The guys in your video probably didn't go randomly attacking people like MS-13. Latin gangs are violent street gangs with a history of violence against innocent citizens. MS-13 is actively recruiting in Westbury schools, and wherever there is a presence of illegals.
I saw those large groups of teens when I grew up in Levittown, and I never saw them bother anybody. Now compare that to gangs like MS-13, which often feature armed robbery, murder,etc as duties for a new recruit.
I remember quite a few years ago at the South Shore Mall, hearing stories that MS-13 would stand by the mall entrance and have a "new member" attack the first person who walked in with a red shirt.
I'm terrified of them and I know they are around Westbury. Now does Levittown have MS-13? Probably, in a small amount, but they are much bigger here.
Do any of you walk down Post ave everyday? Do any of you have to ride the bus through Westbury everyday? If not, then you really dont know what is going on.
This was taken on a bus just today. An MS-13 tag. This bus is regularely assigned to the N22 through Westbury.
The MS-13 is a violent international street gang comprised primarily of immigrants from El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala, many of whom are in the United States illegally. With hundreds of members locally, the MS-13 is the largest street gang on Long Island. In Nassau County, members belong to chapters, or "cliques," located primarily in Hempstead, Freeport, Roosevelt, New Cassel, and Westbury. In Suffolk County, the gang's cliques are located primarily in Brentwood, Huntington, Copiague, Farmingdale, and Islip.
C'mon Sean...cruising the Pike in your Monte Carlo was riding in style!
NO DOUBT BRO
John, no way....nothing in Levittown/Wantagh has ever been as bad as MS-13, and I think the kids in those videos are a joke....but I have a feeling that if they were Hispanic kids those videos would somehow seem a lot more terrifying to most members on here.
You also have to remember that even though there is some MS-13 presence on Long Island, even police estimates do not put the number that high. I've read anywhere between 200-500 out of....how many illegals? Probably over 100,000 if not way more. I'm not saying this isn't a massive problem that needs to be taken care of, but lets not blow it out of proportion. I also have a friend who works in one of the Hempstead night clubs and he tells me that a lot of people who come through there claim to be MS-13 (or Latin Kings) to look hard and impress girls, but they're mostly full of it. I don't wanna rip apart that article you posted and I'm just gonna assume it's factual, but I also thought it was pretty funny that it's coming from a news source who has "HEAR TERRY SCHIAVO LAUGH" as one of their main headlines. I don't wanna downplay violent gangs at all though, this is a serious problem....however, most illegal aliens you meet aren't involved in that at all.
I have a police power point presentation about MS-13 which I have no idea as to how to link here. It's frightening to say the least -- nothing to do with color, everything to do with the violence.
The presentation was sent in an email. If anyone here can tell me how to link it so that anyone interested may read it, please dm me how to do it and I will post the link. Thanks.
I wish I could see that but I dont have Powerpoint. My suggestion would be to maybe convert them to jpegs and host them on a free server like photobucket.
Most people just don't realize how dangerous MS-13 is and that they are quite entrenched into Long Island. I've seen tags in alot of towns, Westbury, New Cassel, Carle Place, East Hills (prob from the "help" they use),etc.
A neighbor of mine told me they were walking down Post ave last summer and they saw a guy dressed in blue and white with baggy jeans, when he pulled up his jeans she saw a revolver tucked in there.
This is the kind of stuff that scares me. To know that these savages are active on Post avenue is not a comforting thought.
I know it's much, much worse in New Cassel but as I see it spreading in along Maple and now onto Post I cant help but feel alarmed about it.
John you shouldn't let this stuff eat you alive like this can't you just move to another town. I mean you have been going at this for at least four years or for as long as i can remember. When I saw some of the pics you posted I remember seeing some of them on the news12 message boards 2 or 3 years ago. I can't believe you are still at it. Do yourself favor and move own with your live nothing stays the same. I see people come on here and rant how their town used to be, that time is long gone. Don't get me wrong I can totally understand some of the frustrations but it really is not worth the time and energy. What people need to do is to use some of that energy to put pressure on the government to protect the boarders. Just a quick story. There was this woman I used to work with couple of years ago in Hicksville who every time I went to her house would complain abut the Indians taking over Hicksville. Apparently on that street all the neighbors had made a pat that they would not sell to other races especially Indians. Her neighbor across the street from her was desperate to sell her house . Well guess what, the neighbor took the first cash offer they got from an Indian family sold the house and moved to Florida. She along with some other neighbors were furious that this neighbor had done that. Everytime I went to her house I heard about it. Now she was a very nice person, just couldn't stand Indians taking over. Well nine months ago I called to see how she was doing, her husband told me she had passed away can't say I was surprise b/c she was not a well person to begin with. Long story short the husband told me that he couldn't afford the up keep of the house and he can't wait to sell it. The surprise was when he said that he was going into contract with an Indian family who liked the house
I can't move, for personal reasons I cannot discuss here, it's too humiliating to explain, trust me.
Also no matter where I'd go in Nassau I'd still have to deal with the illegals on the buses, and I can't stomach driving, dont have the guts or the $$.

I cant see why anyone would have a problem with Indians, unlike the illegals, they come here legally and are educated, civilized people.
I wouldn't worry about the Indians in Hicksville, but the illegals. They seem to be taking over by the train station and vicinity. Some new gang signs in the area.
