On Tuesday’s broadcast of NPR’s “Morning Edition,” Aspen Public Radio Reporter Halle Zander reported on the town of Carbondale, Colorado, where a surge of migrants has overwhelmed local resources and forced migrants to sleep outside as temperatures drop.
Zander reported on a migrant from Venezuela who went to Carbondale and “joined a group of about 125 migrants, mostly from Venezuela, who were living under a bridge at the entrance to the small town. She’s hopeful she can find stable housing nearby with her girlfriend and her girlfriend’s kids.” But “Carbondale doesn’t have many services to support unhoused people.

They could always go back to where they came from.
How many Americans would go roaming off to another country without funds and expect that country to feed clothe and provide them shelter. Especially a country that is known to get cold .

Maybe we should just shut down the hotel business, make all hotels free migrant housing and hire more government employees to clean and maintain them and cater all of their meals. That's the ticket!

Compile a list of everyone in town who voted for Biden.
Give their home addresses to the illegals and suggest they ask for asylum.

When they get cold enough and hungry enough, they'll move onto the next town like a swarm of locusts and strip it bare, too. Then the next town after that.

Perhaps we could hand out leaflets to the illegals with a welcome to winter message. Coming from a country that's on the equator where winter temps reach the mid-seventies for lows, and now experiencing real winter temps with snow might just give these people the motivation to turn around and head south.

Welcome to America. Now prepare to die.
Sorry, illegal invader, my "give a damn" meter is stuck at zero.

They should have gone to California - or stayed in Venezuela.

I hear it's warm in Venezuela . . . maybe they should have stayed, if keeping warm is their main gripe. My care meter is at zero, sorry!

The illegals come here expecting to be taken care of. That’s what the cartels told them. Being stuck in a tent in a cold weather state was not the plan. Offer them the choice of an extra blanket or a ride home.

Gee, perhaps they should move SOUTH, back to their own countries. If they move here, have no way to live and die of exposure.
Well, OK. Life is all about choices. Coming here illegally was a bad choice. If they suffer bad consequences, not my problem.
Offer them a free ride to the Mexican border.

I don’t give a flying you know what about these “migrants” freezing. What I do care about is all of the homeless American veterans who face the same fate. How about we put them up in the fancy hotels instead?

Venezuela is an oil rich country. Go back there, kick out the commies and turn it into an economic powerhouse.

The ignorance of these "migrants" AKA illegals is breathtaking and deadly. Carbondale's elevation is over 6,000 feet.
The Colorado mountains are high and very cold in the winter. Even in summer, Denver can get cold at night because the Front Range is at least a mile up. Last July 4th, my guests and I sat around a roaring fire wearing jackets and watching fireworks. Everyone who lives here knows to keep coats, hats and gloves handy year round.

We know this cannot be a problem because the UN has kept us up to date on globull warming and we know the threat homeless migrants in Colorado really face is sea level rising and drowning them.

Guess Biden forgot to tell them that most sanctuary states/cities, are in cold country. Maybe if the freeze for awhile, they'll "self-deport."

If these illegal immigrants (or putatively "Catholic" charities relocating them) have put themselves in a place that's too cold, that's kind of TS. Cut off their Xiden subsidies, and they might self-deport in great numbers.

I don't give a frozen popsicle about illegal aliens. Especially the ones who feel entitled to everything hard working taxpayers like me provide for our fellow AMERICANS in need of assistance. I will as a public service announcement say this to them. Attention Illegal aliens who wound up in Colorado this is your geography lesson for the day. That state is high up in the Rocky Mountains. That's one of three major mountain ranges that run through our fruited pain. As such the winters are bitterly cold. My advice head south back where you came from and stay there.

So, they expect to live here on our dime instead of staying and helping to fix the problems in their own countries. Then they wonder why we don't feel obligated to give them free handouts when they violated federal laws just by jumping the fence. Sorry, I find it hard to care in this case.

They should have headed south - it's summertime south of the equator. Argentina and Brazil have cultures that would be easier to adapt to than the western US.

As Milton Friedman said in the 60s, you can't have open-borders and a welfare state. You'll go bankrupt. He didn't even touch on the fact the fedgov isn't constitutionally authorized to steal money from taxpayers to give to others.

Typical National Propaganda Radio, abusing the language to their advantage.... as usual.
These are not 'migrants'. They are ILLEGAL ALEINS.
Got that, NPR?
ILLEGAL ALEINS!
