Residents of a Maine town have hit out at the $13 million construction of a complex of 60 apartments for asylum seekers, where they can live rent free for two years then pay a fraction of the rental price.
Locals in Brunswick have expressed fury over the project, which is being funded by a mix of private and public money and which has been heavily criticized by Donald Trump Jr.
The apartment complex in Brunswick is one of the many projects being launched by the town in what critics have labeled a 'Taj Mahal', red-carpet welcome for asylum seekers.

Instead, they need to be herded at bayonet point onto buses, handcuffed to the seat in front of them for a ride non-stop to the border.
And ten years in prison if ever found in the USA again, regardless of excuses.

But, but the poor migrants. The poor emigrates. They've poured in for years in the southern states and the northern states were sympathetic to them. Now, not so much I see. Frankly, I'm laughing at Maine. Enjoy your new 'citizens' and they will vote in your elections. Think about that for a while.

Those apartments will be trashed in 3 months or less. Remember what the hotel rooms looked like?

Plus you know they will take good care of the property.
And good luck trying to evict them after two 2 years.

This is what happens when blue state parasites invade your state and destroy it. Maine will soon be a S-hole with nice views.

Good. They keep voting with the idiots in power in Washington. Perhaps they will wake up after they are inundated with criminals. And don't say immigrants because they are here ILLEGALLY!

I checked the Brunswick webpage. There is a GoFundMe page for the new Mainers.
Isn't this a college town? Why not throw in a college education?

60 units? That won't accommodate more than 2 or 300 'New Voters', but it gives than an address for the mail-in votes.

Smart Maine residents (there are a few) should visit a tanning bed for a few weeks and buy a book on Espanol. This lunacy will only stop when the money is gone.

I would imagine most of the invaders are from warm climates. ME should be a shock and there will be little relief as tge dims remove "fossil fuel" heating

Oh Maine…..you voted for this, I hope you get the FULL RANGE of “newcomer” love……rapes, murders, filth, depredation….oh, I hope you suffer all of it.
Because your voting will foist it upon US.

Our government did this with Haitian refugees in a nice area near LSU years ago.
It remains crime ridden, and lowers the property value of those nearby.

Nothing to worry about. When 44&46 takes over they will be easier to locate and deport.

Some see the state as predominately white, and there are those who believe that "white" is BAD - very bad. (They should review the recent history of South Africa where the best and brightest left for better and safer environments, others were frightened away, and many were murdered on their own farmlands. And so, their infrastructures are collapsing, over fifty percent are on welfare, their farms are in disrepair, and communism is taking over.)

I have a thought.
You hear several people lately suggest either we shut down the border (southern--though the northern border also presents a challenge), or shut down the government. Why can't we do both simultaneously?
Seems to make sense.

Just wait what these apartments will look like after 2 years. Will just take several millions to fix them up. And yes, you will pay for it again!

Here is the Go Fund Me page for the Brunswick illegals. They have raised 72,000 and are looking for 100,000. They expect the units to be ready by this summer so the Salvadorean and Venezuelan convicts and criminals should start arriving then. These clueless people have no idea what's coming in the hot,
summer months. Bowdoin College is in Brunswick so yes, it's a college town.
