Add Atlanta to the list.
What city haven’t they destroyed?
Democrats destroyed Detroit and Atlanta? How about blacks destroyed Detroit and Atlanta? Democrats run Vermont but it hasn’t been destroyed yet as far as I can tell. Maybe they’ll import millions of blacks to destroy that too.
True about the corruption. I heard a building contractor talk about all the payoffs you had to make in Atlanta to get contracts. He stopped working in the city. He came back when Andy Young was mayor and said the inspectors had stopped asking for bribes. Young was the best mayor Atlanta has had IMO.
Also, back in the 80s-90s bars were supposed be closed on Sundays. They stayed open under Jackson, shut down when Young was mayor, then opened up again when Jackson got back in power. It was pretty clear there were payoffs because the bars operated in violation of the law with no fear whatsoever under Jackson.
And as far as corruption, don’t even talk about Bill Campbell, the worst mayor in the history of Atlanta.
Ha. Get in line. Heck, Milwaukee was once led by a socialist.
How the Democratic Party Ruined Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore, New York City, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland, Denver, New Orleans, Miami, Houston, Dallas, Philadelphia, .......
let me count the ways....

GA FReeper ping.
How did they miss Burlington VT, both Portlands (ME and OR), Pittsburgh, Providence RI, Boston, and Seattle?
All run by Democrats (or socialists) for decades. And, just across the river, Windsor, ON, same latitude, longitude, days of sunshine, average temps as Detroit, run by socialists and labor unions - CAR MANUFACTURING labor unions at that, with work rules the UAW could only dream of - you know, Windsor, the beautiful City of Roses? THAT Windsor?
Are you really sure that it's Democrats that are the problem?
You can pretty much date when the destruction of formerly great cities across the country by looking at the date the last Republican mayor left office. In the Old South, you go back to the date the last segregationist mayor left office.
Fixed it
Large cities attract liberals.
Atlanta City Govt is totally run by blacks. They are so corrupt its almost laughable. The white flight from Atlanta to the burbs and beyond is lengthy and ongoing. Several municipalities have incorporated into their own cities and gotten free of Atlanta and its taxes. The current mayor Kasim Reed is a black muslim who has announced Atlanta as a welcoming community and is bringing in muslims through Oslime as fast as he can.
Black Democrats in action. I hope no one was surprised by any of this. It’s SOP for them - massive corruption, constant calls for restrictions on gun ownership for the law abiding, blatant hypocrisy, tax increases, etc.
Democrats destroy cities, and it seems that Black Democrats are the worst when it comes to cronyism and corruption. You see it in Atlanta and other cities, as well as countries in Africa where Blacks take over from Whites. And, lest it be overlooked, just look at what Obama has done to this country in 7.5 years. Laws are repeatedly ignored by the Federal Government, judges orders are ignored, illegals stream across the border and the border patrol is told to not enforce the laws. And it goes on and on. So, yea, Democrats are bad, but they don’t hold a candle to Black Democrats cause the Black Dems can always claim racism to justify their actions.
How the Democratic Party Ruined {Insert City Here}
Evidently the Black churches use The Communist Manifesto rather than the bible in their services. Not one of them seems to have the slightest interest in any issue beyond race, poverty, and "social justice." Hey, maybe they worship Father Coughlin!
