Here was what Erie County Executive Mark C. Poloncarz had to say in May about the upstate New York area getting a flood of illegal alien migrants.
“I have been advised by representatives of New York State that we will soon be joined by an as-yet unknown number of asylum-seekers, people who have been forced out of their own countries by authoritarian rulers or for other serious life-threatening reasons. These individuals are all legally in the country seeking asylum, have been vetted by federal authorities prior to arriving here and will be coming from New York City.”
“It should be noted, over the past decade and more, approximately 12,000 refugees have moved into and through our area as part of the good work that the Refugee Partnership does, all without fanfare and without the ridiculous fears stoked by xenophobic and ill-informed community members. Some stay here and some move on but all of these people come here seeking to build their own American dream, provide for themselves and their families, and become productive members of our society.
“In fact, due to the exemplary work of the Refugee Partnership, currently there are hundreds of refugees and asylum-seekers in Erie County from countries as diverse as Afghanistan, Congo, Ecuador, Somalia, Ukraine, Venezuela and more. These people are not a threat to our community and are only looking for the opportunity to pursue their dream of living in a free, democratic society.”
Now, Mark has changed his tune.
“As we have done for years, Erie County opened its arms to try and welcome these new Americans. Unfortunately there is no way to make the program as presently run sustainable. Two serious, violent crimes in two weeks are two too many. Our refugee agencies did their best to provide support and assistance, but our community’s trust and good faith have been betrayed. We were assured of safety, security, and proper screening. Clearly that hasn’t been done.”
What recent incidents is the Democratic official referring to?
A top upstate Dem official and previous vocal supporter of housing migrants there now says he will refuse additional resettlements — after a second local alleged sex assault involving an asylum-seeker.
The frustrated pol, Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz, added that the National Guard will start providing security at the three hotels-turned-migrant shelters in Cheektowaga in Erie within a day or two, after he learned the facilities are not safe, according to a weekend report.
Last week, a migrant from Venezuela who was bussed from New York City to a Cheektowaga hotel was charged with raping a woman in front of a 3-year-old child at the site.
Then an asylum-seeker from the Democratic Republic of the Congo was arrested Friday and is being charged with sex abuse and unlawful imprisonment after allegedly sexually assaulting an employee inside the Best Western hotel in Cheektowaga near Buffalo Airport.
It’s a shame that Mark is surrendering to “ridiculous fears stoked by xenophobic and ill-informed community members.”
Doesn’t he know that the man who raped a woman in front of a 3-year-old child had “been vetted by federal authorities” and is one of the “new Americans” looking for democracy… and to vote for Democrats?
But all is not lost.
Mark informs us that, “Erie County will continue to welcome refugees and those seeking shelter under the traditional programs, just as we have for years. These recent incidents shouldn’t color attitudes toward our New American neighbors”.
Bring on the federally vetted new American rapists and don’t let their recent rapes color your attitudes toward the illegal alien rapists.

“Migrants?” Seriously? Are they birds who fly South for the Winter or people who come to do seasonal work and then go home?
They’r invading wet backs. They never leave and they take every freebie they can from taxpayers.
It doesn’t matter that I like most of the ones I meet and know. They don’t belong here. They need to fix their own shitty countries, not ruin ours.
Christopher Robert Riddle says
They are not”Migrants”;They are”INVADERS”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ugly Sid says
What proportion of illegal immigrants are genuinely seeking actual asylum?
Does it approach 1%?
And the administration has online websites to accept “applications”? To encourage it?
I remember sixty years ago when the oatmeal sponsor of Sergeant Preston of the RCMP was giving out deeds to 1 square inch of Yukon land. The government stopped it as unsustainable and absurd.
Now we are being given away to foreigners. By Joe Bribery. In spite of being unsustainable and absurd.

omg, allowing all the criminals in the world to come in to our country.
Primitive peoples have been waging war on each other as far back as one can see. It makes sense, they had to develop and use weapons to hunt and capture their animal prey, then they used their weapons on other people also.

Onzeur Trante says
Has anyone polled the residents of Erie County to learn how they feel about the ‘exemplary” work of the Refugee Partnership and the over the top diversity they now have in their communities?
The Captain says
Typical. They’re all just good freedom-seeking asylum seekers as long as they’re destroying someone else’s city and terrorizing citizens in those evil red states, which deserve to be terrorized. It’s hard to determine whether the Dims are ignorant, stupid or both.

Satanic, actually.
Beez says
Most satanists don’t normally put on theatrical costumes and engage in scary rituals. If the devil himself appeared in this dimension of time and space, he’d be dressed in a tailor-made suit with perfectly creased trouser legs, hair perfectly coiffed, a Rolex on his arm, and holding a briefcase. He’d have candy for the children, and he’d convince you that good is bad, up is down, and right is wrong.
Cat says
neither. Evil intent and not stupid
SPURWING PLOVER says
Maybe they should ask the people with groups of so called refugees taking up the park and the rapes that are happening but the Democrats want all those votes so they don’t care
Angel Jacob says
Has anybody else noticed that this whole “diversity” push everywhere is going hand in hand with millions of illegals pouring in. With many muslims among them.
It’s a planned invasion.
Only God knows how much the officials have been bribed to let this happen.

Destroying the cultural fabric of America was easy. Tell a little fib here, a little denial there, and voila! Fundamental (demographic) Transformation accomplished! His “first mentor” and father, FRANK MARSHALL DAVIS, would have been so proud.

The Economy’s ‘Red Death’ Will Come for DC, Too
By J.B. Shurk
While families struggle to afford food, fuel, and essentials for young children, the White House continues to assure Americans that the economy has never been better. While the Department of Homeland Security insists that America’s borders are secure and that illegal immigration is under control, small towns across the country struggle to deal with spiking fentanyl deaths, transnational crime networks, and forced multiculturalism that often drives a wedge within communities. International trade deals that were negotiated and signed by residents of D.C. have hollowed out once thriving industrial towns and left multiple generations of blue-collar workers poor and adrift.

Since many Democrats think the Police should be defunded and the money spend on useless Rehabilitation and Meditation classes in Prisons they are the big crime leaders themselves
