Seething Chicago resident explodes on Migrant Crisis: ‘Trump, come here & clean this mess up!’
Demands Mayor ‘send them all back’
DAILY MAIL
- Chicago’s City Council on December 14 held a meeting to discuss whether asking voters in March whether they want to end sanctuary city status
- The members of the council voted 31-16 to block any debate or vote on a proposal to place the non-binding referendum on the March primary ballot
- The hearing was boisterous, with members of the public speaking in favor of revoking the designation and keeping it, and loud boos and cheers
A well-known Chicago activist has called for Donald Trump to ‘come in here and clean up this mess,’ decrying the influx of migrants and urging authorities to ‘send them all back.’
George Blakemore, 81, has for the last 40 years attended every public meeting he can, from City Council to the Chicago Board of Education to the Water Reclamation District, Block Club Chicago reported.
Earlier this month, at a city council hearing to discuss putting Chicago’s sanctuary city status on the ballot in March, Blakemore spoke out against Chicago’s current policy towards migrants.
More than 26,000 migrants have arrived in Chicago over the past year by bus and plane, with about 14,000 currently in shelters. Greg Abbott, the governor of Texas, has sent migrants from his state to Democrat-run cities in the north, in a bid to pressure Joe Biden to take action.
The cities are struggling to cope – and in Chicago a five-year-old boy died in a freezing and damp Chicago shelter on Sunday, and many are sleeping in O’Hare airport or police station lobbies.
Blakemore, who is black, said the situation was untenable.
George Blakemore, 81, is pictured on December 14 addressing a meeting of the Chicago city council, where they discussed whether to put ending the sanctuary city status to a vote.‘I am anti-illegal immigrant,’ he said at the December 14 meeting. ‘Send them all back across the Rio Grande.’
He yelled: ‘We are the only people in America who were enslaved. We didn’t come over waiting and looking for something. When we came we built this country, on free labor.
‘To see another group come over here – it’s disgraceful, it’s un-American.’
He asked the council: ‘What about the black children? The black workers? They compete with us.’
Blakemore continued: ‘I am strictly advocating for black people. Call ICE on them.
‘Trump, come in here and clean this mess up. The most corrupt city in the United States is the city of Chicago.’
Another activist, who gave her name as Lorraine Lawrence, agreed with Blakemore.
‘I’m not for the sanctuary city,’ she said. ‘People have waited years to come in here legally. Not just come in on the buses. This is ludicrous.
‘West Side and South Side black communities have been earmarked for having funds, but never seen it.’
She added: ‘Is it fair to these communities that have been waiting for years?’
