maybe you should mention the RESPONSABILITY of the Us in this situation. Their ongoing involvement in Haitian internat affairs . the déportation of Aristide to Republic of central Africa , the ' élection ' of the puppet , a former singer sweet ' clinton ' micky and finally the assasination of jovnel moise . but hey what do I know I am just a middle eastern that takes the time to get the REAL information unlike journalists . it all started by France applying a financial sanction for the slaves that took their liberty back , what a crime ! 21 billions in todays money , but the issue … are the gangs , of course . I was lucky enough to visit haiti in 95 , the day Aristide has been put back into power by the people who décide everything on this island , the us gouvernement . It is such a beautiful country and Haitian people are so strong , I hope one day they will kick the US out.
Haiti=the new Somalia
When is it NOT a humanatarian crisis over there???
Not our problem
Incredibly sad. And terrifying.

Now these ppl look like they would be real refugees unlike the ppl from central and south america
The WEF should end their policy on reducing Haiti's fossil fuel consumption.
Let's take the hate out of Hati ya'll.
😮😳
Bless their ❤
🙏🏽 to my ppl 🇭🇹
You guys think USA should accept everyone in their own country,no way even i was born in Haiti.usa has to deal with their own problem, homelessness, house crisis, drugs and gambling addiction,gun violence.stop blaming USA for everything,put the blame in the opposition, bourgeoisie and your corrupt leaders.
The United States needs to help them they have abused Haiti especially CIA
I hate to use the term “failed state” but…yeah. Best thing to do is for the rest of us to welcome the scared, hard-working people fleeing with open arms. All they want is a chance to live and work in peace and anyone in their right mind would flee all of this suffering.
As a Haitian living in America this breaks my heart but theirs nothing I can do about it
"gang violence" is a terrible term to describe what's going on in haiti
They don't have a government at the moment and almost no formal employment
All inner economy of haiti is informal meaning it's street venders and farmers exchanging either coins or produce
Theres literally no government there and the internationally recognized prime minister wasn't elected but was part of the government before it finally completely collapsed but even then he has nothing to govern. Haiti has no structure and they have local police chiefs and gang leaders calling the shots simultaneously in warring sections ; all are basically warlords
Gang violence is what Chicago has haiti is post apocalyptic
Honestly they already junked up the land, they cleared the trees , filled the rivers with trash and polluted the coasts along with overfished out of season so that fish are few in their coasts and because of the pollution supposedly some fish make them sick
They should all be repatriated to be honest and the land once empty given time to heal and the UN can organize some kind of clean up process
Naturally Africa would be the best place for them they'd fit right in
Every single day America enjoyed them. Self. Showing Haitian On TV.This is America entertainment show inhaiti On t v TV. The reason they keep doing that they enjoy doing that because we don't have a president. If we have somebody who stand up for us they will never Keep showing us on TV like this. Somebody kill a good president. If we're not gonna T help us leave Us alone please I'm never see the show other country like That somebody is obsessed of haiti
Praying for the people of Haiti. 🙏🏾🇭🇹
Someone I know who is a Haitian national who now lives here. He tried to open up a small business in Port-au-Prince with the idea of employing people and providing them with an honorable income. Unfortunately, that business did not last more than a couple of years before the gangs took over and got my friend arrested on false charges. I know for a fact that my friend is an honorable human being, which makes it all the more infuriating.
Haiti needs a miracle. I cannot even imagine how difficult it is to even get humanitarian help into the country if even a journalist can't drive anywhere. The only thing we can do is pray and donate.
Should they be taxed a fee for speaking French? I mean the French still need the money from the purchase of the country, so why insult them by speaking their language? Or is it so the French can understand their lies better?
sounds like your A typical democrat rule, sounds like America
USA ITS HAITI PROBLEM.
THEY TRY TO SHAME US BY SAYING WE EAT DIRT CLAY FOR FOOD, ITS JUST A BAD HABITS LIKE USA DOING COCAINE.
JUST LEAVE HAITI ALONE, THE LAST WE WILL BE THE FIRST.
Those gun came from USA to kill us.
This absolutely cracks my aching heart to see children suffer! If this is a place of generational poverty, we need locals to step up and break the cycle. With all the corruption, it seems impossible but we have to keep the faith and hold onto hope. 💕
This gangs doing nothing other than destroying their own country what a stupidity and ignorance
Gosh where is Sean Penn who all drunk cries about Haiti? Probably passed out somewhere.
Haiti is the epicenter of black culture and values. It shows what black people are capable of. It is a black paradise
wow! please God deliver all who are suffering in this world we are living please send help to the helpless,Our Farther please guide and protect the helpless in Jesus name I pray.
