The Border is Closed to Haitians. Haitians camping in Texas are being flown back to their native island in one of the largest refugee expulsions the country has seen in decades. More than 3,000 people have already been removed from the Del Rio camp to planes or detention centers, and the border patrol says the remaining 12,600 migrants should be gone by the end of the week. The Boston-area Haitian community is calling the deportations “heartless.” Do you agree?
