Oops! You’re right — it was land held by the Boston Redevelopment Authority, not the Housing Authority. In any case, though, not Menino’s personal land to sell at far below market value!
It was a valuable investment for Boston. Just look at the diversity it has encouraged. Only in America can a poor Chechen boy grow up to as effective a terrorist as a wealthy Saudi. Only in America are muslim kids able to absorb the jihadists teachings at their local mosque regardless of national or ethnic origin. Only in America can you slaughter innocent people and immediately be defended by liberals wanting to know what America did to provoke such a “cry for help”.
