Wow that is so right we really need to think of our community - look at how bad Emporia is now with how many are here now - help our homeless, help our veterans - don't help people that are from another country - help our AMERICANS - look how many people are out of work here in this town - seriously how many of you out there want your wife or daughter raped and harrassed? I know I don't want my daughter to be in that situation. I have recently talked with individuals at Tyson and they say it is hell because of the Somali's - seriously you hear employees talking about it - students at ESU that wish they wouldn't have came here and that are leaving because of the samoli's walking around campus harassing them - if you want ESU and FHTC to grow you need to get them out of here now and not cause emporian's to loose more out of their pocket - my goodness I work my tail off to only have a little in my pocket each month because of city taxes, county taxes, sales and property taxes we don't need to pay more

On Group says info lacking on resettlement

t is amazing how the government of our community is forgetting about the individuals that have paid taxes for so many years here. I am afraid to walk in our community and have my daughter here with all the incidents that have happened since this group has been here. Take care of our own first - we don't have the resources to bring thousands or even hundreds of more people here to Emporia with so many companies going under and so many people without jobs - if this becomes the hub for another culture then the county should pay for our homes so we can get out of here. Seriously quit looking for free money and take care of our current problems first without adding more
