The feds keeping the neighborhoods safe.

repearations are due. All "people of color" should recieve a free house in the neighborhood of there choosing. (Even if they are not descended from slaves)







As the progressive movement enters further into it's final death throes...we will see more and more of this crazy shiite.

By the end Obama will have an afro 4 inches thick and he will be doing the balck panther fist pump. mark my words.

Brown v Board of Education

As somebody who teaches Con. Law, the fact the person is so ignorant of the difference between de facto and de jure discrimination puts a knot in my stomach. A myth? What? Calling de facto discrimination a myth is like saying the sun is a myth or the ground you walk on is a myth.

Bless the poor idiot who wrote that and anybody that believes it.

God help us!

I don't understand the point. Yes, white people have and in some cases continue to make the choice not to live near black people. Guess what, black people also make similar considerations. So do rich people and a host of other categories. In fact I've long contended that residential integration was never really designed to happen. But, wherever I see these articles part of me wishes the writers would go live on the Southside of Chicago for a year for a little perspective.

People can live wherever they want within their financial means. I live in a city that is 40% black and they continue to choose to put their families at risk and stay in some of the worst neighborhoods the state of Virginia has to offer, despite being a blue collar town full of very inexpensive and much safer neighborhoods that are predominently white and have better schools. It is really amazing. My son's best friend from basketball... his mom is a registered nurse and his dad (they live together) owns a small contracting business. The neighborhood they live in is so bad, I won't let my son stay over there and when their boy stays with us, I won't let my wife drop him of at their house.

I think the thesis is that regulations designed on purpose to create segregation and build white middle class consumer communities and ghettoizing black communities.

I wouldn't be surprised in the least if in the near future the cities are white, the first ring suburbs are black, and the next ring of suburbs are white.

Disagree. First ring suburbs are well protected old money in most places and are a mix of old money blue bloods and white liberals (with a lot of Jews). The outer suburbs are usually a lot blacker than the inner suburbs as middle class blacks love newer subdivisions. Cities themselves can change block to block and I predict status quo on that.

Sounds like the donut of the month at Tim Hortons.

People will live among those that they are comfortable with. Within 5 houses on my street I have a white lesbian couple, 2 black families, and a Korean couple. These houses are in the $200k-300k range.

Laws weren't necessary for segregation to exist, people were doing that of their own volition. Plus his assertions seem to be limited to strictly white and black analysis and doesn't mentioned the racial divisions of Poles, Irish, Italians and Jews in places like Chicago and Boston.
