People in Chicago and Other Cities Fed Up with Massive Influx of Illegal Immigrants
“They disrespect us, they rob us, they harass us.”
The strategy by leaders in border states to send illegal immigrants to blue cities is working perfectly. In the Woodlawn neighborhood of Chicago, residents are already reaching their limit.
FOX News reports:
Chicago residents sound off on illegal immigrants in neighborhood: ‘They disrespect us, rob us, harass us’
Residents of a Chicago-area neighborhood frustrated by the disruptive behaviors of illegal migrants at a local shelter sounded off to city leaders this week.
Neighbors said they “no longer [had] any tolerance” for migrants who were loitering, engaging in late-night partying, prostitution, littering and even fighting with community members, CBS2 Chicago reported.
Distraught residents told city officials in attendance that the migrants’ behavior made them feel unsafe. “I would ask you all to go out there — go out there at night, in the middle of the night — and see what goes on,” one emotional resident said. Another woman vented, “They disrespect us, they rob us, they harass us.”
One local man threatened that if they didn’t address the issue, neighbors would take it into their own hands. “Let me say this — they’ve got one more time to deal with it, because otherwise, next time they deal with it, they’re going to deal with it from the streets. We’re going to take over. Nobody is going to be able to stop us from what we’re going to do to them.”

What do these folks think the Democrat leaders of their city are going to do, enforce the laws?
In Queens, NY, people are protesting plans for a migrant shelter.
News Nation reports:
Queens residents protest new migrant humanitarian relief center
Any day now, New York City crews will start setting up a large outdoor migrant shelter on state-owned property in Queens.
However, the decision to relocate migrants is not sitting well with those living nearby.
Protestors have been pushing back against the city’s plan to open the newest humanitarian emergency response and relief center in Queens.
After it’s constructed, the shelter will be located adjacent to the Creedmore Psychiatric Center, and up to 1,000 adult male migrants will be brought there.
Demonstrators say they have safety concerns and want to make sure children in the area are not in danger when the center opens in a few weeks.
“You’re talking about a thousand people just roaming the neighborhood, not knowing who they are, not knowing where they came from, or what’s going to happen. It’s just not fair for this neighborhood,” one woman protesting said.
Many of these people had no problem with Democrat open-border policies when the only people affected by it were in Texas and Arizona. Now their communities are dealing with it, and suddenly it’s a big problem. Funny that.
Does anyone think this situation looks sustainable?

They voted for it, let them get them good and plenty
“Chicago residents sound off on illegal immigrants in neighborhood: ‘They disrespect us, rob us, harass us’”
“Of course we’ll continue to vote for Democrats. Why do you ask?”
To be specific, it’s the black residents who are the ones who are finally got fed up, vocal, and are getting attention.
In these Dem administrations other races need not apply. Had a white or Asian resident said what those black ones so rightfully did they would have been ejected from the meeting, perhaps arrested, and certainly gotten their names placed on various surveillance lists.
I’m a Chicago-area resident (work in the city, live in the burbs). Virtually every person in the affected neighborhoods on the south and west sides of the city voted for Mayor Johnson in the last election. Before that they voted for Ms. Lightfoot.
In the last election the other finalist was Paul Vallas, a well-meaning, reasonably-connected, ideas guy who wanted to fix the illegal immigration problem, the schools, and mass-transit. He lost to Mr. Johnson, a democratic socialist/communist (his words, not mine) backed by the teacher’s union, for whom he previously worked.
And now nothing is being done about illegal immigration, policing, the crime wave, and the schools. Quelle surprise.
You voted for Mr. Johnson, folks. You knew what was coming.
It’s good to see you here, I haven’t seen you comment in a long time.
Yup. In a suburb of Chicago, the libs are mad bc the city is taking away their one park fieldhouse and will house migrants there. They voted for this, 63% of them for the socialist!! https://abc7chicago.com/chicago-migrants-broadway-armory-park-fieldhouse/13559681/
And one guy used Find my Phone to find his stolen phone and found it with a migrant at his bedroll in a Chicago police department lobby.
FYI: Edgewater is a neighborhood in the heart of Chicago, not an outlying suburb.
“They disrespect us, they rob us, they harass us.”
I can’t disagree with any of that, but I always find it amusing that some people feel that others have an obligation to “respect” them.
Coming from Chicago, and immensely grateful to be gone, this is no different than what you do to each other. So, there’s that. Now it’s just being perpetrated in different languages.
Poor babies, complaining about the policies of the Administration they put in office. Votes matter. Next time they vote maybe they’ll think of the consequences.
Completely incapable of doing so. They vote D and skin tone.
When 93% of blacks vote Democrat, “D” and skin tone are the same.
Facts are not racist. Blacks as Democrats is not stereotyping.
White north side liberals always vote D, skin tone is an added bonus. A very dear friend is white, voted for him because while she doesn’t like him PERSONALLY, she likes his policy ideas.
I about fell over.
Why do people allow themselves to be labeled. Does anyone need a label next to their name on the voters check list? I can find out if my neighbor is registered
to vote and what affiliation they are and if they voted last election. And it’s called a ‘secret ballot ‘? Let’s get rid of our foolish representative government where we elect and pay someone to vote for us. In today’s world most politicians can not be trusted with protecting the people’s will.
Meanwhile at the southern border …
Did these people not get the memo or something? Diversity and inclusivity are our strength. ; )
And Sanctuary Cities are important to paperless invaders.
The local population does not care for Latino foibiles? They must be racist.
Classic NIMBYs. ‘Cause this behaviour is perfectly fine if it happens to someone else someplace else.
This response is kind of late because they should have realized that their future and current jobs are going to be lost as well as their neighborhoods. Many, not all of the illegals have a much stronger work ethic than many blacks and once Congress allows green cards for them, they will replace any poor worker or take new jobs. Here in GA, almost all public works laborers are now Hispanic and they are good workers. Most of the yard service people here are Hispanic which used to be blacks. Be careful what you vote for is a lesson many Dems are now contemplating.
I agree on this point about folks doing some ‘contemplating’. Previously many loyal d/prog voters focused on the ‘free stuff’ aspects of d/prog policies. Why not when in the short term it was a net positive b/c the bills were postponed into larger public debt and frankly many of these voters don’t pay income taxes and so had zero incentive to focus on cost of govt.
Today with illegal immigrants spread all over the place in huge numbers there is a far more visible cost. Crowded schools now adding large numbers of ESL students and the costs associated with that, increased demand for municipal/County services, increases in petty and not so petty crimes, competition for unskilled or low skill labor. As the direct cost/impact at the local level become more clear to those who previously were free riding and carefree about the bills the political calculus may change.
Correct. Additionally, when the producers and the payers move out of these cities, and tax revenue drops, Gimmeedats will have to increase their “disrespect, robbery and harassment.”
The other aspect of the ‘great migration’ internally of the exodus of many middle-class, small business owners, retiree and even some larger employers is the in migration to these locations of illegal aliens and/or depending on weather the homeless.
In essence a larger portion of the income tax base has departed. Property taxes revenue is about to plunge as commercial real estate (CRE) is drastically deprived lower (saw a claim that a Billion sq ft of office space in the US is vacant).
People have talked about the ‘urban doom loop’ for some time but it is beginning to arrive in force when CRE is no longer paying close to the same property taxes. When employers large and small depart, when retires and young families bail out. All replaced to some degree by a non English speaking class of folks depending upon govt support and who will over consume far more scarce public resources.
Thats why they are building section 8 in the suburbs
I doubt that many democrat voters know or care about government costs, especially if they make voting decisions based on what the see on television.
from the video “holding migrants accountable” – just how are they planning to do that? prison time? exportation? court dates?
I think the one guy has it right – street justice is coming. If the elected leaders do not uphold their end of the social contract, the people will take matters into their own hands. And when we get to that point, it will not be pretty. And, I suspect it will spread.
and then – that lovely loose coalition of BIPOC groups will splinter on … language.
The elected leaders haven’t held up their end of the social contract, and it’s been going on for quite a while; most of these Democrat strongholds haven’t elected a conservative in decades.
What’s happening is that people are starting to see it, and not in some esoteric “someone else, someplace else” kind of way. Suddenly, it’s hitting them directly, in their own neighborhoods, good and hard. Suddenly, they’re seeing first-hand the grim reality of “Sanctuary Cities”, no-cash bail, and open borders, which previously only affected far-away border states. Suddenly they’re realizing that the border states’ warnings — that went unheeded over MSM cries of “racism” — were neither over-exaggerated nor race-based.
If the leaders don’t respond to serve the citizens who voted them in, I fear “street justice” is indeed coming. It will be ugly, it will be violent, police will be powerless (any who interfere will become targets), and because it will come as a response to the violation of the social contract, it probably won’t end well for the migrants or the elected leaders. The residents will all take a lesson from their own street thugs; everyone’s name will suddenly be “Dindu Nuffin” and “Dinsee Nuffin”.
The only question is, in the aftermath, will the residents keep voting for the same ideology that got them here?
Slight correction: Thinking about this further, the elected leaders didn’t necessarily violate the social contract. They subtly and quietly replaced the old social contract with a new one that prioritizes non-citizens and criminals over voting residents.
The outrage is that the residents have realized the bait-and-switch and are responding with the righteous anger of the patsy who uncovers the con job and realizes he’s been taken for everything he has.
The rest of the comment stands: Unless the course is corrected, “street justice” is coming, and it will not be pretty.
Noting especially that the cops in Chicago are NOT going to get in the way of the coming race war between blacks and hostile foreign invaders. And to be honest, as a retired Peace Officer, I absolutely understand and do not blame them. They are already short of cops, and getting shorter.
I will also note that a blog that had to shut down for a couple of years because the Chicago machine was looking for it far more energetically than they fight crime, “Second City Cop”, is back online. I think the writer has retired and is depending on contacts in the Department now.
One thing I learned. Chicago claims that almost all of its police leadership are “merit” promotions and not affirmative action. In its own mendacious way that is true. In Chicago civil service jargon, if you are promoted by testing and scoring high, you are considered as “coming off the list”. If you are an affirmative action or political promotion, it is called literally a “merit” promotion.
As they now can hire and promote hostile foreign invaders as law enforcement officers [As of tomorrow I think it is there is no longer a citizenship requirement] everybody’s dance card is going to get real full, real quick.

Second City Cop is a great blog, innit? 🙂
Seriously, though, I would firmly correct anyone who describes the coming hostilities as a “race war”.
Yes, it will be mostly Blacks against mostly Hispanics.
But far more importantly, it will be Americans against hostile foreign invaders. The “race” part is coincidental and does not significantly contribute to the conflict.
But it’s probably too much to hope the MSM will portray that truth when there’s a “race war” to cover.
Hmm, kind of like emptying the local public housing projects into nearby neighborhoods. Call it ‘block busting’ and you might get some attention. If not, do “White Flight” 21st century style with different players. Tell the media it isn’t how these new comers look…it’s the crime. It has always been the crime..
Stolen elections have consequences…. as does generationally voting lock step for local marxist meat puppets who pander to your particular demographic, yet deliver nothing but 3rd world toiletries. Then, you re-elect them!
The voters are the problem.
Couple what’s going on in Chicago with what’s going on in places like Oakland, I’d say black voters are getting exactly what they deserve.
Or, Democrat voters are getting what they deserve.
It’s another protected class, and one that has a somewhat higher IQ on the average (92 vs 86), so a target for wrath.
They most likely voted for Joe, who campaigned on the promise to let at least 3 million illegals come in, so sit down and shut up, and in 2024, correct your mistake
7 million, at least
They won’t correct their mistake, because that would require admitting that they were in some way responsible for what happens in their lives. It is a nice thought, but it is fiction.

If people who were born here would work there would be no need for a massive influx of foreign workers. Take a look around and see who is doing all the hard work.
True, though the incentives keep folks sidelined into the cash economy of side hustle. Want folks to get to work? Easy. Cut off all benefits and assistance programs for the able bodied between 18 and 65.
Limit unemployment to 90 days then the State unemployment office tells you which which job they picked for you based on your skill set/resume starting the next day. Turn it down if you wish but benefits end either way.
Single parents? Tough, go to work; no special status and no special funds simply b/c you were promiscuous and irresponsible about birth control. Your family can bail you out of your poor decisions or not. Either way those poor choices are your responsibility.
That’s only true if you have jobs for people.
There are jobs for people. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a bald-face liar.
There are about 10 Million job openings in the US as of June. Don’t forget that some people currently employed might see a booming Main Street economy (as opposed to Wall St Fake economy) and become entrepreneurs. They would be creating not only their own employment but as their business grows employ mkre folks.
No able bodied adult should be drawing benefits instead of working a job and earn is salary. At least put their ass to work in the State Parks or cutting grass on the interstate or cleaning up vacant lots, demolishing abandoned housing or whatever. There’s plenty of things they could do to earn the check they NIW receive for nothing.
This is only half true. People are willing to work if paid enough. Corporations however want to pay as little as possible for labor. So the use supply and demand, increase the supply of workers and you can decrease salaries.
Why do you think Trump is popular.
False. People will not do work they don’t like regardless of the wage you pay them. Most fast food restaurants have increased the starting salary to the Left-requested of $15 hourly; some places pay well above that. And those places are constantly hiring. Guess what? None of those jobs are getting filled and they still have high turnover.
It’s not the pay that is the problem; it is that people don’t want to do the work. You van raise the wage to $30 hourly and people Stull wouldn’t want to do the work. We have created a culture of sloth and laziness.
I suspect that if we make the alternate to working and earning a wage to pay for groceries/ rent an acute case of starvation in the gutter that a large % of able bodied folks will go get and keep a job to avoid that.
Private charity and family support is fine as long as it is voluntary. Taxes ain’t voluntary. Stop using our taxes to subsidize the lifestyle choices of the lazy. See 2nd Thessalonians 3:10 ‘if any would not work, neither should he eat’.
OR
‘…the labors of thirty of forty honest and industrious men shall not be consumed to maintain a hundred and fifty idle loiterers’.

Instead of mocking the foolish d/props, a forward looking political party would be distributing recall ballots and positioning a candidate for an electoral coup.
Republicans aren’t that party.
There are fortunes to be made in the race/poverty business. Have been since the 1950s..
Even race hustling is a multigenerational gig.
Not much chance of anyone changing their vote over this.
That’s because it’s Trump’s fault. /s
Actually changing a voter registration is difficult for blacks, if they even had an ID in the first place. Ask any White Liberal with a Savior Complex.
One ironic thing about all this complaining is that if you take the total illegals Biden has let in and multiply by any of these sanctuary cities US population-based fair share percentage, none of them have their fair share of the total. Furthermore, they have better resources to deal with this than some Southwest town so, arguably, should get more than their population-based fair share.
What a bunch of racists. I guess it was OK when blacks would complain about other blacks, when “They disrespect us, they rob us, they harass us.”
But now that it’s illegal immigrants all of a sudden it becomes a problem. Can’t have those people running the joint, can we?
Note to Shitcago residents, as well as IllinNoise residents. You voted for it, you take it.
Whiners.
Did you look at that video those were blacks probably from Haiti or Africa
As we pointed out in another article last week: It’s not racist for Black people to want to be safe from crime.
White people who want to be safe from crime may as well be active KKK or Stormfront members.
Hispanic/Latino and Asian people who want to be safe from crime … well, the (Leftist-run) MSM says their opinions don’t matter.
(OK, the MSM doesn’t say that — that would be racist — but they pointedly don’t cover, interview, or quote anyone from those groups on this issue, which amounts to the same thing; their opinion isn’t “newsworthy”.)
Gee, you declared Chicago a sanctuary city and now your bluff has been called. Boo hoo.
Hey Chicago voters . . . everything is great.
Keep voting Dem!
Short form:
When it was non-Leftists enduring the hostile foreign invasion, leftists had absolutely no problem with it. They did not care for those who used to be their countrymen on the borders and encouraged the invasion. When Leftists are being forced to take responsibility for encouraging the invasion and face the consequences, suddenly it is a problem.
Guess what? You did not care what happened to the rest of the country and how much they suffered. Now the rest of the country returns the favor. If we cannot close the borders; then ship as many invaders as possible to Leftist Sanctuary Cities.

The Illinois Governor just signed a bill allowing illegals to become police officers. Now they can inflict the same mayhem or worse under color of law. Cheer it all on, while female school teachers. Your vote is so precious.
Let’s clear up a misconception that they’re asylees or migrants.
They’re ILLEGAL ALIENS who were promised the world by Democrats.
Bingo. Migrants keep moving. Asylees claim asylum at a port of entry and come in legally.
These immigrants are neither; they come and stay, and they not only didn’t claim asylum, they actively avoided all points of entry.
But I wouldn’t call them “illegal aliens” (though they are). It’s far too tame and overused a term.
Instead, call them “foreign invading settlers”.
Alternatively — since the Left hates the concept, and because these immigrants tend to form isolated, insular sub-communities within the neighborhoods they settle — “foreign colonists” also works.
The “inner city crowd” doesn’t want the competition for urban crime. It’s a classic turf battle.
LOL.. Sanctuary city.. You wanted it you got it. Just to be spiteful towards trump and our immigration laws
To the Democrat party, this reaction by residents is expected and is part of the calculus. What is happening in Chicago is what is happening in the EU and Canada — migrants are being invited in not to assimilate with the culture but to assimilate the culture. The purpose is to destroy the sovereignty of the citizen, along with the language and customs. The post no-borders society where the constitution doesn’t apply because the newcomers never lived in free or non-corrupt governance.
All Chicago has to do is hold out a bit longer then it will not matter what the residents say or do. That’s the plan, as being done in LA, Portland, Seattle, NYC and other places.
