Sewage flows in streets as landlords cram up to 64 in single-family homes The impact of uncontrolled immigration is coming home for residents of many Long Island, New York, communities as landlords turn single-family homes into filthy, overcrowded tenements holding as many as 64 renters – causing health and fire dangers and transforming neighborhoods. Illegal rooming houses, serving both documented and undocumented immigrants, are increasingly appearing across Long Island, as landlords fill a niche created by the demand for and availability of cheap foreign labor. "It's definitely spreading," Brookhaven Councilman James Tullo, who heads a task force investigating 300 illegal rentals in his town, told Newsday. "It's popping up in areas where you wouldn't expect them to be." While the closure of a home housing 64 men in Farmingville last month represents the most extreme case, officials in other communities cite their own examples: "They're changing the face of the neighborhood," says Farmingville resident Lisa Marino. "There's this flophouse atmosphere." "I've never seen it this bad," adds Islip Town Councilman Christopher Bodkin, "and it's getting worse all the time." The worst conditions are found at "shift-bed" houses – places where mattresses are rented for limited periods of time. Most such houses offer two shifts per day, notes Nassau County Assessor Harvey Levinson. "Sleeping in closets, sleeping in basements, sleeping in shifts," says former Nassau County Assistant Fire Marshal Steve Wenk. "We've seen it all." Renters say they typically pay from $250 to $350 a month per person. When five or six share a bedroom, rates are usually less. Seasonal workers from South Africa pay their employer, Glen Oaks Country Club, $75 a week to live two or three to a room in a home the club rents from a Queens businessman. Included in the rent is transportation to work in the club's van that honks it's horn during it's early morning pickup – to the chagrin of neighbors. "We're paying our full load for taxes to live here and the person behind me is running a rooming house," complains neighbor Carol Voelger. Between 1990 and 2000, the number of "overcrowded" housing units in Nassau and Suffolk counties grew by 41 percent. Officially, the "overcrowded" label is used to describe housing with more than one person per room. With the influx of immigrants into Long Island, officials say finding 15 people living in a single-family home is not rare. Most cases of overcrowded housing and squalid conditions never come to their attention, authorities admit. Vanessa Tallerico, whose neighborhood has six illegal rooming houses, remembers when her community had "a mixture of people." "When you have 300 to 400 men move in, that's no longer diverse," she says.

Vans from the local country club and other labor contractors honking their horns at 5:00 a.m. There's one of these in my neighborhood and it's one of the reasons I'll be leaving soon. They've got at least 25 people in one house, they take up all the parking and all their amigos think the car horn is the doorbell. They live on the porch and drink beer when it's hot and only God knows what the inside of the place looks like. I'd say it's 3d world but that would be disrespectful to the real 3d world. Oh and BTW, the cops won't do squat about it, let alone deport the wetback SOBs. I dare anyone to go to mexico and try this crap, you'll end up beaten, robbed and in jail. Bush is a traitor!
LOL! Bush is a traitor! He is indeed.

This is a big pet peeve of mine also. General laziness of people has led to this being a problem with a lot of people from all races. I want to lean out my front door and yell...Get off your dead ass, get out of your mobile living room (their cell phone in hand) and go to the door jack ass!!!
The future is so bright I got to wear shades.
It's a waste of time, they're too stupid. These people are too dumb to multi-task i.e. drive and talk on a cell phone at the same time. Every time I see a minivan doing 25 mph down the middle of the street I know it's a wetback on a cell phone. Their brains just don't have enough RAM. It's like trying to run photoshop 8 and surf the net at the same time with an old 486 based computer. We as a nation will pay the price for importing and allowing to breed (at our expense) millions of nitwits who will only spawn more nitwits, but I guess that's the plan. A dumb America, is an easily controlled America.
They're called "favelas" in Brazil.
Legals/illegals, the result is the same. America is transforming into a third world nation. Credit must be given to those who engineered it. Prof. MacDonald has discovered that implausible arguments about diversity being a quintessentially American strength have been made by Jews for a long time. He reports that in 1948 the American Jewish Committee was urging Congress to believe that “Americanism is the spirit behind the welcome that America has traditionally extended to people of all races, all religions, all nationalities.” Of course, there had never been such a tradition. In 1952, the American Jewish Congress argued in hearings on immigration that “our national experience has confirmed beyond a doubt that our very strength lies in the diversity of our peoples.” This, too, was at a time when U.S. immigration law was still explicitly designed to maintain a white majority. It has often been said that when the old immigration policy was scrapped in 1965, scarcely anyone knew, and no one predicted, that the new law would change the racial makeup of the country. Prof. MacDonald disputes this, arguing that this had been the objective of Jewish groups from the beginning. Prof. MacDonald finds that Jews have been the foremost advocates of immigration in England, France, and Canada, and that Jewish groups were the most vocal opponents of independence for Quebec. Australian Jews led the effort to dismantle the “white Australia” policy, one reason for which was cited in an editorial in the Australian Jewish Democrat: “The strengthening of multi-cultural or diverse Australia is also our most effective insurance policy against anti-Semitism. The day Australia has a Chinese Australian Governor General I would feel more confident of my freedom to live as a Jewish Australian.” Like Earl Raab writing about the United States, this Australian Jew is prepared to sacrifice the traditional culture, people, and identity of Australia to specifically Jewish interests.

After the narrow 50.58%-to-49.42% defeat of the 1995 Quebec referendum on sovereignty, the then-premier of Quebec, Jacques Parizeau, made a concession speech in which he made his infamous remark blaming the defeat on "money and the ethnic vote". Although Parizeau later apologized for his statement, the remark has since been widely used by federalists to discredit the sovereigntist movement as racist. BTW The other big player in the 1995 Quebec referendum, the leader of the separatist Parti Quebecois, Lucien Bouchard got a case of flesh eating bacteria about 6 weeks before the referendum and they amputated his right leg. It slowed him down enough so that he couldn't travel and rally support for Independence in the final days before the vote. They lost by 0.05% What a coincidence............
Does he feel that way about Israel becoming more diverse?

That was very interesting. Put the 2 together and it explains a lot.

Why if he doesn't then there might be a double standard, one for Jews, one for everyone else.

If the PQ had won the referendum, they would have put a 500+ mile wide hole in Canada, completely cutting off the Atlantic Provinces (Who threatened to join the USA if that happened) An independent Quebec would have prospered without Ottawa and the idea would have spread west though Canada to Alberta and BC. Then the idea would have spread south and the PTB didn't want that to happen. Why kill a man and make a martyr, when you can just slow him up enough to fail? Giving Bouchard a case of flesh eating bacteria was a ruthless but brilliant move on the part of the federalists. The whole North American house of cards was as close to coming down as it was in 1861 and today very few remember the details.
Well that is what is great about 4, we have people here who know things and we get missing pieces to the puzzle we are all working on together.

Like that Ukrainian, except he managed to win anyway. It wasn't flesh eating bacteria, but the German physicians who treated him said that he had been poisoned. Besides being quite ill, it left his face badly pock-marked.

I don't know the details of the Ukraine vote but I assume you are correct. Any leader or people who try to defy the PTB/NWO even by peaceful ballot will get the same treatment.
