South Shore, Chicago residents were outraged with the city’s plans to bring in illegal immigrants to their neighborhood.
The Chicago Mayor’s Office is making plans for housing up to 500 illegal immigrants at the old South Shore High School, but officials have not clarified for how long.
Many South Shore locals were opposed to the proposals because they believe it is unacceptable for the city to rush to help the migrants after disregarding the Black community’s concerns for so long, according to Block Club Chicago.
The Gateway Pundit reported Thursday that the residents criticized the release proposal and urged city officials to take action to halt the impending inflow during the council meeting earlier this week.
The elected officials could barely get a word in as residents expressed their anger over the plan.
People are concerned about crime and the fact that they weren’t consulted on the idea before it began to move forward.

During a protest, residents in South Shore voiced out that the arrival of illegal aliens into their community will diminish the black vote.
“Having over 500 people in our community would completely wipe out any interest we have,” said one angry resident. “Are you aware that there are immigrant advocates at state houses all over this country who are advocating for noncitizen voting in local elections? What if that happened here?”
“That would change the mindset of what we as a black community, need to thrive here in Chicago. That’s a concern of ours. This is much bigger than the mayor of Chicago or the Chicago Police Department. This is an effort to destroy our neighborhoods and silence our voices even further,” he added.

“Why would any leader put our black communities, already riddled with crime, at further risk by placing unvetted, nontaxpayers steps away from our seniors, our children, and our homes we’ve worked so hard on our own to secure?” he added.
“We are at war, people. Our communities are at war. They are violating our communities,” said another angry resident.
