BROOKLINE - With state shelters at capacity and images of migrant families sleeping at Logan Airport, the Stokes family said they knew they had the means and wanted to step up.
"The family is lovely. They are so appreciative. It has been wonderful," said Jessica Stokes.
When Colin and Jessica Stokes called the state to sign up to be a host family, it took less than an hour for the displaced migrants to be dropped off at their door.

How are they helping? This family might encourage others to do the same. Which in turn encourages more illegals.
This "click and we will drop off a surprise package" approach is so different. Just like a wrapped present at Christmas.
Is the commitment to house and feed the new company a permanent agreement, or does the liability last until the bright lights are turned off and the camera goes someplace else?
This family reminds me of Ed and Lois Smart. They too were kind loving people who invited a homeless man into their home.
That same homeless man who kidnapped and raped their daughter for 10 months.

Good point.
You do?
That’s the whole idea. This family is guilting other families in the area to take in illegals while I don’t believe they themselves took in any.
"Harboring unauthorized aliens under subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(iii) makes it a crime to harbor, shield, or conceal an unauthorized alien knowingly. Harboring includes providing shelter or other assistance (financial, food, etc.)."
A crazy prediction - there will be a capital crime committed before this is all over.
It's called "equity." In all things (jobs, wealth, property ownership), those "left behind" must be raised to the same level as the "privileged."
Virtue signaling at its most sickening. And it worked they got their name in the papers thus enabling all those who know them to see how generous and charitable they are (which is the point of it anyway)
From LinkedIn (I stopped trying to count the libtard buzzwords and phrases):
Colin Stokes:
"I use communications strategies to make social change—in organizations, in media, and in our own families. Elevating the voices of diverse people, and applying my own, I use the principles and tools of storytelling to fight inequity and build a more just society.
I am available for freelance and contract writing, editing, design, and coaching projects.
I am also a public speaker and blogger on popular culture, parenting, and being a straight white male. My TEDxBeaconStreet talks have been viewed more than 2.5 million times, including in high school and college classrooms around the world. I have spoken and facilitated dialogues in community centers, prep schools, and Walt Disney Animation Studios. I worked with LeanIn.org and Girl Scouts of America's "Ban Bossy" campaign to adapt the talk "How Movies Teach Manhood" into a family toolkit for starting discussions of gender bias in media with kids.
My first career was as a stage actor, specializing in musicals and Shakespeare. My background is in graphic design, Star Wars trivia, and white privilege.

It’s illegal.
And what is the difference between a coyote getting paid to bring in illegals and this family?

Wait, what? He really has that on his Linkedin? I guess it fits since his white privilege has given him the opportunity to share his home with illegals.
Nice of them, but I would not do it. I would be afraid of being murdered in my bed.
It was when Pinochet was in charge.

I don’t understand how they think they will get rid of them.
