After a string of recent events of 'alleged hate crime shootings at Indians in the United States (US), the discovery of an anti-immigration website that features photos and a video of Indian families relaxing in the city of Columbus, Ohio, has become a cause for concern in the US.

A video called ‘Welcome to Columbus Ohio suburbs - Lets take a walk to Indian park’, on the website SaveAmericanITJobs.com, shows Indian families enjoying the day at a public park in Ohio. The description of the video mentions that wealthy Indian families moving into suburban homes in Ohio as "displacement of Americans has occurred".

Buzzfeed reported the website's creator is a 66-year-old Steve Pushor, a computer programmer from Virginia.

In the video, people are playing volleyball, children are playing on the swing sets, while you can hear Pushor narrate: "The number of people from foreign countries blows my mind out here. You see this whole area is all Indian, amazing. It’s an amazing number of jobs have been taken away from Americans. The Indian crowd has ravished the Midwest. It’s a takeover." He describes the park with Indians as a “mini Mumbai”.

Hindustan Times reported the video was accompanied with a document called ' ‘Ohio - A Journey To Indian Park’, which the labels India  a “hell hole”. The link to the document now directs to 403-error page.

US President Donald Trump's anti-immigration rhetoric and the recent shooting of Indians, Srinivas Kuchibhotla, Alok Madasani, Deep Rai, and Harnish Patel have caused the video to crop up all over social media.

 “Public enemies” of American IT professionals are the "Indian IT mafia”, according to SaveAmericanITJobs.org. 

“The Indian IT Mafia Mega firms have greatly harmed the American Information Technology Workforce for decades. Their notorious practises and collaborations with greedy US Corporations have resulted in USA IT professionals training their H-1B or L-1 Indian replacements in order to receive severance pay. This is outrageous,” it states on the website.

The video on Youtube has been viewed 46,720 times.
