The local residents are pretty upset over this. How many have voted for Democrats and supported making NYC a sanctuary city?
Neighbors can’t help but talk about this fight club.
The residents of a Queens apartment building say they’ve hardly had a moment’s peace since January when a 128-room hotel in Long Island City was transformed into a city-run migrant shelter.
Children living in the seven-story building loiter outside the front entrance in large, unsupervised groups practically every evening, claim residents next door at 911 44th Drive. From 8 p.m. until well past midnight, the kids fight and chase each other around, shouting, screaming — and disrupting neighbors’ sleep.
“I’ve seen the kids squaring off like its ‘Fight Club,’ and I’ve seen them choking each other,” said another resident. “Sometimes, the guards will come out and break it up. But I’ve also seen them do nothing.
Videos provided to The Post show the teens screaming and fighting outside the shelter’s main door, sometimes with the shelter’s security guards watching and egging them on.
Shouldn’t the Democrats be celebrating the diversity? Otherwise, to use their own language, they’re being racist.
“Because of the way the children scream and shriek, it pierces through everything,” said one a neighbor who has lived in the building since 2011, and asked to remain anonymous, fearing retaliation. “Since around April, I would say it has been a nightly occurrence.”
“I have nothing against migrants, but to have to listen to this every night, unable to sleep, it’s becoming unbearable,” he continued.
It truly stinks when you are forced to confront the consequences of your votes and beliefs, eh?
A Department of Social Services spokesperson would not even confirm the former hotel is now a shelter, “to safeguard the privacy of vulnerable New Yorkers” and “social services beneficiaries residing at these locations.”
Added the irate neighbor: “I don’t care who you are or where you come from, but be a good neighbor. It is really not more complicated than wanting to be able to sleep a reasonable amount of time.”
If you import the third world you get the third world. Enjoy!
