of the department of homeland security in a press conference on friday, isa, basically say the united states government in making the decision to deport the people made the determination haiti has the capacity to accept all of these hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people that it is deporting back to haiti. that struck us because my team and i spent weeks reporting in haiti in july, august first after the presidential assassination on july 7th and after an earthquake that struck there on august 14th. to us this does not appear to be a country that is ready for an influx of people who have lived there for years. you have poverty. a major issue. gang violence is as bad as it has ever been. then you add in the earthquake which displaced thousands and thousands of people already because so many buildings collapsed. so many people in haiti don't have any place to go and now you're adding hundreds and hundreds of people to that mix.
