Migrants at NYC’s Floyd Bennett Field are begging for money, food at furious locals’ doorsteps: ‘Invasion’

Migrants staying at the Big Apple’s controversial tent shelter at Floyd Bennett Field have started going door to door in nearby neighborhoods begging residents for cash, food and clothes, furious locals told The Post Friday.

David Fitzgerald, 62, said he has noticed an influx of asylum seeker families showing up on his doorstep in Brooklyn’s Marine Park neighborhood in recent weeks asking for spare change — sparking safety fears among some of his neighbors.

“There’s definitely an invasion of immigrants from Floyd Bennett Field in our neighborhood and I see them sitting outside stores … outside the mall and going around to all the houses in the neighborhood, knocking on the door looking for money,” the retiree said.

“I certainly sympathize with their situation, but to have people knocking at your door looking for food that don’t speak English, it’s annoying. I don’t like it. We have never had this before, ever,” he continued.

Back in the 1990s, we used to get Boy Scouts selling popcorn or fertilizer and Girl Scouts selling cookies, plus solicitors selling encyclopedias and magazines door to door. No more.

It seems it is starting to happen here.

I have been blown away by what is happening. Never in all my years did I ever even believe what is happening is happening. Not just here, but world wide.

I have a doomed fascination watching it.

Many are well aware of what is going on and at the same time try to carry on and pretend as though it isn’t, for a sense of normalcy, I guess.

We’ve got female, Non-Native American Indians standing at our intersections and Walmart parking lots panhandling for their “american dreams”.

It appears America is not living up to their expectations. They thought they would be greeted by people throwing money at them, they would move into a house furnished by grateful Americans, and grocery stores would not expect payment.

In America, almost no one conducts business by going door to door, with the exception of Mormons and Jehovah Witnesses.

Try contractors in Florida. Because we told the son of a contractor who was working on a house down the street that, despite his teenage insistence not to take no for an answer, we didn't need his father's services, he shattered our French terra cotta birdbath by throwing it on the ground before walking off the property. We didn't know about it until three days later.

“How do they like that sanctuary city/state now.”

The voting idiots probably liked it then just as much as when they didn’t vote on it. Politics is action on a local level. They’re sorta engaging the frontal lobe at present but it might be too late. Pass the cheese please...

Marxists have been using the term “engorge the lumpenproletariat” for decades in their own screeds.

btw - I looked once looked up the word “proletariate”. It comes from the Latin meaning “people who produce nothing but offspring”

As others have noted, the stupid bastards who live there voted for this an undoubtedly felt very good about themselves when New York became a sanctuary city and when the “right to shelter” law passed.

Per the article “ I certainly sympathize with their situation…” what “situation is it you sympathize with, genius? The situation that people who absolutely are not eligible for asylum under the law, and who know they’re not eligible, are rushing the border at more than 10K per day? What is it about that that inspires your sympathy?

Yes six are Republican. And I think the councilman for this district in Brooklyn is one of the six.

The title attempts to push the big lie. They are not migrants. Which is kind of like the incessant “our democracy” that indeed intelligent people are trying to kill.

The Great Replacement in action.

Exactly. The Dems did their best to see that the pain was confined to conservative areas but that was never going to last - Texas towns ran out of resources long before the Big Apple will. This will happen to Martha's Vineyard last, but it will happen.

Break-ins will happen to houses whose owners don't answer the door. Those whose owners do will be begged from, then threatened, and will find themselves undefended by unfunded police departments. All part of the plan. The end state of this is the banlieues of Paris and the favelas of Rio de Janeiro. A "fundamentally transformed" America.

Welcome to the democrat controlled turd world. We are now just a colony of South America. There will be nice parts of town where all the houses are gated with tall brick walls with razor wire or broken glass on top. The rest of the cities will be lawless favalas run by gangs. And where the Africans invade will be just like every African dump. We will not recover. There will never be the political will to deport these illegals. In 20 years their grappling hook babies will all start voting and their entire families will be brought in via chain migration. Everyone loses except the politicians and oligarchs.
