What the Afghan imports bring us
2021-10-19
[Breitbart] Domestic abuse has become such an issue among Afghans brought to the United States and temporarily living at various U.S. military bases, that "gender and protection advisors" are being deployed to help with the problem.

As part of President Joe Biden’s massive resettlement operation, about 53,000 Afghans are currently temporarily living on eight military bases in Wisconsin, New Jersey, Texas, Indiana, New Mexico, and Virginia, while thousands more are being flown to the U.S. daily.

Fort McCoy in Monroe County, Wisconsin, housing the most Afghans, is struggling so much with domestic abuse among the population that the U.S. military is deploying "gender and protection advisors" to alleviate the issue, according to the La Crosse Tribue:

The U.S. military has sent "gender and protection advisors" to Fort McCoy to handle domestic abuse, child care emergencies and the upcoming winter for the thousands of Afghan refugees still housed at the army base.
[Emphasis added]

...

"Every day there’s calls for domestic violence, mediation, trying to get victims to a safe place, coordination with law enforcement such as the FBI, the military police, and other agencies, child abuse, nutrition, and marriage," [the chief gender advisor for the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, Sharon] Feist said.

#2  ...the record is usually the second generation, but the parents pushed that because they believed in the potential for upward mobility through adaptation.

#1  The "melting pot" was a pretty good idea. You are welcome to come to America legally, BUT you MUST adopt our cultural norms. Period.
