Democrats are not being adequately held accountable for the side effects of policies they not only support but defend. While the economy is high on everyone’s list, their border and migration policy is far more devastating. And I’m not talking about eating other people’s pets – which – as an aside, is, in fact, something Haitians do.
Take that for what it’s worth: a symptom of a larger problem. Dropping any meaningful number of non-Americans into US towns is crazy, and it has consequences.
News Nation reporter Rich McHugh reported from Springfield that the population boom has affected nearly every aspect of life. Car accidents are skyrocketing. According to FBI data, violent crime is up 142 percent from 2019 to 2022.
In related local news, former Manchester Mayor Joyce Craig is running for Governor in part on an “I lowered crime platform.” She lowered it from what people might ask, and the answer is a spike in crime for which she is responsible, but how much better is it now?
Only 12% of US cities are more dangerous than Manchester. Its violent crime rate per thousand is 4.11, while the rest of the state is 1.26. Property crime is more than double the state average, and crimes per square mile is 95 compared to 3 per square mile (the rest of NH). Without Joyce Craig’s Manchester, New Hampshire would be nearly crime-free.
If the best Joyce can do in the lowering crime department is to make Manchester safer than a dozen other crime-riddled Democra-run US war zones, well – no, thank you. Nor does she support policies that will improve that picture.
Joyce is an open borders sanctuary city Dem (as if many aren’t) and it is the way she would run the state. So, what does that look like? We have plenty of examples. We know from public officials in towns around Denver that gangs of illegals are seizing property and driving out locals.
“We currently have entire complexes under gang control — complexes where staff have been beaten up, they’ve been threatened, their families have been threatened [and] complexes where there are no staff left on the property,” Aurora City Council Member Danielle Jurinsky said last month. “These complexes are being run by this Tren de Aragua gang.”
Governor Joyce would make that possible in the Granite State.
We could see a spike in crime statewide—a rise in violent crime like that of Springfield (142%).
Nantucket and the Islands, even more well off than New Hampshire on average, have discovered the risk of ignoring the alien invasion.
Nantucket, like much of Massachusetts, doesn’t formally declare itself a “sanctuary,” but local officials typically don’t report migrants accused of crimes to immigration authorities.
Recently, several migrants accused of sexual violence have been released into the community. In Martha’s Vineyard, Brazilian national Warley Neto was arrested by ICE only after being indicted on multiple rape charges involving a minor.
Another case involved Jorge Luis Castro-Alvarado, a Guatemalan national, who was released on bail without ICE’s knowledge after facing rape charges. Additionally, Haitian national Cory Alvarez was arrested by ICE after being released on bail for allegedly raping a 15-year-old, the report concludes.
I’m sure it won’t be your kids who get raped or murdered, but it’ll be someone’s becasue our neighbors don’t contact ICE and let these criminals loose on low or no bail, and they repeat offend.
Then there’s the drugs, the strain addiction puts on families and resources, and overdose deaths. Joyce’s campaign slayed her primary opponent in part on her association with Perdue Pharma and the Oxycontin scandal. Still, what Democrats like Craig and Warmington – all of them – have allowed is worse.
Speaking of exploitation, why is it that New Hampshire families are struggling with substance use disorders? Democrats, of course. Democrats endorsed and supported by Warmington, Craig, and millions of registered D’s across the increasingly fruitless plain. A struggle that began with DACA and the Obama open-borders amnesty love affair that led to millions of illegals, including drug gangs, and lots of drugs pouring into the country.
New Hampshire was hit hard, but any objection to the influx was labeled xenophobic, racist. At the same time, Democrats used the “opioid crisis” they created as an excuse to spend other people’s money to grow the government. A problem Donald Trump had begun to fix when Biden and Harris not only erased the border but helped ferry them into the country. A deliberate policy choice that leads to opioid abuse, addiction, suffering, and death.
Those deaths are a direct result of open immigration and sanctuary policies that Democrats like Joyce Craig would try to impose statewide.
Craig’s campaign can’t run on that, but can you imagine? “We support policies that will increase crime, including violent sex abuse crimes against children.”
But that’s what we’ll get and it’s not just Joyce Craig. Nearly every Democrat running for elected office either supports these “migrant” policies or lacks the stones to oppose them openly. That’s executive councilors, State Senators, House Reps, and your members of Congress (naturally).
And you can sit on your hands and play duck and cover and hope that by being quiet, they won’t notice your passive opposition, but the criminals don’t care. The drugs don’t care. And they are out there and doing nothing is nothing more than an invitation to Elected Democrats that you do not object to their priorities
But I think you do.
