WOW! NY considering using prison for displaced Sandy vitims!

okay creepy apologist, nervous that your team isn't looking so good, or people are catching on?

I already know your kind want the US to become like "the rest of the world" and by that you mean the lowest of the third world...

oh yeah and one more thing:

WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU YELLING IN ALL CAPS?

New Jersey pigs deserve their encampment in prisons!


LOCK EM ALL UP!!!

They deserve it.

TO THE FEEEEEEEEEMA CAMPS!

Because any hotels within a 150-mile radius of the NY-NJ metro area were booked FULL before and in the days after the hurricane! Some people DID flee!!!

Absolutely correct. Good-bye,Beloved Country...

Has it begun?

Officials in New York are reportedly eyeing a recently-closed prison as temporary housing for people displaced by superstorm Sandy and this week's nor'easter.

The New York Post reports that state officials are considering the Arthur Kill Correctional Facility on Staten Island to feed and house as many as 900 victims with nowhere else to turn.

dam shame ...wish the american people had the courage to turn it around.

when that fucking fat fuck Chris Christie walked hand in hand w/ his boyfriend, Obama, I saw in the background...

A FUCKING FEMA-TARD W/ A M-16 strapped around his shoulder!!!

a freakin' M-16!!!

This was on fox

Yikes, they would just start back up a fully functional prison with non criminals scary! Do they lock your cell at night?

Why was the prison shut down?

And no one here sees yet that this, the taking over of the "Arthur Kill Correctional Facility" would, at least in name, then be regarded as the "FEMA Kill Facility"?

FEMA Kill/ Correction Facility?

Beware the growing comfort of name associations

Official Sheep Response from the article:

"It's empty. They might as well use it," said Rob Conigatti, 39, who lost his Dongan Hills home and is now staying with his extended family. "At least they have the right facilities. You can't keep them in schools. The kids gotta go to school."

I'll tell you what then, how about the authorities just do nothing and let everyone starve and freeze to death...FEMA did it...why should anyone else care?

Well, someone cared enough to say, "hey, we have an empty facility that would serve the greatest purpose right now even though it was first intended to house criminals, it will now feed, warm and clothe hundreds if not thousands (including children) of NYC citizens. They finally have an answer to survival and I'll be willing to bet that anyone posting a complaint about this on this thread isn't in Staten Island right now with no heat, food, or enough clothes to keep your children warm.

I'll bet these citizens are happy and thankful to have a place to go right now, prison or not.

Geez, people, these residents aren't going to be arrested for crying out loud or treated like criminals.

Would you all feel better if they used an abandoned church instead...how about a Mosque...I bet that would really get you going!

Well, I don't care how you feel, my concerns are with the suffering people in NY and surrounding areas. I'm glad that solutions are being worked out. It's going to be a long, cold winter in those parts and a lot of people lost their homes.

Any solution for them that will keep them healthy albeit, alive, I truly welcome.

GLP has a bug up their asses this week. Not everything is evil and diabolical.

Ever hear of critical thinking? It should be a requirement on this website.

You people on GLP are paranoid loons.

I, for one, think it's a great idea. These poor human beings need shelter, food, hot water, a place to sleep. They have just lost EVERYTHING! It shouldn't matter what facility it happens in. We know from past experience that a stadium isn't sufficient. :-(

It is going to be winter soon. Most of these people don't have flood insurance. Their homes are not going to be repaired. How many displaced people do we still have from Katrina????

Yes, give them shelter!!!!! I am a single mom of three kids, and I'd be first in line, rather than see my children die of exposure and starvation.

If I had the space, I'd also be the first to invite another family to live with me. I can't stand the thought of other human beings suffering through no fault of their own. Show some compassion! Sheesh!

Not everything is a conspiracy. I will eat my words if I'm wrong, but so far, this seems like a logical idea.

Jails are designed to lock people up and control them. They have single beds in dorms or cells and have toilet pots in the middle of the room. How the hell does a family - or multiple families deal with this? It's an outrage to decency - imagine everyone in the room watching a girl shitting and farting in the middle of the room.

How the hell do they make this fit for the American culture?
