Celebrate diversity.
In New York, they're getting diversity of morals all right, and lots of migrant cultural enrichment, too, while we're at it.
According to the New York Post, which did some authentic street reporting on the impact of 2,000 illegal migrants in Brooklyn's Floyd Bennett Field:
Since mid-November, new lawlessness has plagued the area, with shoplifting, panhandling, gutter scams, and, according to some, signs of street prostitution.
And the once-serene, federally-run site — a historic former airfield off Flatbush Avenue near the Marine Parkway Bridge — has itself become an eyesore, where vicious brawls and pot-puffing are common, those living there said.
“This sh-t is out of control,” said a 20-year veteran NYPD cop when asked about the migrants at Floyd Bennett Field, a fraction of the 164,000 illegal border crossers bused to New York since spring 2022 — and 68,000 currently in the city’s care.
“That’s all these people do is rob and steal. They should feel lucky that they’re here, but they’re out there committing crimes. We don’t know anything about them. We don’t know what they’ve done in these other countries.”
They found hard police data to support the sentiment they found from the angry locals:
NYPD records from Nov. 27 through Jan. 7 show upticks in car thefts (37.5%), robberies (29.4%), and petit larceny (8.2%) in the 63rd Precinct, which covers the neighborhoods near Floyd Bennett Field, compared to the same period a year earlier.
It's important to note that high as those figures are, they are very likely underreported, as nothing is being done to stop migrant crime.
The kind of migrant crime coming in is pretty spectacular, of the kind that you see in the hillside shantytowns of Caracas or Medellin.

The Post reported prostitution among migrants selling flowers, scams to extort money from New Yorkers by having one migrant run into traffic to get lightly hit by a passing car with his buddies in the back filming the incident on their cell phone cameras after which the migrant demands a $500 payout in order to avoid being taken to court.
“Migrants turn New York into a crime pit”
How can you tell?
I guess Trump was right.... again.
“another SCAM to be wary about when you’re driving through NYC...”
I wouldn’t go there to throw up
RE: How can you tell?
By comparing what life was in NYC from 1994 to 2014 to what we are seeing now.
It’s not the Migrants causing all the crime folks.
It’s locals destroying their own neighborhoods.
Stupid. Violent. Envious. No impulse control.
The list goes on.
But immigration does not really impact people: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4210611/posts (Pritzker)
Meanwhile the resident at the White House has nothing on his schedule for today.
His attorney threatens a federal lawsuit if charges aren't dropped; says the Guatemalan's
<>“constitutional rights” have been violated
<>he is the victim of police brutality
<>as well as racial profiling.
A foreign citizen does not have “Constitutional rights”.
Tell that to his American lawyer.........a latino.
This is the next step- from last month:
Migrants at NYC’s Floyd Bennett Field are begging for money, food at furious locals’ doorsteps: ‘Invasion’

It's a deeper crime pit...
I wouldn’t go there to throw up
I am actually searching for a new job. Got invitations to apply for a few extremely well paying ones in LA and NYC. Also Chicago. I simply declined.
Re LA: NEVER AGAIN.
There. Fixed.
later
“Got invitations to apply for a few extremely well paying ones in LA and NYC. Also Chicago”
They have to make it lucrative.....because they are all obviously crapholes......not to mention it’s stupid expensive just to live in those crapholes.
I see license plates from all 3 of those states in my town on a regular basis......on one hand it ticks me off that they’re here....on the other hand I don’t blame “em for escaping the aforementioned crapholes.
What’s wrong with Texas?🤷
My mistake if it somehow looked like I had anything against Texas. In fact even though I had to leave Texas (long story), I'm still a Texan at heart. I love Texas. If I got a job offer there, I'd move back in 0.001 seconds.
