Miami in the 80's - Mariel Boatlift - Cocaine Cowboys

http://www.ImmigrationControlFlorida.com

TIME MAGAZINE' article "PARADISE LOST" refers to the 125,000 Mariel Cuban refugees that illegally invaded Miami-Dade County contained 50,000 murderers, psychopaths, criminally insane, drug pushers, hitmen, enforcers, prostitutes and misfits that made "Miami the Murder Capital of the world with 621 murders. Joe Davis, the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner on WTVJ-TV called the murderers Worse than "animals". There were so many dead bodies that he rented a refrigerated truck to store The excess bodies because the morgue was full. Manny Diaz, attorney for SALAD / Spanish American League Against Discrimination castigated Joe Davis for calling the Mariel Cuban refugees "animals" and demanded that WTVJ-TV retract Joe Davis' statements. Manny Diaz (presently the Mayor of Miami, Fla.) was one of the many Miami Cuban-Americans who demanded that all 125,000 Refugees all come to Miami. By 1981, one year after they arrived, these refugee criminals cost Miami taxpayers $150 million, overwhelmed our schools, government agencies, jails and courts. The entire Rookie police class were either dead or put in prison.

Not all cubans are coke dealers. There are bad apples in all cultures.

Its a free market economy. Goverments rip its citizens off, can't say I'm

surprised that criminal elements are running drugs, etc. In the early 80's

there were more US Banks in Miami. The construction boom was all

money laundered from drugs. The US Goverment got a share of

the cash at the expense of the drug runners.

@lesliemarin93 I WAS BORN HERE IN SICILY OF A CUBAN FATHER. I LOVE MY FATHER. WONDERFUL FATHER. NEVER HIT ME IN MY 33 YEARS OF AGE. THE CUBANS ARE VERY SMART. PROBABLY ONE OF THE SMATERST PEOPLE EVER LIVE.

My Husband is Cuban , He came here in 1980. He is not a criminal or a drug addict. This is not true that all the cubans sent here in 80 are bad people. I love the Cuban People.

Wow this brings back memories. I lived on Miami Beach from 1980-1982 and recall it was a sad time. Lincoln Road stores were closed and deserted. South Beach was the low rent area, The Mariel Boatlife, Hurriance David, all put a huge strain on the city. It took Producer Michael Mann and the Miami Vice TV show to put Miami back on the map.

This all began when Mariel began.....I was there.....I know.

[Morr1992]

@lego12356 The president is a muppet for the rest of the government.. Do you truly think he comes up with all his decisions by himself?
