Migrants are Begging in Brooklyn Neighborhoods That Voted for Trump, Sparking Hostility and Help

Families staying at the Floyd Bennett Field shelter at the edge of Brooklyn are showing up at homes four miles away in the Marine Park neighborhood, seeking food, clothes and funds — spurring both online vitriol and real-world help.

Residents are sharing anecdotes and images on Nextdoor and Facebook groups, describing migrant families begging for change near the Kings Plaza Mall, the nearest commercial hub to the shelter, where city buses drop off and pick migrants up. Other residents have described them going door-to-door on residential streets asking for clothing, food or money.

Some, like David Fitzgerald, 62, an Irish immigrant who’s lived for the past two decades in Marine Park, are outraged. He said groups of families had knocked on his door several times over the past few weeks.

okay, I didn't even know there were people in Brooklyn that voted for Trump but with that dimwit mayor in charge, maybe they should move to Florida and leave the place to the illegals.

all according to the Operation Overlord battle plan.

Merely complaining won’t stop this because the government does not care about you OR those people.

The question will finally be “What are we going to do about it”?

keep the busses rolling.

After they panhandle you at your house for food to eat guess what? Next they’re gonna be asking to come inside to use your bathroom. Otherwise they’ll just use the lawn.

How about back to whatever (fill in your favorite descriptive) __________
country they came from.

Looks like the same crew who drove to our neighborhood in the California Bay Area for Trick or Treating. They knew where the good candy was. Some things never change.

Did these people really think they were headed to the Seven Cities of Cibola when they left their birthplaces?

Eventually that begging is going to turn into taking.
Bet on it.

The poor fools who stayed in the remaining white, non-elite and non-Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods still extant in New York City did not anticipate the rapid deterioration in their city after the departure of Rudy Giuliani or Michael Bloomberg (a liberal who had enough common sense to maintain most of Giuliani's policing methods). There is little reason not to think that most large American cities will be economically moribund in the near future. In the cases of Minneapolis, Seattle, ad Portland, that future is the present.

hopefully a whole lot of politicians will get caught in the crossfire

If we don’t give them anything they will leave.

Sorry these people came to the United States are then surprised that it’s cold in winter, but that’s how it is.

They lived without us before so they can do so now.

I don’t believe it. The feds are pi$$ing hundreds of millions away on them in benefits. Heaven help Trump if he loses Brooklyn after being so close to winning New York in ‘16 and ‘20 (sarc.).
