Quite honestly that is one of the nicest parts of Pittsburgh.

Because of the terrain there are many groups of people that stay in their neighborhoods. They have many generations in the same neighborhood and everybody knows how to navigate that neighborhood and how to get downtown and out of town, but can’t get anywhere else in the city. Too confusing.

The sad part is that public knowledge that she's a “a race baiting Communist” of the Sal Alinsky school is a resume enhancer in Allegheny county.

Wilson's comments were part of Ms. Mazza's profile of “four movers and shakers who have recently returned to Pittsburgh”

Pittsburgh has done a remarkable job of re-inventing itself after all the heavy industry which was its historical economic backbone was government-regulated out of the US.
Pittsburgh is now frequently cited as among the most livable cities in America, among other accolades.
However, if this ignorant, obnoxious, Marxist twit is truly a mover and shaker in Pittsburgh then the city will face fundamental transformation pressures to become a craphole like so many other liberal cities in America have become.

This is the first time I ever heard of someone complaining there was not enough crime in their city. She should move to Baltimore.

What is the "nicest part" of Pittsburgh?

You continued with;

Ok. WHAT neighborhoods

???

Too confusing? Like, less than clear as to what particular "part" of Pittsburgh you are talking about? Unless you meant that "too many white people" was a "part"?

Sneaks, thanks for the pingy...

Boycott, my guess Girlfriend doesn’t live in a bubble...more likely a gentrified flat in Shadyside; somewhere “north of Forbes;” or the Southside flats. I doubt she lives anywheres near “diversity.”

I grew up with enough “diversity” to last my lifetime (in what is now known as West Oakland). Around the corner from a (long gone now it’s a senior citizen bldg) section 8 apt bldg. Oh the “diverse” stories I could tell.

Racism straight up. The statement is not “inartful”. It is racist.

A few months in the more diverse neighborhoods of Philly, Baltimore, Camden, or Richmond would knock a little sense in her, I think.

Back to Mazza: “(Wilson) was simply making the comment that increasing diversity here would be a good thing

What is the evidence that increasing diversity, anywhere, is a "good thing"?

I took a wrong turn off Rte 70 into Camden about 2 years ago and swore I was in Nogales, Mexico.

Yep. Pittsburgh's unofficial motto: You can't get there from here.

And that anyway has nothing to do with race. It has everything to do with Pittsburgh's hills, valleys, and rivers. Miss a turnoff for a particular bridge, and the next thing you know you're in Ohio. Check out this short Pittsbughese video:
