New York City is bound by a decades-old consent decree in a class-action lawsuit to provide shelter for the homeless near City Island.
Wake up and read all about Eric Leroy Adams the 110th mayor of New York City since January 1, 2022. Captain Adams was an officer in the New York City Transit Police and the New York City Police Department, then a Brooklyn politician. He should know better. @NYCMayor has announced the city will soon be opening humanitarian relief centers to support the hundreds of asylum seekers arriving in NYC daily.
To my Latino brothers and sisters: Let’s not stigmatize our fellow migrants. I am one and this great nation was built by immigrants. Keep in mind that Orchard Beach has a history of flooding, and the hurricane season has reportedly picked up momentum. The entire parking lot area is designated as a “special flood hazard area” on the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s flood map, and is entirely within the city’s “Zone 1” hurricane evacuation designation. But even a normal rainstorm could potentially be dangerous.
While reading from our online community members we learn that some folks are shocked, while others say there goes the neighborhood or are surprised saying, not in our backyard. Why not send them to Brooklyn? https://www.prospectpark.org/

Both clam diggers and muscle suckers should be aware of what happened in Ft. Smith Arkansas, while Bill Clinton was Governor. On June 1, the detainees rioted, destroying four barracks and fighting with State Police officers and National Guardsmen. 62 refugees were injured and 46 others were arrested. After the riots, the previously unsecured facility was turned into a prison, encircled with miles of concertina wire and 2,000 heavily-armed federal troops. Been there, done that.
Meanwhile, The U.S. attorney for SDNY, Damian Williams says toppers of AFL Construction, an NYC-based firm, were arrested on charges of wire fraud, aggravated identity theft, and money laundering. The individuals entered into contracts with the city government worth $12 million to provide services at homeless shelters
The Arkansas National Guard remembers Ft. Chaffee in the summer of 1980. That’s when Castro emptied his prisons and mixed convicts with refugees in the Mariel Boatlift. A summer of discontent and agitation that is LITERALLY.
Will we see a Winter of darkness and coldness, both of which are undesirable? with crime, lice, and riots?
