City meeting over housing migrants turns heated

Chicago's shelter system is bursting at the seams and now the mayor wants to open the old South Shore High School to newly arriving migrants.

Too bad they have treated homeless Americans like crap and a lot of them are our veterans that fought for us

[citizencoy]

I just want to know why isn’t there ever an urgency like this for Americans that need help?

[cosandraodame]

I don't think I could ever vote democratic again.

[brownbagz]

They won't even help the people who already live in Chicago and are struggling!

[michaelnitsch]

HOW COME THEY HAVE NOT DONE THIS FOR OUR HOMELESS AND VETERANS?

[robinpowell]

Help Veterans and legal citizens first. Why are we helping ILLEGALS??? Brandon wants their votes.

[blewsy]

I guess they should stop saying they are a sanctuary city 🤷🏻‍♂️.

[teresaalford]

Don't forget being housed in a $300 a night downtown hotel that's not making the news!!! Officials are trying to keep that quiet

[ken]

The bigger problem is none of these people complaining had a problem with it until it shows up in their neighborhood.

[HolicChan]

They deserve no federal help until Texas gets federal help.

[Adonis]

That’s what you voted for citizens of Chicago, live with your decision now.

[davidmotes]

Just getting a SMALL crumb of what Texas is dealing with. Keep it up Gov Abbott .

[Kapplerartbloomingdale]

Sad. A lot of people in my area are suffering. Not just minorities. People like us are denied and still suffers. This is selective help.❤

[dianesimpson]

Again I say; help our homeless United States citizens, who are veterans; abused women and children; people who have lost jobs due to illness; and people who have mental illness who without help have become homeless, including people with Alzheimer's and dementia. They need shelter, food, and baths also!

Dont forget that title 42 ends next week America

[johnv]

Not as tolerant of outsiders as we were told they would be.. I mean it is a Sanctuary City.. Give them some sanctuary..

[Tryingtomakeitmakesense]

Now you know what us Texans have been going through. Sharing is caring.

[Bonnie-hkev]

We need Pres Trump to return us to Energy independence, Low inflation, Secure borders and No new wars.

[TheHomieNess]

They’re more worried about the 250 migrants at their doorstep rather than the 250, 000 at the border

[cheri]

I don't understand why they're mad. They voted for it.
