I grew up on the west side of Flint, it was a great cityin the 50’s and 60’s. It is mostly democrat, and this crisis is mostly caused by democrats. Sucks to be them.

The mayor thinks lead in the water is ‘racial injustice’? Didn’t this happen under her watch?

Weaver {Flint Mayor} also praised Clinton for highlighting the crisis as an example of racial injustice. “If the kids in a rich suburb of Detroit had been drinking contaminated water and being bathed in it, there would have been action,” Clinton said during Sunday night’s debate.

“The Secretary was exactly right,” Weaver said Tuesday. “We are a predominantly African American community. We also have 40 percent unemployment, so it’s a class issue too. If this were a more affluent community, I think the response would have been different.”
