After Devastating Earthquake Anti-Immigrants Still Hate Haitian Immigrants

Many of us have heard about the extreme inflammatory remarks by Rush Limbaugh and Pat Roberson but the 700 club and whatever radio stations that are still airing Mr. Limbaugh aren't the only ones using this horrible disaster to broadcast hate.

ALIPAC one of the lead organizations in a network of Anti-immigrant hategroups posted a thread on their website discussing Senator Kirsten Gillibrand's proposal to grant temporary protected status (TPS) to Hatian's fleeing to the US and those scheduled to be deported back to Hati. Here are some of the things ALIPAC's members had to say about that:

 

Why are we messing with the rules? The quake happened yesterday, so no one should have "fled" to the US. This is a bad-bad-bad idea and out right stupid!

And this post by skipper0 who seems to argue that we shouldn't because they don't think we would get the same aid from Hati in a hypothetical disaster? Oh and people fleeing to the United States from Haiti are deadbeats.

Just supposing that the United States had a disaster that stretched from California to the Atlantic ocean, that is not likely but just suppose! Who do you think would come running to our aid???? Over the years back to before WW1 until now this country has spent trillions on fighting wars to rid the world of evil and we have always been the first and largest contributor when there was a natural disaster! Now we are in terrible financial trouble thanks to the current administration. Has anyone offered to help bail us out? NO! and they won't! Enough is enough! According to Fox this morning there are already ships on the way with medical help and food and probably construction materials to help the people rebuild! They are going to need all of their people to help rebuild the country so why in heaven's name would we allow a bunch of deadbeats who do not want to help rebuild their own country to migrate to OUR country??? Its insane to even think of allowing them in here unless they want and have to go through the legal process! That is not likely to happen!

Or this post stating that all Hatian's are gang members. Just like all Italians immigrants were in the mob and all Irish were pawns of the pope?

exactly....just like the central americans and their mara salvatrucha gang!! ask anybody from s. florida and they wioll tell you about the hatian gang problem they have there!!

And this random gem:

The third world, the terrorists, the people who hate us, keeps growing inside the United States with the help of politicians, and others.

And of course there is the obligatory post in all caps:

THESE PEOPLE ARE HERE ILLEGALLY AND IT SEEMS AS IF THE GOVERNMENT DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM DEPORTING THEM BUT WHEN IT COMES TO ILLEGAL HISPANICS THE RULES OF THE GAME CHANGES IN FAVOR OF HISPANICS. ILLEGAL HAITIANS SHOULD BE DEPORTED AND SO SHOULD ALL ILLEGAL MEXICANS AND THE REST OF THE ILLEGAL HISPANICS. AND ITS UP TO THE GOVERNMENT TO MAKE THE PUNISHMENT FOR RE-ENTERY INTO THE COUNTRY SWIFT AND SURE.IT SEEMS AS IF THEY HAVE GOT A FREE PASS TO COME AND GO WHEN EVER THEY WANT TO. AND TO SUM IT ALL UP, EVERYONE WHO IS IN THE COUNTRY ILLEGALLY SHOULD BE DEPORTED AND THAT SHOULD ALSO INCLUDE WOMEN AND THEIR ANCHOR BABIES. THE AUTOMATIC BIRTH RIGHT CITIZENSHIP NEEDS TO END STARTING YESTERDAY. THAT IS ONE REASON WHY THESE PREGNANT WOMEN COME HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE AND THE GOVERNMENT CAN PUT A STOP TO THIS IF THEY WANT TO.

Post claiming we shouldn't delay deportations because the media is making it seem "worse than it is."

Yep...throw her out. We can delay deportations for a couple weeks. THAT IS IT!! No TPS. And I even question delaying deportation. I have been reading up on the quake. It is only in Port Au Prince that there is a real problem. The outlying areas...some of those areas have no damage at all. Of course the media is concentrating their reporting on the worst hit area so it seems worse than it is.

You can read the rest of the enlightening thread here.

I wonder what about devastating natural disaster don't they understand?
