U.S. assistant secretary of state Ann Richard is in Spartanburg, S.C. this week to discuss a controversial refugee resettlement program in the area. Richard, who oversees the U.S. State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration, will meet privately Tuesday morning with a small group of less than a dozen community leaders and activists.
The meeting will be held at 9:00 a.m. EDT at the Mary Black Foundation (349 East Main Street) in downtown Spartanburg.
Among those invited to attend? Upstate political activist Michelle Wiles (see her voter voices profile here) and former congressional candidate Christina Jeffrey, who has been following this issue for several months.
Back in April this website broke the news of the controversial resettlement program – which involves dozens of refugees from war-torn Syria being shipped to the Spartanburg area by government-subsidized “non-profits.” After profiting handsomely on these “resettlements,” the refugees are then left to fend for themselves … imposing costly new burdens on local governments.

ReplyDeleteIn other words, a meeting with those who stand to profit. There should be public notices in the papers, online and on television, to inform the public and invite them to attend.
ReplyDeleteBut like so many other "community meetings", the public could express their outrage and opposition, but it would fall on deaf ears. They have made up their minds, and it's just a matter of who gets a slice of what pie.
"Community activists"...code for otherwise unemployed parasites scrounging off the taxpayers under the guise of political correctness, racism and "Justice".
It should be the administrators who will have to find a way to foot the bill, the emergency services who have to cope with the increased crime, the schools and teachers who will be overburdened with them, the hospital administrators who will have to absorb the load of uninsured (until they get on welfare and Medicaid of course), and representatives of those who are responsible for maintaining an infrastructure not designed for the additional burden...as well as the people who LIVE there.
F those "community activists". Are they inviting them to come live in THEIR neighborhoods? And why aren't there any white "community activists"? Oh wait...they'd be immediately targeted and harasses as "racist".
Just wait until Salisbury is targeted for its share of thousands of unfriendly, non-English speaking Muslims. By the time we find out about it, the "community activists" will have it all signed sealed and delivered. And there is not a DAMN thing you or I can do about it.
S.C. deserves them after their P C involvement with the Battle Flag and misrepresenting it as racial.
ReplyDeleteHope they enjoy the terrorist living with them
