Settle your own problems.

No. Not just no, but HELL NO. No reason to sacrifice the lives of American servicemen and women, let alone US taxpayer dollars. Haiti is it's own nation, their problem.

Terrible situation in Haiti, but it does not concern the US, so I'm against sending US troops to serve and die there.

Why don't we send Haiti our illegals then? All we hear about is what great people they are and how much they contribute-maybe they can contribute to Haiti...

We shouldn't be the police of Haiti. They need to handle their own mess. We have the leftists destroying our country and have our hands full with them destroying everything here.

Let Russia or someone else step in.

Some of our "illegals" are from Haiti.

If we are going to send anyone, how about our urban ghetto dwellers? They contribute nothing but murder and mayhem and will fit right in.

Yes, hundreds of their children have disappeared so they need more for the sex traffic supply chain.

Maybe they can create housing for them, like they did with Cabrini Greens and Robert Taylor homes

1. Haiti was a French colony, hence the reason they speak French.

2. Slavery was a dying breed and Haitians would not be slaves in 2021. Colonization without slavery was very widespread (see Hong Kong under British rule).

3. Singapore and Hong Kong would not be what is is today without British colonization.

4. African countries are not “more developed” today and rank dead last on every single world ranking, hence the reason why many leave their countries known as brain drain.

5. Not even the Dominican Republic respects Haiti.

6. The lottery winners of the African diaspora, African Americans, will not be mass migrating to Haiti or African countries anytime soon and for very good reason. They’re failed states.

7. Haiti (and other African countries) thought they could build a Wakanda and they failed horribly. From slavery of colonization to slavery of a failed state and endless civil unrest, there is no difference. But hey, at least the white folks are gone!

8. The fact that Haiti is asking for US assistance to back their next dictator, after blaming the “DEA” and requiring their First Lady to seek healthcare in America, is all the evidence you need to know about the “progress” Haiti has made during their independence.
