Some of it comes off the garbage trains too.Also besides people being pigs the garbage collection chaos rules causes people to just dump their stuff.

let them clean it up.....

It’s causing rats and mice infestations in nearby homes.

Problem in Woodside too on 38 av.

NYC and the MTA care nothing about our Queens community or our residents… we need to respond in kind and some.

NYC is one big shithole of illegals and leftists Democrats. Power to the Europeans who built this country and city

Gotta love the part...... "Hosts aren't responsible for anybody getting hurt" 🤣

It was more like police takeover 🤣

Every Homeowner In MV, Glendale Should Attend, Ready To Play Miniature Golf And Use The Batting Cage…..

Hopefully gave 104 a heads up too.

It's time folks to "L9ck & Load😡

I just drove by the cops have a car at every entrance and cops standing around as well. I watched 3 teens on scooters about to enter that could not.. so hopefully this won't happen.

Wow! Violence Caution? 🤬

104 is aware of the issue.

I heard they're going to Middle Village Playground now lol

Can this be confirmed?

I think Texas just put into law Parents will be responsible

Law enforcement look up the background info on internet users of this notice of the meet up and go arrest them.

The post is deleted, but there are 3 Instagram users on that poster. Also, 2 users (youth_outside_nyc; synced_in_time) also organize takeovers. Instagram refuses to remove the accounts unless more people mass report them

Oh come on, are u serious?? We can't have anything nice anymore.

What is this?

Are they coming to Shop and Spend Money or are they going to be Looting and causing mayhem ?

What happened last night

So, did this happen?

Which race has most % of attendees @ these takeovers?! What is normally the outcome?!

😭😭😭😭
