Notice that Muslims are seeking "asylum" in Protestant New England ... ( similar to the earlier immigration of Irish Catholics into Mass. cities like protestant Boston) https://www.pressherald.com/2019/02/01/conservative-critics-target-portland-and-its-support-of-asylum-seekers/...
Immigration advocates say asylum seekers from sub-Saharan countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo and Angola are coming to Portland because the city has an established immigrant community and because it has
programs to help support asylum seekers while their applications are being processed by a strained immigration system. And, unlike most states,
Maine provides emergency financial assistance to asylum seekers through the General Assistance program that is funded by the state and communities such as Portland....
Most asylum seekers in Maine enter the country legally, either on a temporary visa or by presenting at a port of entry and declaring their intent to seek asylum. They often exhaust their financial resources, and sometimes endure a long and dangerous journey through South and Central America to get here. ,...

Rwaganje and other immigrants to Maine said they are listening closely to what the four candidates hoping to replace Gov. Paul LePage are saying when it comes to the state?s newest residents ? such as
how much state aid they should be afforded and what policies they might advance to support immigrant communities.Rwaganje, who fled the Democratic Republic of the Congo more than 22 years ago and sought asylum in Maine, is now a naturalized U.S. citizen. He has been

As a budget deal in Augusta eliminates public assistance for legal non-citizens who took refuge in Maine, the city must decide if its property taxpayers will foot the bill. Claude Rwaganje, who fled the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1996 and now helps refugee families in Maine, has been fielding many phone calls from asylum seekers asking him what will happen to General Assistance. ?They are afraid,? he said.
The Maine Legislature decided early Wednesday as part of a
budget compromise to eliminate public assistance for immigrants who are seeking asylum and, in many cases, not allowed to work. The decision raised many unanswered questions about what will become of
Maine?s roughly 1,000 asylum seekers, the vas
t majority of whom live in Portland.Portland officials and advocates for immigrants said they still hold out hope that the Legislature will pass a separate bill to make asylum seekers eligible for public assistance. But the odds appeared long that such a bill could win the two-thirds support of lawmakers needed to override an inevitable veto by the governor.

Of course, most Americans saw no mention of this horrific case by the mainstream media, and it?s all because of one infuriating reason.

Disturbingly,
ethnically homogeneous migrant communities have begun festering in the U.S., in which
Sharia law is freely being enforced as local authorities turn a blind eye out of fear of political correctness. Just as we?ve predicted, it has once again resulted in the brutal murder of an American citizen. However, the most sinister aspect of the savage homicide is the behavior of the mainstream media.
The media, which once upheld its moral duty to report the unsavory truth, has officially buried a serious national story concerning a probable hate crime murder because the killers are Somali Muslim asylum seekers. In fact, even the local outlets that have covered the horrific case have blatantly omitted any mention of the perpetrators? race or migrant status, referring to the mob of Muslim murderers as ?teens.?
According to the Lewiston Sun Journal, 38-year-old Donald Giusti died on Friday evening after he was attacked and beaten by a mob of 30 to 40 ?people? (Somali migrants) in Lewiston?s Kennedy Park. Giusti was
smashed in the head with migrants wielding sticks, bats, pipes, and bricks after Somali teens in a car reportedly drove past and shot pellets and BB guns at the victim and several companions.Absurdly,
even the police were cautious in their description of the murderers, hinting at the suspects? Somali migrant background by referring to their ?different ethnic origins? when asked by the media if race played a part in the homicide.
