You got any links to say the Haitians were "dumped" in Springfield? It was an economically distressed area that suffered a huge loss in population along with the loss of jobs... Consequently they went from a population of nearly 80,000 to 55 or 60,000.Come on dumping thousands of Haitians in Springfield OH is causing a lot of problems. Where do these people live? Where do they work? Social services are running out of money. And you call these concerns nativism?
Well one point is that Van is a low info voter (I assume he'll vote) who in his very post repeated lies from the Trump campaign...Democrats=Nativism under your definition. You don’t have a point.
Mitch Daniels would make an excellent president, sadly he will never run.I agree with this for the most part.
But wake me up the next time we have politicians who don’t exploit fear for political gain. It tends to work and is also about as predictable as the sunrise - which is why it’s notable when one comes along who doesn’t do this.
It’s one of the primary reasons I was so fond of Mitch Daniels. The only thing he’s really ever stoked fear about is our public debt - which I think warrants more fear than it usually elicits.

We saw the Harris and CBS collusion! We know what party is against voter ID. The Harris campaign is the lairs! But you don’t care. As long as the means justify the end.Well one point is that Van is a low info voter (I assume he'll vote) who in his very post repeated lies from the Trump campaign...
Lol..Come on dumping thousands of Haitians in Springfield OH is causing a lot of problems. Where do these people live? Where do they work? Social services are running out of money. And you call these concerns nativism?

Ask the people of Springfield. I was in Springfield the day before Trump repeated Vance’s lie about Haitians eating pets. I didn’t hear a complaint about Haitians, cats or dogs disappearing, or any particular problems at all. It’s almost like it’s all bullshit - which of course, it is.Come on dumping thousands of Haitians in Springfield OH is causing a lot of problems. Where do these people live? Where do they work?

You’re a pastor. Go with some of your congregation to Springfield and offer to help with whatever their problems are. Do a little outreach. Show them some Christian love and generosity.
They weren’t Christians.The Pharisees and Saducees weren’t necessarily concerned with helping the less fortunate
You won't get one. The race card is all libbys have to make their stupidity feel justified. It's funny also how these dumbasses are all for letting people into the country illegally,but none of them want those people in their neighborhoods(i.e. Martha's vineyard). Just another dumbass talking point based on emotion rather than logic. The election is slipping away from them...expect even more rhetoric in the coming weeks,as they are now in panic mode.I’m still waiting for an actual example from this board.
They’re welcome to my neighborhood. Would rather have a voodoo dog eating Haitian than a redneck KKK member any day of the weekYou won't get one.

I feel Van is very careful about following Mosaic lawThey weren’t Christians.
Van’s posts often strike me as intentionally stupid. I think we’re dealing with a troll.Well one point is that Van is a low info voter (I assume he'll vote) who in his very post repeated lies from the Trump campaign...
My church has trees, birds sing in my choir, no drama heard.By the xenophobia displayed on these boards masquerading as patriotism and “Christianity”. A lot of posters who claim Christian values need to actually pick up the Bible and study it. That’s my epistle. I’m prepared to get blasted. IDGAF anymore
It was the locals who drove this though:The "other" is scary until a person is directly exposed to the "other" and then that person realizes that "other" is just a human being who share many of the same values as they do.
The thing that sticks out to me is that it's not the locals who have driven this. It's national politicians who see an opportunity to exploit fear. It's effective because, while the people in Springfield who live and work with Haitians mostly are transcending that fear of the other, the people nationally responding to it don't have the interaction to do so and remain scared. The folks in Springfield have and are finding that there is a lot more to Haitians than voodoo.
You should move to Haiti. I heard the weather is great all year around.They’re welcome to my neighborhood. Would rather have a voodoo dog eating Haitian than a redneck KKK member any day of the week
Oh...the KKK...glad you brought it up. Another organization founded by democrats.They’re welcome to my neighborhood. Would rather have a voodoo dog eating Haitian than a redneck KKK member any day of the week
I realize you're trolling. But this seems like you completely missed the mark...We saw the Harris and CBS collusion! We know what party is against voter ID. The Harris campaign is the lairs! But you don’t care. As long as the means justify the end.
They're about a thousand years removed, so I'd say they aren't very true to those roots.How true to their Viking roots are they?
It isn't cool to sacrifice an animal to God then eat it. At that point it isn't a sacrifice but a meal.
Sure you are. You post like an 8th grader.I’m a physician. Of course I’m an incompetent moron
Says the guy that posts like a 6th grader.Sure you are. You post like an 8th grader.
A pretty damned smart 8th graderSure you are. You post like an 8th grader.
You should go watch some of the resident testimonials about the pets and animals being eatenI realize you're trolling. But this seems like you completely missed the mark...
Van starts with the supposition that Haitians in Springfield were dropped off suddenlyas some sort of "Fedreal resettlement program." Since this is a demonstrably false claim he (apparently) picked up from the campaign that claimed those same Haitians were eating pets he starts off dealing with an alternative reality. Since his basic premise is so flat out wrong. it's hard to give any credence to anything else he claimed in his post.
Trump is a perfect mouthpiece for his positions. He says exactly what he means and I don't believe for a moment that he means to say the things that Vance is saying and is just incapable.It was the locals who drove this though:
Residents of Springfield, Ohio attend city council meeting to share frustration about migrant crisis hitting their community | Fox News Video
A town meeting in Springfield, Ohio, erupted into chaos after massive influx of migrant takes over small town.www.foxnews.com
Saying the locals weren't taking issue with this is wrong. There were people upset enough about it to go to their City officials and petition them about it. Now when this story first broke, I did see one prominent guy who they interviewed who loved the Haitians and it was a factory owner.
Trump is not the best mouthpiece for his positions, but what Vance discusses in the video below is where the majority of Americans are at.
You guys can racism, racism all you want but there are economic and cultural impacts felt when you take in this many unskilled people who come from areas that aren't on the same page as where they are going at one time.
I will stand in defense of nativism to a degree. Sometimes the nativist argument is valid because adding people who are not in alignment with your cultural norms is bad for your native population, case in point:
And I don't want to hear the whole, "Well not all migrants...." Yeah, obviously. However, don't you think the vetting process should be pretty darn thorough before you allow a person to touch ground here? I do.

Read Van’s posts about Trump. I’m lazy. You’re lazy. Let’s see who holds out the longest
Libs say whatever fits their narrative or agenda,regardless of truth. It's has worked for the people they support so long that regular people think it's ok for them too.So one whacked out pastor represents a set of views, let alone this board?
Litmus test for your truthfulness. Who won the 2020 election? If you say Biden, then why is the person you support telling the biggest lie in political history?Libs say whatever fits their narrative or agenda,regardless of truth.

Who are you talking about????! I know it’s not the spiritual leader of the dream teamSo one whacked out pastor represents a set of views, let alone this board?

The MSM and democrats would make him out to be a racist and all the phobes.Mitch Daniels would make an excellent president, sadly he will never run.
Every voter should have an ID. Only U.S. citizens are allowed to vote. If you have to show ID to buy a pack of cigarettes,you can show ID to vote. There is nothing illogical about that. Not requiring ID to vote,when only U.S. citizens are allowed to vote, is illogical.This shitlib believes transgenderism is a disease and that every voter needs a valid ID.
