Whoa Whoa Whoa....Huh?

  • A homeless shelter on the West Side was bracing for a greater influx of evacuees from Haiti scheduled to arrive later today.

    The Chicago Christian Industrial League shelter at 2750 W. Roosevelt Road is already working to get about 60 refugees off to their final destinations after they arrived from Haiti late Wednesday night.

    Brian Rowland, manager for A Safe Haven Foundation Inc., which runs the shelter, said about 20 of the Haitians are already en route to New York, where they have relatives waiting. Another 40 are scheduled to leave for South Florida tomorrow, Rowland said.

OK, we're all for saving the poor and downtrodden. It's what America does. We are the most charitable, giving people in the history of the world, bar none. But why in the world would we fly sixty people 1,850 miles to Chicago, then ship 40 of them to South Florida and 20 more to New York? Don't tell us there aren't any direct flights to Florida or New York.

It's only 700 miles between Haiti and Miami. Why add a 2,000 mile detour? Who's making a buck on this one? That building on Roosevelt Road had Blago's wife making some obscene amount of money for BS - are they paying off her contract? Or someone's contract? Somebody is making some fast coin off this scam.

How many of these people will get "lost" and stay in Chicago? Kind of like the people who were relocated after Katrina.

Combination of chain immigration and United Air Lines with a self-appointed "social engineering" mandate to "change the face" of America. Not like UAL's gonna adopt 'em, diaper 'em, wipe their sniffles.

Just what we need in a depression; planeloads of the indigent and helpless arriving hourly. Of course, they've been screened carefully enough to ensure that none of them are part of the 4,000 inmates who came pouring out of the breached National Prison of Haiti in Port-Au-Prince, killing four guards and equipping themselves with guns, guard uniforms and ID, and official vehicles.

Let the kids from the 82nd Airborne sort this out. Guess wrong, you die. Fair enough...

We (retired) citizens of the great goober state of Flawida are grateful for Chicago's drawing off some of the Haitians.

Suggesting Miami? Thanks a lot! That's just 2 stolen cars (can't be putting no gas in a hot ride) away from beautiful, scenic Tampa. Consider it another stimulus. To get out of there.

You really NEED more democratic voters who don't speak english.

It was on the radio. United donated their planes. They are flying them to Chicago because that's where the United Planes and Teams left from. They are dropping them off, then returning to pick up more. Just what we need. Look at Houston after Katrina. This will be no different.

Watch the running dog rev'runs and alderfools on this fuckery as well.

They are the next "catered to constituency" in Chicago.

42 extra-short says muthafuck the hard working tax payers,(ESPECIALLY Coppers and other City employees) they don't vote for him anyway so why should he give a shit?

Wonder how the tax base would look without the middle class propping it up?

Oh yeah! It'll be propped up by the same dogs who yap about paying sales tax on a bottle of bumpy-face at the "co'nuh sto'" entitles them to say "I pays y'all salary."

Fuck if the best view of this heaving shit-hole of a city won't be the one in our rear view mirror!

What you want to bet that a heaping helping of the approximately 40k of the criminals and the insane who escaped from Port Au Prince prison end up dropping anchor here?

The new democ-rats are arriving and this shit won't be fun or funny in the least when the starter's pistol is fired.

barry, shorty, the alderfools and the barking-rat rev'runs yodel and soil themselves with glee at the thought of another "catered to constituency" by which to further loot the taxpayer treasury at the federal and local level...

Can't wait to see what kind of grants and give-aways these fools will conjure up!

KISS A MONKEY'S RED ASS! Ain't no muthafuckahs less fortunate than the hard pressed middle class TAXPAYER nowadays, you funky bastards!

Quite a few of them are staying at the O'Hare Hilton as we speak. Maybe 80-100. They are watching cable tv and eating restaurant food. I didn't give a cent to this and I didn't text Haiti on my cell phone. You did, dumb ass. This is where your money goes.

The streets of Chicago are paved with gold, they will be fine if they stay here.

I work in a Haitian area. the Belize Bloods and Haitians don't get along with our local african american gang members, They form up their own posse and friction results, so at least there will be some new playahs in town.

These Haitians believe in Voo Doo too, I've seen them do some really strange funny shit. Yoiu'll like that. It will be something new for y'all.

SCC - this is only the second time zombies have been addressed on this blog. Get with it. They are everywhere already!

Several times I have been surrounded by zombies, mostly at the bottom of expressway ramps, but I was besieged near 1400 S. Canal too. I'm pretty sure they wanted to eat my brain.

Here's what the U.S. State Dept had to say (Nov '09) about crime in Haiti:

CRIME: There are no "safe” areas in Haiti. There is a persistent danger of violent crime, which can be subject to periodic surges sometimes not obviously explained by other events or conditions. Haiti is among the four most important countries for drug transit to the United States. Law and order in Haiti has steadily deteriorated as a result. Kidnapping, death threats, murders, drug-related shootouts, armed robberies, home break-ins and car-jacking are common in Haiti. Generally, these crimes are committed by Haitians against other Haitians, although several foreigners and U.S. citizens have been victimized. The incidence of kidnapping in Haiti has diminished from its peak in 2006 when 60 U.S, citizens were reported kidnapped. In 2008, there were 27 reported kidnappings of U.S. citizens, and as of September 2009, one U.S. citizen had been reported kidnapped. Many U.S. citizens who were kidnapped reported being beaten and/or raped by their hostage takers. Kidnapping remains the most critical security concern. Kidnappers have frequently targeted children.

Lovely.

Let's help rebuild Haiti to it's former glorious state as one of the most dangerous crime ridden places in the western hemishpere.

George Clooney and the rest seem to believe that Haiti was a wonderful island paradise, full of sweet and kind island people who smile at tourists and shine shoes.

Never mind the murders, kidnappings, drug trafficing, kidnappings and rapes. Hope For Haiti Now.

And when all the tens and hundreds of millions of $$ that are being raised have been spent and still no one is working or literate and crime is worse than ever because the jails have now all been emptied, then what?

I'll tell you then what, the New Guantanamo:

Penal Colony Port 'o Prince.

...is the correct answer. I spoke to a dozen folks on the plane. They were U.S. citizens or green card holders, many of whom had lost their homes, businesses and families in Haiti. None of them wanted to be in Chicago.

Sorry...my kindness and compassion is very strained. We get screwed here in Chicago, taxed to death, corruption everywhere, can't even find decent candidates to vote for. Give Haiti back to the French, let them take care of them...I'm getting tired of being the World's keeper. We need to take care of things on the home front, we have some very serious issues that are going to have to be addressed before we can keep helping others out. These fine actors can give money out of their own pockets, I'm all tapped out and can barely make ends meet anymore. I'm sure if we had a massive earthquake here, we wouldn't be getting a handout from any other country...and if we did, the politicians would just steal it anyways!!!! Term LIMITS People...because these political positions are just being handed down from generation to generation. Stop the bullshit already!
