  21. Haiti in the fifties was a beautiful country. It was known as the Pearl of the Antilles.A big tourists destination. I believe VODOO has alot to do with it and corruption in the government.

  22. All that Clinton money to help? Wait all lies

  29. They're headed for our Southern border or already here wake up

  30. The law is not strict enough to prevent violence.

  31. Never changes..? Pray all you want it will never change, Haiti will never move forward..

  32. Breaking news . House just passed a bill to take away AR-15, several handguns , from Americans .

    Bad or good news ? You won't really know until the crime hits your neighborhoods !!! And when gov starts putting people into CAMPS .

  36. Cartels set them up in established gangs in every American city. Repayments for the smuggling have turned our cities into violent slums. Everyday there are shootings. close the border..why is it even open?

  37. And yet we give Billions to Ukraine and nothing for these people.

  38. Half struggling to get food. That's worse than sad

  39. I'd like to know how so many assault weapons made their way to a small island nation.
