Some asylum seekers protest relocation plan

The city wants to move single men from a hotel in Manhattan to shelter in Brooklyn to make way for more families. CBS2's Zinnia Maldonado has more.

I've never once thought that if I went anywhere let alone another country I would be taken care of by someone else but if someone did help me I definitely would not be complaining about it. That's just insane.

[GD-fnid]

this is the sh*% that drives me crazy!! they are being given shelter and now its not good enough. Put their ass back on a plane!!

[drinny]

Why don’t those advocates open the doors to their own homes? SMDH

[RobertAdams]

Why didn't they protest over the bad conditions back in their Countries??
What Idiots!!!

[elizabethr]

Perhaps they'd prefer deportation

America with a half million homeless & immigrants complaining 🤔Send them home.

Ungrateful!! This is what a happens when we have a stupid set of people in city hall welcoming people with open arms and providing for them everyday.. what is the end game here? They are not going quietly and what if their asylum is denied? Then what? It will take years to decide their asylum claim and in the meantime all NYrs should suffer? You’re going to run this city down to shreds and the very people who you try to help with turn on you and destroy this place.

They supposedly traveled through a jungle, several countries on foot but can't figure out how to leave a borough to get to work?

Ok for a while they lived in $500.00 a night rooms in a hotel, They trashed the rooms drank beer and sat around
doing noting but partying all on tax payer's money. And some even went out a stole things from stores.
WTF are they going to do when the freebee's stop coming in. If I was the mayor I would put them on a bus and
ship them right back to the border

Imagine Going to a Random Country n Demanding Shxt...

And Josh their is no remote corner of Brooklyn. They can easily walk 15 to 20 minutes to a subway. After all they walked 1000 miles to get here didn't they.

How dare the taxpayers of NYC not continue to pay for luxury Manhattan hotel rooms for these “migrants”. They are too high end to be expected to live in an outer Borough like Brooklyn. Keep voting Democrat NYC.

[ronrazillard]

I don't know why they think their life's going to be so much better in New York with no money or government money

[robertm.]

If they are so unhappy here and the conditions are so terrible they can simply go back to their homes where they started their journey. Especially the single men. Why would they leave their families behind if the place they came from was so bad.

Ryker's island is an option too... They already broke multiple federal laws

If you want to protest free room and food in a strange country, you need to be put on a plane and sent back home.
If a US citizen did that in Mexico or Honduras, that US citizen would be sent to jail or expelled from that country.
When you have nothing and need help, you take the help.
You don't expect the best when you are not an asset to the country you are in illegally.

[SpideyCents]

seeking asylum, then not wanting to leave the free hotel to go another free location

[americafirst]

Just imagine trying to evict these tenants. TO ALL LANDLORDS YOU'VE BEEN WARNED

[johnhmielewski]

Now can you imagine the chaos when the rest of all 500 million from South and central America come in?

[randywilson]

Maybe, the homeless can seek asylum so they can get housing 🏡 🤔
