Reply to comment by ThreeLittlePuigs in NYC Moving Tent City Built to Help Asylum Seekers From Bronx to Randall's Island by Sanlear
Trust me that wasn’t my intentions.
The point I was trying to make is, they’re pushing these asylum seekers further away, out of sight and out of mind.
The city uses Randall’s island as a means to satisfy the NIMBY’s. “Place them over there on that island, where we send everyone we don’t want in our neighborhood”

Funny part of poking fun of NIMBY is that once violent crime and/or property crime spikes no one wants derelicts, homeless, offenders or addicts in their neighborhood, I don’t care who they are.
And to be honest, if these places are not being actively monitored for criminal activity (and I don’t believe they ever are) then don’t put these places filled with people prone to crime in neighborhoods where families or seniors live.

And of course someone at the press conference in Orchard Beach brought up crime while there’s a van in the background with “make America great again” vinyl wrap. CBS News NY: Opposition to migrant relief center grows louder.
