Source: I was there last weekend.
The lockdown isn't about COVID. The lockdown is about how Miami Beach has been totally overrun by ghetto trash. It's not college spring breakers, but straight up thugs and degenerates who have overrun what normally is a pretty classy area. The first time I ever saw a woman with face tattoos was last weekend. Crime has gone up considerably from what I've seen, and you've probably seen that too with news of shooting which normally basically never happens on Miami Beach.
So honestly, I hate the lockdowns as much as anyone, but I'm not really sure what else the city can do. How do we prevent ghetto trash from showing up? Serious question. The normal high end clubs like LIV are closed right now, so it's not drawing the classy crowd. Apparently Miami Beach has been going downhill for a while now with the ratchet crowd, and people go to Brickell (downtown Miami, mainland) instead.
I wanted to make this post because right wing media is criticizing the lockdown, and I don't blame them, but there is more to the story than just that. Honestly, I'd like to see our media start covering the ghetto invasion of Miami Beach...they're going to call us racist no matter what, so might as well just tell the truth.
The city might be saying it's for COVID, but that's purely to avoid the charge of muh racism. I'm open to ideas on how to fix this, but don't know.
Member when Katrina hit and they exported all of their fucking trash to Texas and Florida? Same shit...
Places like NoLa aren’t ghetto shit-holes because of their location, it’s because of their residents. What do you think is gonna happen when you give a bunch of unemployed professional government grifting thugs thousands of dollars?
Surprised the Cubans aren’t down there mounting a resistance.
