.
Because it was a non-sequiter. I didn't mention anything about stealing jobs. But it appears businesses definitely want to use the migrants as a cheap labor class. But there are other impacts that will matter to people. The cities impacted by this have to house them in schools still being attended by students or have kicked people, American citizens, out of shelters to make room for them. They have proposed cutting services and raising taxes. These states are spending large amounts of money, American tax payer money, to handle this issue. None of this has to do with "stealing jobs" but still enough to piss people off.You're not even responding to what I said.
@ORDER_66
They about to start shipping them to Joliet and the mayor didn’t even know
Joliet is majority white and far as hell from Chicago.
“Hey guys, we don’t want them anymore. Please stop.”Why not just come out and say the city cannot support any more migrants and that Chicago is no longer a sanctuary city because they have reached and exceeded capacity?
Sigh
The razor wore fencing caused some deaths and was injuring folks. Lets ignore that and mention that Texas was causing issues with relations with Mexico over that issue. Yes, this has to be addressed. No, killing/maiming folks and causing problems with Mexico was not the move.
And yes, it IS Texas fault. Again, these arent illegals being bussed. They are here legally seeking asylum (whether the claim is legit or not is what gets processed later) but they are being shipped wholesale to areas that dont have the funding or infrastructure for them to come every day. It isnt some big “gotcha” that people are upset about it, we dont have thousands of people get passed like a blunt that we cant pass back with no funding. Texas gets federal funding for this! Just admit you agree with “punishing liberals”.

There are finite resources and money going around. People are offended to see more of that going to non-citizens and with much more enthusiasm from politicians for it when they are neglected and ignored. Especially when this enthusiasm to spend tax payer money never was there for them as tax paying american citizens. It's insulting.
But tone deaf politicians and people like you tell them their concerns don't matter and to basically just eat shyt and shut up. Don't be surprised this causes some impact come election time. Again, doesn't look like "killers" to me in these crowds and if they are pissed enough to show up to standing room only community meetings, best believe they are mad enough to show up to the voting booths to vote people out who let this issue get worse.
500 people at the standing room only meeting on the second video. You think it smart to ignore these people, when you need their votes? Democrats are retarded on this issue and it's going to hurt them. It's not just some republican scare campaign. None of these people look like die hard Republicans to me.
I have to push back a bit, because if for instance they were actually able to work, we dwould have a different problem but they would be productive to a degree. Currently you go to any police station and people are posted the fukk up all day, every day with nothing to do. As I said somewhere else, there was going to be an asylum ban but it was blocked in July. It was supposed to block people coming over unless they applied for asylum beforehand through mexico and via apps. That would have significantly cut them down.The whole process is idiotic. The lionshare of these "migrants" do not have valid asylum claims. They're here for economic incentives. The people who were truly fleeing for their lives, like Afghans and Syrians got told We took a couple thousand of them in airplanes and told the rest good luck These Venezuelan muthafukkas though....some of their hearings are going to be years from now (in some instances, 7-8 years away). In this time frame, they get to live and work in America. That's a long ass time. By then, people will have settled down, become part of communities, had families. If their claims get denied, they'll say they've built a life here and it's unfair to be uprooted, especially if they have kids who are citizens. And most will get to stay. It's bogus af.

that's the million dollar question I've been wondering. what is even the benefit of being a sanctuary city to be honest?
Who the fukk made this stupid law and why can it not be repealed?!?
I wonder what's going to happen when they send "migrants" to this crazy ass ladies town
“Hey guys, we don’t want them anymore. Please stop.”
That won’t work. My guy, these migrants are coming from Texas. Exclusively. Abbott is going to keep doing it. Chicago, NY, Denver, and a bunch of other places are getting them because it looks good politically for him. Guaradamntee that every mayor has told him to stop sending them. Lightfoot on here way out was pleading. The cities are not just welcoming them in, and multiple busses are coming every day. Lets ask Abbott why he is doing it and stop chiding the cities actively drowning in it.
