A deprived Boston community has been left 'on fire' after the governor of Massachusetts requisitioned a vital rec center to house the surge of migrants arriving in the city.
Democrat Maura Healey was accused of treating the Roxbury neighborhood 'like garbage' after she locked residents out of the Melnea A. Cass Recreational Complex with less than 48 hours notice.
She insisted it was needed to house the new arrivals, dozens of whom have been sleeping rough in the city's airport for months. But residents in the majority-black neighborhood demanded she explain why their cherished facilities had been chosen to take the hit.

Don’t forget to thank President Biden at the voting booth for taking your Rec Center away from you and giving it to non-citizens.

One hopes this is one more lesson for blacks that will sink in.

An apocalyptic battle over Free Stuff - - a/k/a Other People's Money.
Did it ever occur to the "community" to build their own rec center - - free from government meddling? Silly me even asking that question.

Why not send the migrants back to their own countries of origin. It would be cheaper.

Still the Democrat message is "If They Don't Vote Biden, They Ain't Black".
How out of touch, Dems must think they are stupid or something.

The position of blacks at the top of the grievance ladder is no longer the case and they don’t like it. Brown is the new top category.

The Boston Mayor is a leftist and socialist Democrat. Leftist and socialist Democrats believe that they have the votes of most Black American voters who live in their so-called sanctuary cities “in the bag” so to speak. Therefore those leftist and socialist Democrat politicians are bypassing the needs and wants of Black Americans, and are attempting to form and organize a “New American" support and voter constituency made up of unlimited numbers of mostly all Third World origin poor and uneducated illegal aliens who they plan to legalize through Democrat designed “path to citizenship” amnesties and other legalization programs. The way to stop that is for Black Americans to wake up and not automatically hand their future support and votes to corrupt leftist and socialist Democrat politicians and instead give their votes to the individual politicians and political party will really listen to them and deal them a straight deck.

This is part of his "Fundamental Transformation of America" promised by President Obama on his Inaugration Day. You elected him.
Remember?

Just think, the $500,000 being spent to renovate the rec center to accommodate the illegals could purchase about 1000 one way airline tickets back to Mexico or some other warmer, south of the border destination. That would get rid of all of the 125 families and a lot more! IT also save the other costs associated with housing them like food, utilities, staffing.... A win win for everyone (who is a US citizen paying for this farce)!

Don't forget all Trump wanted was $5 billion to finish the border wall/fence/barrier (they change the word depending on who is talking about the issue).
But the Democrats wanted the political issue to use against Republicans instead.
And the current immigration conversation still does not address this issue which is why many Republicans are against the current versions of the Senate discussions.
Funnel the migrants to the official Ports of Entry locations which would free up border patrol agents.

Let me know how these residents of Boston vote in November.
I know what to expect, but I may be surprised.
Look at the bright side, black community, even though you no longer enjoy top victim status, you had a good run.

I guess they'll just have to sit on the porch at the projects and drink 40s as they smoke their newports.
