Prospect Park Holiday Litter
It’s truly amazing how the South Slope Latino community is so ready to hijack the SW corner of the park every holiday weekend for their enormous bar-b-ques. Even more fascinating though is the amount of plastic crap they leave thrown about for the rest of us to find the next morning.

Sorry you cant read Square. But I repeatedly confined my observations to the south slope community that trashes the southwest corner park. My comments are about that area because that is the area I know and walk every day. You see, I dont talk out of my ass like other people do. In fact my guess is that the knee-jerk push back is probably from people who dont even live anywhere near the south slope. They just want to rush to the defense of being PC, at the expense of understanding the reality.
The reality is that those of us who pay the most taxes do so in order that the lower classes can enjoy life on our dollar. It keeps them from revolting and we have people to work in the kitchens and serve as nannies at minimum wage or below.
A mess in the park during the Summer is not something most of us ever even deal with as anyone with any money leaves NYC during the Summer weekends anyway.

No, you said a lot more after your original post. You took a valid statement about the litter problem (with which i totally agree) and soiled it with a car-wreck of argument about the habits of Latinos. The reason you are getting so much push back is not knee-jerk, it’s because your arguments about race are inflammatory and not logical. (they “hijacked” the park???)
This problem is not limited to Latinos just because that’s what you happened to see littering in the section of the park WHERE THEY WERE HANGING OUT.
Dave, I think I am available next Saturday at about 2:00p.m. Let me know if this work for you and ENY.
Thanks,
Sloper
“ENY, you bring the beers, I’ll bring the lawn chairs.”
Deal. I’d definitely like to be there to witness how that goes down.
Dave,
Bring whatever lawn chairs and beer you want. Just make sure you take out the trash when you are done please. Thanks.
Unprotected, believe it or not, I wasnt really waiting for or needing your opinion…imagine that.
Square,
My point is simply what is stated in the original post. Leave it to others to take the thread every other direction about race, etc.
Obviously people with knee-jerk defense mechanisms have way bigger issues about race than I do…
People, this is getting insane.
Sloper, first I thought you were genuinely trying to talk about something and just did it in a clumsy way. Now I just think you’re trying to get a whole bunch of attention. You’ve now officially had as much of my attention as you’re going to get. I’ll make sure not to reply helpfully to any requests you make to this list for a while.
Now sloper, please go ahead and have your last word. I promise not to stand in your way.
sloper, let us know when you’re going back to the park to remedy this situation. I think ENY and I want to watch.
ENY, you bring the beers, I’ll bring the lawn chairs.
