    When the Haitians gained independence from France in 1804 the only form of government they were familiar with was the French. They treated their people just like the French treated them and governed similarly. Governing by example. No real surprise there. This combination of historical circumstances plays a big part in where they are today. A sad state of affairs. My heart goes out to them.

    This is problematic and frankly racist☝️ these people could be future doctors, engineers, and even astronauts. Dominican Republic has more than enough land and money to subsidize these asylum seekers and its hurtful to see them turned away. As we have seen in Ohio they integrate fine. Full👏 stop👏

  3. DR probably doesn’t have the safety net to care for that many immigrants given that it is technically a poor country itself and small.

  4. Canada should follow with international students claiming asylum or here under false pretense. 100k a week 🙏🏽

  5. I see a lot of xenophobic cowards are on Reddit today. Haitians are doing great in America. We should deport Trump supporters and import more Haitians.
