Athens and its Illegal Immigrants

We saw many of Athens illegal immigrants selling fake handbags, watches and sunglasses. We heard that they come over to Greece and sink their boats to be saved by the Greek authorities to gain entry to the country. They set up shop on blankets that they can quickly move when the police come after them. Daily we saw the police chasing them out of the touristy areas as they have no papers or pay any taxes. We even saw a fight between some of them and security guards where one of illegals lost his entire inventory when all the watches spilled out onto the road when he was shoved.
