Rural New York community faces migrant influx that could 'overwhelm' resources

A small western New York community is facing an influx of illegal immigrants some residents fear could overwhelm municipal resources and squeeze the budget as has been the case in New York City.

At least 35 migrants from Colombia are believed to have arrived in the city of Jamestown since late last year and a leading Hispanic advocate says more are on the way, the New York Post reported.

"The Colombians are already here and more are coming. What is the government going to do about it?" Chautauqua County Hispanic Community Council President Max Martin asked. "They need housing and transportation or be allowed to work and get a driver’s license."

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

But NYC is a sanctuary!  Doesn't he know the Statue of Liberty will shed tears if he turns away immigrants? :tongue2:

Give them unused summer homes and all other unoccupied dwellings.  Then put others in homes with spare bedrooms bedrooms and other excessive square footage.

Jamestown is about 360 miles north/west of New York City.
About as far away from there as one can get without being in Pennsylvania.
