Illegals being housed at a tent shelter at Floyd Bennett Area in NYC are going door to door within the neighboring neighborhood begging for money, meals, and garments.
Residents are studying the exhausting approach what it means to be a sanctuary metropolis.
David Fitzgerald, 62, stated he has observed an inflow of asylum seeker households exhibiting up on his doorstep in Brooklyn’s Marine Park neighborhood in current weeks asking for spare change — sparking security fears amongst a few 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 stated.
“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.
One other resident shared his considerations over security saying, “I don’t feel safe. I’m paying a lot of taxes from my salary. And I’m completely transparent to the IRS and everything so I think it’s enough, what we are already paying for them to support if we call ourselves a sanctuary city.”
Requested if he had a message for New York Mayor Adams or Joe Biden, he stated, “Secure the border. That’s the only message.”

On Tuesday, Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa shared a video taken exterior of Floyd Bennett Area exhibiting the deteriorating circumstances of the tent metropolis and known as on town to step in.
Sliwa shared, “So here we are. We got the four tents behind us. You got all the migrants behind us, they won’t let us get any closer. And we’ve gone all through Marine Park in the area where all the illegal aliens are going.”
“And they’re begging. They’re going door to door.”
“They’re outside of Kings Plaza. They’re outside Walgreens, 7-11, Speed Way, begging, begging, begging. They can’t get enough back here.”
“They get food, clothes. We provide them with everything. We don’t even provide our own homeless and emotionally disturbed, our veterans.”
“So we have got to come up with a plan…and we are working on it so that by January 1st, we’re gonna force this issue. This begging has got to stop. They should not be permitted to beg. The city is not disciplining them.”
“There’s no structure there. No rules or regulations. And we’re gonna force the city to do their job. Stay tuned.”
