Any MLK Blvd. in any city.
Perfectly stated.
But why?
Kind of like all the euphemisms for salt and sugar that keep them off the top of the ingredients lists on packaging.
Hide the truth. That is what is practised. Whether by design or by method.
There is a huge concentration of dilapidated welfare housing complexes there on both sides of this 4 lane street that runs for 5-6 blocks. Ames Ave is a major thoroughfare in Omaha. It has been very dangerous driving through there during the day since I can remember.
“Nobody” wants to mention the obvious. That would be rayssiss...
IMHO no place is really safe.
Crime can happen anyplace anytime.
This is why dc lives in his backyard ::(
“All you gotta do is look at the bluest places on the map, and stay the hell out of there.”
Well I don’t know,not one New England state is on the list and neither is New York City.
.
“Is there a common link to these neighborhoods?”
A question that has no need to be asked.
However, I look at it differently - what they have in common is that the people who live there, and their forefathers (uh...so to speak), have been extensively “helped” by Liberal thinking for the last 50 years.
Bingo!
Worked for my city.
My dad grew up very close to one of those Chicongo neighborhoods, not too far from what is now the Malcom X College. It’s changed a bit since he was there, though.
Oops, that should be “Malcolm X”. At least I spelled his last name right!
If I have a 50x50 mile area that has one murder, but a population only 200 people, it will indicate a very high murder rate per 1,000. But you have to ask, is there anything special about that area that made that one murder more likely? If not, its just an anomaly.
Also, if I have 5 apartment complexes, full of equally dangerous people, that share a common park, and most crime is in that park. Grouping one complex with the park will show it to be more dangerous, but it isn't. In fact, it may not even be the park that is dangerous. In the case of the area in Jacksonville, the murders involved people coming into the area to deal in crime and fight each other. You weren't likely to be threatened by that, if you weren't involved with it.
Oh those Democrats. Creating welfare slums for decades.
I would like to see someone post the ethnic, racial, political demographics for each of these places.
We have a consistent profile of the social underclass culture. Idle hands are the Devil’s Tool.
I am guessing I know what the profile looks like, but if someone has the data on each of these neighborhoods pleas post it.
I would say each neighborhood needs to be leveled and the residence dispersed over a broad area to break up the criminal element.
Like Cancer its sometimes necessary to remove the bad growth
Yes, of course there is: they are homes to functionally-illiterate, drug-addled, third-generation government dependents from fatherless and faithless families.
50 years of Progressive social policy created these nightmares, by replacing the values and virtues of Western civilization with the rules of the jungle and the smothering embrace of the State.
But say that out loud, and a cacophony of manufactured outrage will envelop you with false charges of racism and bigotry, promoted especially by rich liberals in their cloistered communities, walled off from the reality that advances on them daily.
Ping for comments
Neighborhoods obviously full of white, tea party, gun enthusiasts.
