ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION will upend every community!!  Does everyone now see that slowly ILLEGALS are taking this country over -- on your taxpayer dime?  Remember Biden has brought in appx. 80,000,000 ILLEGALS, the population of seven states, -- so they've got to put them somewhere.

'It'll upend the community': PA town roiled by talk of migrant housing in Civil War-era orphanage building

A Pennsylvania community is up in arms over reports that as many as 1,000 migrants were to be and reportedly still could be housed in a Civil War-era orphanage most recently used as a summer camp facility.

The building, located in Scotland outside Gettysburg, is owned by a Lakewood, New Jersey-based LLC, but officials in Greene Township cited a letter from a representative for an Indiana-based disaster response organization, USA Up Star, seeking to use it to "provide shelter for refuge[e] families."

In an August letter to the USA Up Star staffer, Greene Township zoning officer Daniel Bachman wrote that its most recent use as a summer camp falls within its R-1 – or low-density residential – code and that higher-density shelter would not be permitted.

Bachman wrote that the company could appeal his ruling.

Fox News Digital reached out to USA Up Star for comment. On its website, it bills itself as a "service-disabled veteran-owned business incorporated in 2009 to provide best-in-class disaster, responder and warfighter support during disaster, contingency, surge, and displacement operations."

The organization last followed up with Bachman by noting they are working with the federal government on the matter and would like further zoning information from Greene Township, according to a letter obtained by Fox News Digital.

State Sen. Doug Mastriano, R-Gettysburg, the 2022 GOP nominee for governor who represents the area, said in a Friday interview he is extremely concerned about the goings-on with the partially decrepit Scotland property..............

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly; do not claim to be wiser than you are. Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

They really do want another civil war, don't they.  **nononono*

That has been my feeling for quite some time @mountaineer  perhaps though they are wrong.  I've often said ALL legal Americans, regardless of race or ethnicity need to stand together. ALL LEGAL Americans must stand together.  We must unite. That is the ONLY way IMO that we will keep or take back our Republic. 

As stated in the Declaration of Independence, some times it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another..... perhaps we are quickly approaching those times.

I would never advocate violence, nor would I ever advocate never defending person or property.

The question is whether we'll be punished for defending our property and families, if it comes to that.

J6 was a warning.

That's where IMHO the gov't FEMA camps that were rumored about comes in --- they will incarcerate those of us who resist.

Alex Jones, yes the supposed 'conspiracy theorist' had once posted a map of all the locations of the camps-- GA IIRC had the most.  As the conspiracy goes, when 'W' ordered military bases to be closed, they were turned into FEMA camps or better known as gulags. This invasion was planned long ago, but I never in my wildest dreams thought that the invasion would be of this magnitude.

Yes, I pray that I am absolutely wrong.  Things are not looking real promising right now as I am uncertain that we have any recourse at the ballot box anymore. Trump winning and a resolution to all this crappola happening would be a good scenario.  He's not a young man though and I'm still uncertain about trusting Vance, though I trust him much more than Walz or Harris.

I'm just pondering where - if I hadn't lost them in unfortunate boating accidents - I would be hiding my guns (the guns I used to own, a long long time ago, mind you) after a Harris inauguration.

Sigh.  I hear you.  Ours were lost thanks to hurricane Ian.

Small Pennsylvania town up in arms over plan to house hundreds of migrants in abandoned school
Story by Emily Crane • 16h


A small Pennsylvania town is up in arms over a proposal to turn an abandoned Civil War-era school into a shelter for hundreds of migrant families — with residents and lawmakers vowing to put a stop to the “foreign invasion.”

News of the plan to turn the former Scotland School for Veterans Children building in Franklin County into a migrant shelter surfaced publicly this week after the owners of the sprawling property recently started making inquiries about its potential usage, local officials said.
 
The Greene Township Board of Supervisors said a representative from USA Up Star, an Indiana-based disaster response company that currently owns the 185-acre property, had reached out to them last month to ask if local zoning laws allowed for the campus to be converted into a shelter.

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.

The government could start using the capital.  It isn't being used for anything worthwhile. :whistle:

Residents of Pennsylvania Town Outraged That Civil War-Era Orphanage Might be Used to House Migrants

A Civil War era orphanage in the Gettysburg area of Pennsylvania is being considered for use as housing for migrants and many residents are not happy about it.

This is so disrespectful to the people who live in this area and to our history as a country. We don’t have to do this and more people have to start reminding our leaders of that fact.

If it has gotten to the point where historic buildings are being considered for illegal border crossers, we have run out of room.
