“It’s all about spotlighting MS13 to inflame support for his Wall. It needs to be said (often & loudly) that gang violence is largely a result of young people who have been separated from parental influence.  Trump and the GOP have separated thousands of young children & youths from their families at the border, and LOST TRACK of them! They are responsible for creating future MS13’s all over America.”
I don’t know many gang members!  But I know of one example (hear say info). They are a set of brothers.  The younger one was born prematurely because his mother was beat up by his dad when she was 26 weeks pregnant.  The mother later died of unknown causes and the father was essentially absentee, siring many children from different partners.  He was a wife beater.  The 2 boys (both born in this country) were picked up by the Latin Kings and taught how to become car thiefs.  They both spent time in jail.  They can be violent.  They never had parents…

“Roundtable” on Gangs and Immigration https://resistancesuffolk.wp.urdemo.website/2018/09/18/roundtable-on-gangs-and-immigration/ Tue, 18 Sep 2018 03:10:45 +0000 https://resistancesuffolk.wp.urdemo.website/2018/09/18/roundtable-on-gangs-and-immigration/ Continue reading →]]> Lee Zeldin and Bob Goodlatte held a “roundtable” on the topic of gangs and immigration at Suffolk County College of Riverhead.  With little notice and no invites to relevant local leaders or concerned citizen’s groups, those that did show up (about 60 people) were shut out of the meeting!   A roundtable usually implies that all concerned are invited to participate.  Not in Zeldin’s world.  Like his mentor, he doesn’t like dissent.

I have a copy of the printed agenda of the meeting (see below) and pictures of the protestors outside the building that we were not allowed to enter.  Students on campus were interested in all the commotion and we got to register some of them to vote!

The press was present – I am sure we will hear more about this.  It sounds like another Photo-op for ZELDIN.  Not a serious effort to help improve anyone’s life.  Here is a press report:  http://www.fios1news.com/longisland/local-suffolk-roundtable-on-immigration-gang-violence-met-with-protests#.W6Bt0VJRfOS
