Fact Check: No evidence of Haitian immigrants stealing and eating pets in Ohio

...

"In a statement on Tuesday, a Springfield police spokesperson said, "In response to recent rumors alleging criminal activity by the immigrant population in our city, we wish to clarify that there have been no credible reports or specific claims of pets being harmed, injured or abused by individuals within the immigrant community."

...

SPRINGFIELD CLAIMS

Springfield Mayor Rob Rue on Monday said claims of geese or ducks from parks being killed and eaten are unsubstantiated, according to a Springfield News-Sun report.
 
In interviews last month, following claims at a city commission meeting that Haitians were cooking wildlife taken from local parks, a city official said they had not been able to verify any of those reports and described them as "false" and "misleading" information amplified by social media.

Why would Haitians want to leave Haiti? It must be a veritable paradise - all the population are descendants of black slaves and all the Government are black. No structural racism or white privilege to overcome. The sky is the limit as to what Haiti and individual Haitians can achieve.

Indeed. And no white oppressors to hold them down.

Obviously you know not too much about Haiti. Light skinned Haitians are the privileged class. The darker you are, the less you get.

I wonder how he knew they were Haitians? Were they speaking French? 

Maybe , just guessing, because the caller is familiar with the inhabitants 

who congregate at parks, corners  and 

fresh air departments in that area.

 

He was on his way to work!

In all the kerfuffle about geese and cats, nobody's discussing how 15-20,000 Haitian migrants ended up in a town of 60,000 people.  According to the mayor and the gub'ner, with no advance warning. 

 

As if any town could survive a 25-33% unplanned increase in population without devastating effects to the infrastructure, traffic, healthcare, and general quality of life.

 

Masterful diversion by the MSM...

 

  To your point :
 

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is sending troopers, $2.5M to Springfield — city facing surge of Haitian migrants

 

On Monday, Republican Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost also drew attention to the crisis when he directed his office to research legal avenues — including filing a lawsuit — to stop the federal government from sending “an unlimited number of migrants to Ohio communities.”

The attorney General of ohio makes reference to the news

 

Citizens testified to City Council. These people would be competent witnesses in court. Why does the media find a carefully worded City Hall press release better evidence?”

Yost is a 2020 presidential election Republican partisan. Take his credibility and objectivity for what it's worth.

 

"During his tenure as Attorney General, he supported attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, which was won by Joe Biden.

...

Attempt to invalidate 2020 presidential election results

After Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election, Yost filed a "friend-of-the-court" brief in support of the Trump campaign's attempt to invalidate ballots cast in Pennsylvania."

We did that one time for Thanksgiving.  Big mistake, well, eating the goose.  Nice for all the other geese, as it was an old 'bully' goose, and too dominating at the pond.   But, emphasis on 'old'.   Toughest old bird I've ever eaten ... no wonder I like munching on birds much younger  ...  😁
