LOGANSPORT, Indiana — Thousands of migrants from Haiti and dozens of other countries have arrived in this isolated Indiana city of 18,000 in just a few years.Furious residents say they no longer feel safe in the once-sleepy downtown, and their kids are being muscled out of the schools by new students who don’t know English and need a lot of help.They blame Vice President Kamala Harris and President Biden.“Do something. Our community cannot withstand this many people being here,” Candice Espinoza, 32, a local photographer, told The Post when asked what her message would be to the Democratic presidential candidate.Nancy Baker, 44, a mother of two, was more blunt about what she would tell Harris: “Get off my property.”“I don’t see how she can stand behind Biden the whole time and she keeps deflecting anytime they ask questions.” It’s not entirely clear how many migrants have arrived in Logansport — but Cass County Health Department Administrator Serenity Alter told The Post that the surrounding area’s population has surged nearly 30%.That would put the arriving number of migrants at more than 11,000 — in a county that had just 38,000 people in 2020.Another rough estimate, from Logansport Mayor Chris Martin, pegs the number of arrivals from the impoverished Caribbean country at 2,000 to 3,000 over the last four years.What’s clear is that the number of Haitian immigrant students in the Logansport schools has increased 15-fold, from 14 in 2021 to 207 this year.Baker said her 16-year-old daughter, Cheyanne, dropped out of the local high school because teachers seemingly had no time for the English-speaking pupils anymore.“There were way too many kids and it seemed to her that since they didn’t speak the language, or didn’t understand what was going on, they were getting more attention,” Baker said.

The teachers simply don't have time to teach the American citizens anymore. With the flood Haitians , they are occupying the school's time and efforts. Most of them can't speak English. This is is ridiculous. Some kids are dropping out of high school because the teachers don't have the time for them anymore. So they are either being home schooled or going online. 

Will dimocrats stop at nothing to win? They can't win unless they cheat. They are even proud of cheating. They love it.
