Man Faces Death Threats for Praising His Haitian Workers

“For Jamie McGregor, a businessman in Springfield, Ohio, speaking favorably about the Haitian immigrants he employs has come to this: death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants,” the New York Times reports.

“To defend himself and his family, Mr. McGregor has had to violate his own vow to never own a gun.”

Said McGregor: “I have struggled with the fact that now we’re going to have firearms in our house — like, what the hell? And now we’re taking classes, we’re going to shooting ranges, we’re being fitted for handguns.”
