Morgan ahead of others in refugee resettlement - Fort Morgan Times

In some ways, Fort Morgan is ahead of other cities that are dealing with an unexpected influx of refugees.

[almost hit]

all these great things we do for them but what do they give us?

Here's what:

Fear to drive on the streets or walk on the sidewalks

the first murder in town in 3 years

children run over by laughing somalies

special treatment in our schools for prayer

OUR women gawked at in public

our jobs taken over at local employers

public loitering rampant across town

the somolia elders are increasingly running this town. we dont need a mayor and city council.

you can pat yourself on the back all you want onemorgan county, but your support of these people who will never acclimate to the American way of life or our beliefs, is a joke.

[Almost jacked]

Very well put Almost Hit. I need a pair of those rose colored glasses. Sonolians have no respect for our laws. Seems they can do anthing they want and get away with it too. NOT WITH THIS CHICK. The only way they are going to learn is for the people of this town to show them, that its going to STOP and ITS GONNA STOP NOW. Im just waiting for another one to mess with me. Like I said before, STRAP UP AND GIVE HELL.

[Momma3]

Well said...both of you!!! I agree completely!

[MDS]

I agree as well. The citizens of our community doesn't deserve this. We live in fear and frankly want nothing more than to sell my house to move out and away at a safe distance. Sorry, I fear for my son riding his bike up and down the sidewalk. I fear for kids walking home from school. I hear about their tribal differences and violence and frankly it scares me to death. Some of them do not appreciate what has been done for them.

[rebecca]

I agree with you all. Someone's child is going to get hurt by one of these men or boys. Better not be mine..i'm straped up and ready !! I knew the person murdered 3 years ago. His killer got very little time and is out now. This is how Justice works in our ,what use to be, great town.

[juswondering]

I agree 100% with what has been written thus far. It is a hard pill to swallow having so-called refugees shoved down our throats when the people whom have lived here for years are not afforded the same opportunities.

I have ranted for some time about the fine beef plant and their placating of these folks, I ask the higher ups there as well, are you affording the non-refugee citizens of Morgan County the same educational and employment opportunities? I have deliberately done my part so as not to patronize such business practices by raising and processing my own non-chemically induced beef, I will refrain and suggest to others to do the same when it comes to patronizing businesses who claim on the one hand to be American and do nothing more than take from Americans and give to others. We do have a choice in the matter, we can be heard one way or another, our loss of dollars to this industry is a loss of a vote at the ballot box.

I am not against churches or religion but it seems to me that there is a shift in this country to save every citizen of every other country except our own, this needs to stop.

When this influx started to occur I asked myself who was the rocket scientist behind this, take a group of black refugees and move them to an agricultural part of the State to start out? We need to stop with the sugar coating and over political correctness and get back down to calling it like we see it.

This whole delusional concept of assimilation is for the birds, who is expected to assimilate, those whom live here or those whom come here, I submit to you it is becoming those whom have lived here. It is ironic that we are in an atmosphere of immigration control and some have suggested closing our borders and we continue to bring people into this country by the bus loads.

When such moves are contemplated by the rocket scientists perhaps they should stop to consider the negative impact on a region and not simply discount the fact that everyone will be accepting of it. I am sick of a continuing pattern of "assimilating" to other cultures and beliefs in a country I have lived in my entire life.

Thanks Cargill and the fine politicians whom are bought and paid for in Morgan county, perhaps it is time to send a message to these folks as well, new faces, new places...just like the refugees you have bombarded us with.

Can someone tell me a good place a true red blooded American can migrate to and be equally placated?

I believe totally in EQUAL opportunity for all BUT not at the expense of others.

[almost hit]

very, very well put. I agree 100% with your view points.

[GET OUT]

Im tired of all this skinnies in our town. We need to get rid of all of them. All they do is cause trouble and make our town worse. We have people in the town that cant get jobs because they are all taken up by these skinnies. I say to all the people that we start standing up to them and run them out like the old west.

[WorriedMom]

I wish it were as easy as to blame Cargill but from what I've been reading, it goes all the way to a national level. The Lutheran Churches need to stop bringing them over and hoping they will convert. If anything bring over the converts and leave the others. This may sound bad but it is what it is.

[Tired]

I'm just tired of it all. The driving, my kids not being able to walk home from school,(in fear they will be taken out in a crosswalk), going to the post office is a danger in itself. The Somlians arguing in the stores, on the streets, at jobs, the special prayer times, the accidents and general lack of respect for the American people and what we have tried to do for them.

But what do we expect? They come from a lawless country. Has anyone seen Blackhawk Down? Have we forgotten where they come from? The United States has tried to help, but they rejected our efforts. I'm sorry it was a war torn country, but why is this our fault? Why sould my family suffer? There is no gratitude. We tried to help them in their own country, it didnt work. So hey, lets bring them here and try and put a square peg in a round hole! That's the ticket! Not.

Ok I'm done. Just my thoughts.

[juswondering]

WorriedMom, you have a good point about the Lutheran Churches. I ask, has the religious community become so capitalistic that it is now dealing with humans as a commodity? It seems that to do this and afford such opportunity brings with it a loyalty to a certain religious group as opposed to others and this results
in more money in the collection plates.

Involuntary servitude is still alive and well, with many different and hidden agendas. Do you think these people will ever stop and ask themselves why they are treated so much better than they were in their mother land, I doubt seriously that will happen when it is tit for tat regarding those taking advantage and those being taken advantage of.

Let's sweep with a big broom come election time and take back what is ours folks, if they can not work in our best interest, they need to be removed instead of placated like the "refugees".

I continue to insist that Cargill and others are affording opportunities to these folks they are not to others whom have lived in the region their entire lives. I do agree that it is occurring on a national level but like everything it does not affect me until in MOBY (my own back yard), at least that is what we use to gauge such concerns.

One can force crap down our throats BUT that does not mean we have to like the taste of it.

The skinnies? This is such a redneck comment.

[mad as hell]

I dont understand we have million of homeless americans living out on the street and need jobs and here we are giving refugees jobs and places to live. we need to start helping our people first before any thing.

Well let me tell you something Mr. or Ms. "Tired", your comment is not as insulting as you intended it to be and quite the contrary is pretty accurate except of course your derogatory intent. If you will, please take a moment to research the term "redneck" and you will find it is not the common derogatory intent you mean but one of a hard working person working in the sun for long hours, hence the "red neck". Such a term has taken on a negative and derogatory connotation over the years because yes, such people are opinionated, and yes they are not quite as tolerant as some other "go along, get alongs" in society.

The term "skinnies" on the other hand refers to a group of people not known to carry a great deal of weight on their bones, hence what we see being forced down our throats. your moniker "Tired" is probably one accurately chosen but you do not understand fully the connotation behind it, it is one of "tired" alright, the rest of us in this "redneck" region being tired of the likes of you and your "go along, get along" ways.

Perhaps in the future when you intend to throw about an insult, you will first do your homework to make certain it is not in all actuality, a compliment. On behalf of my many "redneck" friends in the region, we thank you and you just took top spot on our invite list for our next BBQ, guess what's for dinner, you guessed it...home grow and raised "redneck" beef.

[Annoyed]

That is the PROBLEM, we have had contact with them, enough to last a lifetime. Listen to your community!!

[almost hit]

Bravo juswondering!

[Almost jacked]

Like I said, take back your town folks. Its pretty easy, just defend yourself, your children and your fellow americans. Call them what you want, who cares, but dont call them " Black " that gives black folks a bad name that they dont deserve. Another thing that needs to be said is that they are not muslims. I have known " True " muslims and they dont do the kind of stuff these somalians do. They are respectful and very nice people. It is discusting the mockery they make of true muslims. Most true muslims dont even wear that crap.

You seem to take offense to that comment, or relate to it somehow. So,.. all rednecks are also fatties? Thanks for clearing that up for me. I would love to come over to your BBQ, but I was unaware that beef is grown. Isnt it raised? Just sayin.

You are a bit smarter than I have given you credit for. Your juvenile logic and deduction is second to none and your ability to read AND comprehend the English language is in question. Now that you have mentioned it, not all, but many "rednecks" are in fact a few pounds more than the "skinnies". This is because of the home grown and raised beef (you failed to read part of it didn't you, indicative of a bureaucrat, lawyer or politician) we choose to eat instead of the "veggies". Clearing up anything for you? A concept as rare as running a race in the Special Olympics, one can never win. Now go back to the front range or your mountain town and relish in the misery the likes of you create, and take a "skinny" (present party excluded) with you..

[ckblu]

AMEN! ALSO It's not just happening in your neighborhood, but in every community to some degree. There needs to be some kind of revolution among the conservatives and I am not talking about dems disguised as reps. I am talking about a group on a national level formed from the grass roots who will say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!CLOSE THE BORDERS! I guarantee you when they pass some kind of health care bill we will be forced to include illegals. You can blame the liberals of this great country. It's time to fight and take back our country!
