In Buffalo this man was dropped off at Tim Hortons on a cold night in February and left on his own. He wandered around the city and was found dead near the Buffalo Sabres arena a few days later. The Trump administration has made it socially acceptable to treat refugees, immigrants, and people of color like this. Help your neighbor, regardless of their background.

Police in New York state are investigating how a nearly blind refugee from Myanmar died after U.S. Border Patrol agents dropped him off at a doughnut shop in Buffalo.

More fear mongering from a town candidate today. Had something to do with socialists and New York City, foreign invaders…not much to do with Deerfield though. Smoke screen. 🐘
