Charleroi

again, it didnt become an issue here until..............again you posted it, not me not any other poster but you.

i have lots of things i find disgusting going on that i could post but

1. i dont have the time like some of you do

2. why? is it going to change your mind? HD's mind? tommy? nope
do any of you admit when you are proven wrong? nope and before you say it, i can pull up a few threads where i admitted being wrong, you see mature adults do that, something most lack on here

so quit babbling with another post stating this wasnt an issue until trump brought it up when it became an issue on here when in fact you did... Originally Posted by chizzy

CHARLEROI, Pa. (KDKA) — A business owner in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, said the immigrant population is working jobs Americans do not want.

It's a 24-hour, round-the-clock operation of packaging tens of thousands of prepared food items for major retailers.

"This is a day shift in one of our bowl rooms," David Barbe of Fourth Street Foods. "We operate 26 production lines for sandwiches, dinner and breakfast bowls."

Barbe has 1,000 employees. Of the 700 or so who work the assembly line, almost all are immigrants here legally on protected status from troubled countries like Haiti, Liberia and Nepal. The hours are long and monotonous, and Barbe says he gets almost no local applicants.

"They're not taking jobs away from people in Charleroi?" KDKA-TV's Andy Sheehan asked.

"If I had 300 Americans come in today and they wanted to work, we'd make room for them," Barbe said.

"It's not glorious work, line assembly work," he added. "You might put the lid on 60,000 sandwiches a day."

700 ppl is hardly a huge influx of bad apples. They are doing work that nobody else wants or applied to do.

Same story as every migrant worker in the USA. Doing shit work cause lazy Americans won't

There are 2000 illegals in Charleroi. Debunked.

There are 2000 Haitians in Charleroi. Debunked.

They were dumped into Charleroi. Debunked.

They're all unemployed. Debunked.

They're eating the pets in Charleroi. Debunked.

They're all voodoo practitioners. Debunked.

They're all uneducated trash. Debunked.

We can keep going. The particular brand of ignorant intolerance, stereotyping and xenophobia on display ain't gonna win the day, let alone the war, Qpadre.

You didn’t debunk anything. The fake trip to Charleroi didn’t impress. Besides, your last paragraph you stole from Hillary Clinton. Verbatim

For all his bluster and bigotry... Trump did something good.

He's galvanizing folks to help Chizzy with his Charleroi immigrant problem. Not by kicking them out like Bam wants. By finding ways to help embrace them. Like the JFCS has done. Like PA Careerlink has done. Like the Catholic charities have done. Like Bernabe, Bartolotta and Barbe have done.

And, the attention also helps put pressure on Anchor Hocking as new energy has been given to the efforts to help fight the Pyrex plant closure.

Thank you, Former President Trump for the attention. Fuck you for being a bigoted troll, but we can co-opt that energy into something positive.

Despite your attempt to divide... folks will unite. Just not how you wanted.

Mainly, it's the accusation that some of us can't admit when we're wrong. To explain it any further would be going off-topic, and I'm not going down that rabbit hole.
