The Melnea Cass Recreational Center in Roxbury, Massachusetts — a mostly black neighborhood of “sanctuary city” Boston — has been converted into a temporary shelter for illegals, through May 31.

Democratic Gov. Maura Healey defended the decision, saying, “We really don’t have a choice.”

“As you know, families continue to come into this country, continue to come into Massachusetts. … We are here because we need to make sure we have a place for people to go safely,” she said during a news conference on the subject, according to the Boston Herald.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu — a fellow Democrat — concurred with Healey’s decision, saying, “Their families are the same, their stories are the same as ours. People who just want to give their kids a chance at a better life, and we are a little bit stuck in a system where the federal machinery needs a lot of fixing.”

Those folks losing the use of the Cass rec center, however, did not share this same rosy view. According to the Herald, several residents gathered for a protest outside the center, with signs reading “Shame on Wu” and “Boston is Full,” among others.

One man present shouted, “It’s a [expletive] money grab. You don’t give a [expletive] about [those] born and raised here.”
