This was tried back in 1967 ~ they burned down Detroit.

Been no change since that time.

Didn't work so well in Chicago in 1968 either. There are still parts of the City that have never been re-built and IMO serve as a "reminder."

Watts happened because of white cops aggressively targeting blacks, not because of corrupt politicians per se.

Detroit had riots in 1943 and 1967.
