“What it is like living in an area where the
major city is about 25 percent (or more) refugee, mainly Muslim.”
WASHINGTON – In a post that
quickly went viral, blogger Loretta the Prole outlined how a flood of Muslim
refugees changed the face of her hometown of Utica, New York, forever.
The piece, titled “My Hometown is Gone,” was written in response
to the recent increase in refugee numbers and was designed to “convey what it
is like living in an Islamizing area,” according to Loretta.
“I’m from the Utica, N.Y., area. Utica is the city nicknamed by
the UN ‘the city that loves refugees!’ Soon every American city will be a city
that loves refugees! Get ready!” the piece begins sarcastically.
“So I would like to tell you what it is like living in an area
where the major city is about 25 percent (or more) refugee, mainly Muslim.”
The first thing Loretta noticed under increasing Islamization
during the Obama era was the conversion of an old Methodist church into a
mosque. The next was that Muslim immigrants were increasingly put in local
positions of bureaucratic power.
“So let me just summarize: the social worker at the school is
Muslim, the administrator who ok’s homeschooling is Muslim, the CPS worker is
Muslim, the nurse practitioner at the ER is Muslim, the doctor at the ER is
Muslim. These are positions of authority that wield a lot of power,” Loretta
notes.
The next development was far more alarming.
“In 2015, a 26-year-old Bosnian refugee in Utica was arrested
for supporting ISIS,” Loretta writes. “I went to a couple Trump rallies and
meetings in upstate N.Y. before we moved [to North Carolina]. When I mentioned
the arrest of this ISIS supporter to a local businessman at one of the
meetings, he got a very serious look and said Utica was full of ISIS and the
local police were really worried.”
As the post-industrial economy of upstate New York continued to
collapse, Loretta’s husband lost his job. Attempting to find temporary relief
through food stamps, Loretta went to the local Department of Social Services.
What she found there was a Kafkaesque bureaucratic nightmare:
Even though her family had no income and four children, her application for
food stamps was rejected several times.
“Want to know why my application was rejected several times even
though we qualified?” Loretta asks. “The Department of Social Services in my
area is swamped because of the refugees. 25 percent of the city are refugees.
Virtually all of the refugees are on welfare. And when they apply for welfare,
they don’t do so as an independent entity, as I did. They go through their
refugee resettlement agency who deals with the Department of Social Services
for them. So basically Americans get the short shrift, and refugees get taken
care of.”
Not only do refugees get preferential treatment over American
citizens, but they bring disease as well. Loretta cited a WND article relaying
the re-emergence of TB in Utica.
“This is why so many Democrats voted for Trump. Americans are
getting squeezed out by non-Americans at multiple levels,” she believes. The
county where Utica is located is historically a Democrat county, but it went
for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election.
“Americans can see that they are being forced to accommodate
non-Americans to their own detriment and expense,” Loretta states.
In response to the article, Loretta has received harassing
messages and even death threats from Muslims and non-Muslims alike, leading her
to call the police.
But she refuses to back down.
“I shouldn’t have said anything. But Trump is just letting this
happen – same as Obama – and I see where this is going [and] what the stakes
are,” she tweeted Sunday.
In an interview with WND, Pamela Geller, editor-in-chief of the
Geller Report and president of the American Freedom Defense Initiative,
said Trump “has tried to stop this from happening but has been repeatedly
blocked by leftist activist courts that are bent on globalization, the
destruction of borders, and the destruction of the nation-state.”
“They are bent on keeping America on a path that will only bring
civil strife and bloodshed on a massive scale – and sooner than anyone
expects,” Geller said.
