Furious residents of smart Bronx neighborhood slam Mayor Eric Adams' plan to house 1,000 illegal immigrants in TENTS close to idyllic beach and upmarket country club
2022-09-24
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Eric Adams revealed plans to open two refugee-style camps for the thousands of incoming migrants

  • One of the sites will be in Orchard Beach, in The Bronx, but the location of the second hasn't been confirmed

  • Residents of the area around Orchard Beach told DailyMail.com they are outraged by the plans

  • Many accused Adams of being a hypocrite for not housing the migrants in his own neighborhood

  • A local pastor said: 'The Bronx has very little space. We have Van Cortland Park but there is no place like Orchard Beach... This is unfair to the people that utilize the beach'

  • Adams has claimed the plan is a moral triumph over Texas and Florida, which he claims turned their backs on the issue

  • The vast majority of the migrants say they want to come to New York, a sanctuary city where their chances of being turned in to ICE are slimmer

  • Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Texas' Greg Abbott sent them duly north - to the outrage of Adams and others

  • Republicans say it calls the bluff of the rich liberal elite who claim to be pro-immigration without living through the true scale of the crisis
