They came here illegally. At what point do you expect them to follow the laws?

Now, if they’re not afraid to attack police, what do you think they’ll do to random people walking by.

[helpstarvingartist]

This situation is beyond me. If any of our homeless try to sleep near a police station, they get arrested. But the criminal illegal get to sleep inside with breakfast, lunch and dinner. What a disgrace.

Amnesty at the border needs to end. The only asylum seekers allowed should be those that applied at embassies.

[godssara]

This is disgusting. You are getting free resources off our backs and attack one of us? Deport immediately

[eveskey]

Our officers and legal citizens have the right to defend themselves against foreign invasion and assault.

[fredmac]

A group of people (mostly men of military age) entering a country illegally and committing violent acts on its citizens should not be looked at as asylum seekers or migrants but as an invading army.

It’s going to get worse . When they don’t get what they thought they would get .

[theotheleo]

If they do this to the police, think of what they'll do to the rest of society. They will only get worse. Deport them immediately.

Turning the police station into a hotel was a terrible idea.

[kindsofkinfs]

We owe these people absolutely nothing

[lindamartinez]

IF THEY ARE HOMELESS HERE, THEY CAN BE HOMELESS WERE THEY CAME FROM!! THEY HAVE BROKEN THE LAW BY COMING HERE ILLEGALLY!!!

[Hargsehm]

What does these non-citizens think citizens owe them? Personally I don't owe anyone anything. Get out of our country NOW!

[SimonTan-cq]

Don’t just arrest, arrest and DEPORT !

[beckinfidelis]

No assault against a police officer should be a "misdemeanor". The more people think it's no big deal the more they will do it!

[edolina]

Those 4 need to be deported immediately.

[dorothymckenna]

They think someone owes them something, we owe them nothing!

[mrsmith]

0:34 how do you go from “seeking asylum” to assaulting a police They should be deported immediately…

The mayor of Chicago was an activist for defunding the police.

[rosettagray]

We don't know who these people are, where they come from, or what harm they are capable of doing, but one thing is for sure - THEY HAVE MORE RIGHTS AS A "So called MIGRANT" THAN A NATIONALLY BORN AMERICAN CITIZEN... Something is wrong here.
