Dem NJ Mayor: We Turned Away Migrant Bus Because It’s ‘Major Security Risk’ — Don’t Know If They’re Armed
Breitbart ^ | 01/02/2023 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 01/02/2024 8:20:02 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

While speaking to New York ABC affiliate WABC on Monday, Edison, New Jersey Mayor Sam Joshi (D) stated that he turned a bus full of migrants sent to the city back because local police “did not know if any of those 40 individuals were carrying weapons, they couldn’t be identified.” And this is “a major security risk. It’s a health risk. And we’re just not going to tolerate that.” Joshi, who plans to send migrants back to the border, also stated that he doesn’t want to pawn problems off on other mayors.

WABC New Jersey Reporter Toni Yates stated, “The town of Edison, however, has its own answer: A charter bus to send migrants back to the southern border. The bus that arrived the other night was simply ordered to leave.”

Didn’t anyone explain to him that these are just poor, oppressed, hard working people who are coming here to flee tyranny and seek a better life for themselves?

So Texas can send them back to Mexico because they “could be a security risk” and “might be armed” too then, huh mayor? We can count on your vote to build the wall then right?

Is Edison, NJ a sanctuary city? If so the mayor should accept the illegal aliens.

I guess they thought they and their cronies would be getting women and children they could use for nefarious purposes - not military-age men who intend to kill them. Funny what happens when you don’t inspect the premise carefully enough…

Unless it's at the Texas, New Mexico or Arizona border. Then it's...

Dems will never admit that they are hypocritical liars. They will have some lofty reason to make themselves sound like they are caring, even though they are actually hypocritical liars.

Drop them off at any suburban Amtrak or PATH station with a train ticket into Penn Station. How could anyone stop a mode transfer? And why bother taking chances with municipalities along the way?
