It's actually insulting that these people stereotype Americans as individuals that just eat junk food. That stuff is loaded with garbage. I saw some of them recently. They were just walking up to people with no sort of communication trying to push their candy on them. Totally rude. If they're doing this poorly here, why bother to come here? Their governments should be taking care of them instead of them coming here. Enough.

How soon before these Latino immigrants run up against the guys trying to sell candy for their sports team? Vendor fights?

They will soon find out that milking donkeys back home was a lot easier and rent over here must be paid every month.

Yesterday I did a subway ride and did quick transfers from the G to F to A lines
The “migrants” were selling stuff on each ride I was on

One young black city kid bought a candy bar for $2
He must not understand that it is probably better not to help the “migrants” replacing him
The migrants are not the same as city kids selling candy

Also care to mention all of the “migrants” wear brand new clothes, new jackets, new backpacks and quality shoes. Well fed and very well taken care of

Sad,but that is what I have noticed as of late.

Every migrant woman with candies, flowers, home made food and drink carrying a child hoping to make a sale.
Beyond Sad.

I hope they see the American Dream come true one day but I don't have the heart to tell them that I believe it won't be
during this recession ....

Today i asked a deli clerk where he is from. I had to pry but reluctantly he responded Mexico. Same ordeal as the others, i asked where he snuck in from, he would not say. I’m like so you snuck in from, probably into Texas

A lot of these Mexican people do not like New York and they come from a background of significant hatred of “gringos” and it shows. If you approach enough of them you will see it, otherwise can you not notice that they AVOID any and all interactions with real New Yorkers? It is like they were all given an instructional video for how to behave once they bust into the USA

Like Donald Trump once said, Mexico is not our friend. But the other night i watched on youtube Trump speaking and saying he has decent diplomacy with the leader of Mexico

What a complete disaster. They are here taking SO MANY JOBS. The Mexicans alone must have stolen nearly 1 million of our jobs in NYC. Imagine how much that depressed our wages here. Imagine how much that negatively affects our housing costs when millions of them are heisting a dark market for housing illegals in NYC

Cancel welfare and those who were on it would hang on to any and all those jobs Mexicans take. Mexicans don't complain. They work and work. The welfare crowd knows how to complain because things are given to them for free. And affordable housing is also a joke. No one should live in a place they can't afford to live in. That's just not the way things work in life.

Don't tell me you fell for that one!

Maybe a small percentage of those kids selling candy are doing so for school, sports or whatever. The rest are selling jacked candy someone boosted from a store and pocketing the money.

Have lost count how many times saw some eegjit run out of RA or Duane Reade with cases of candy in their arms. More so during run up to Halloween when stores had huge displays of candy in front often near doors.

No way you said this because someone would have smacked you upside the head.
