Obama administration to unveil major new rules targeting segregation across U.S.
The Washington Post ^ | 07/08/2015 | Emily Badger

CHICAGO -- When the Fair Housing Act was passed in 1968, it barred the outright racial discrimination that was then routine. It also required the government to go one step further — to actively dismantle segregation and foster integration in its place — a mandate that for decades has been largely forgotten, neglected and unenforced.

Now, on Wednesday, the Obama administration will announce long-awaited rules designed to repair the law’s unfulfilled promise and promote the kind of racially integrated neighborhoods that have long eluded deeply segregated cities like Chicago and Baltimore. The new rules, a top demand of civil-rights groups, will require cities and towns all over the country to scrutinize their housing patterns for racial bias and to publicly report, every three to five years, the results. Communities will also have to set goals, which will be tracked over time, for how they will further reduce segregation.

Is this a euphemism for intercalating ISIS and
the “rebels” from Syria (a.k.a. al Qaeda) into
America?

Fine... forcefully integrate the cities.
The whites and the civilized law abiding citizens will exit to find their own safe place.
Then we are right back where we were.

This is just great. They will take the money from us, the working people, and use our money to move

Importing inner city crime/drugs into a neighborhood near you, with your money!

Oh Yeah.....

Anyone with half a brain can see with their own eyes that the only public driving force behind segregation has been the government and the minorities it claims to be helping.

Since the government creates it, the best way to fix it is to label it one more time and promise to end it, as if someone else is doing it.

Ya gotta love these Obama libs...

They have it down to a fine science.

the feral blacks, unable to exist in a civilized society, have reverted to the African segregation and the village.

whites or asians are not permitted in the feral enclaves

“”””The new rules, a top demand of civil-rights groups, will require cities and towns all over the country to scrutinize their housing patterns for racial bias””””

Just like always... the affluent, clean, safe, well maintained neighborhoods will be mostly white.
The ghetto, crime-ridden, trashy, drug dealing sewers will be mostly colored.

That is the truth. If you flip it, mix it up, forcefully change it to be ‘even’, it will return to the way it was in ten years.

Thanks to the Supremes one-two punch on Obamacare ruling that day, the lesser known “Texas Fair Housing” ruling. Of course, the Marxist Obama Co. was encouraged.

Now let’s see how the FED is going to enforce such fair housing act. All your data will be fair game, how else would THEY determine if your city/neighborhood meet the quota? To each and every neighborhood, with you and near you.

And you hope those ‘fair housing’ would start with where those black robes live.

I have said for a long time that people have a choice to stay in cities filled with liberals or leave them. It certainly wasn’t an original idea on my part.

If they value their jobs and money more than the lives of their wives, husbands and children, I really have no pity for them. It sucks that thats the way it is but thats the way it is. Either leave these rathoules, suburban ratholes included, or wait to be robbed, raped and killed at the hands of liberals.

For thousands of years people fled warzones with the clothes on their backs. It can be done.

-——destroying——

transient change that will revert once he is gone

we can only hope that the conservatives that consider their principle and self esteem who didn’t vote and got him elected, won’t fail their duty and get Bernie Sanders elected
