Boston had minimal diversity to begin with, so calling it a sanctuary city was always a reach. |
If your standard for quality of life is not getting robbed/raped or murdered, you've got some issues. |
Breaking news: federal government does their own job, expects praise. |
That was always the job of the Feds. Now, they’re finding a way to do it since some states and cities aren’t interested in being forced to do their job for them. I know the Constitution is a boring read, but it’s ridiculous that the average American doesn’t seem to understand what’s a fed power vs a state power. There is a whole world of information accessible to us, and it has only made people dumber. |

Apart from blue vs red, what? |
DP... my standard in addition to not getting robbed or murdered is livability, a city that has a lot to offer, like music and the arts, museums, good mass transit system and so on, That's all stuff that most red cities suck at. |
If only they could be like New York City, right? |
Diversity |
New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts all have large immigrant populations. Texas and California have borders easy for South Americans to cross so their problem is way too many crossing and staying . Massachusetts has immigrants from Brazil mostly, then El Salvador, Guatemala, India and China. Vermont borders Canada and about 5% of their population of immigrants are not documented. Considering hardly anyone lives in Vermont, that’s a lot. They come from Canada, Nepal, Jamaica, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Connecticut, a small country, has about 100,000 undocumented immigrants. |
Neither does the president or puppy killer and head of Homeland Security, Kristi with an I. She could not define Habeas Corpus correctly, something that would be a given for anyone in her position before Trump. |
This is why Kamala lost. The left keeps selling voters things they don't want. The number of people who want the US to host foreign criminals is vanishingly small. Basically no one except far left activists sees "we must allow criminals into the country and then house them in our prisons" as a top priority, much less as remotely desirable. |
Grandma, did you get a new AOL CD-ROM in the mail? |
Not everyone is ready to live and compete in a place like NYC. It’s too hard for maga scared cats. |
Aw, cute. Boston isn’t a real city and your train system is a total mess. My daughter can’t complain enough about the red line. |
