I found this article, about a town not to far from the town I went to college in, a place where there are supposedly a lot of practicing Christians…
From Daily Southtown: Residents oppose shelter for immigrant children
The children rarely leave the federal immigrant shelter, a former nursing home near the city’s lakefront that houses undocumented children found alone in the United States.
Teachers and doctors are brought to them. And aside from occasional field trips or visits to a nearby park, the children spend almost all their time indoors — although it may be months before they know whether they will be deported or allowed to stay.
But plans to provide more room by converting a 2.5-acre estate near Naperville — with an 11,000-square-foot house, tennis court and swimming pool — into a first-of-its-kind shelter for undocumented Indian and Chinese children hit a snag:
Neighbors in wealthy Lisle Township don’t want them.
They say the shelter, which would house as many as 30 children, could create traffic problems, lower property values and strain water and sewer services.
But some also worry that the children could escape and pose a threat to their own children. A flier circulated throughout the neighborhood said the shelter would be “WORSE than a halfway house!”
