I think an apartment building, possibly section 8, is going up on the 8 wooded acres behind my house. We’re going to try to sell before it gets started.

When they talk about “wealthy” neighborhoods, they’re talking about the middle class. Never mind that all these middle class communities have the exact percentage of minorities as the population. And the minorities qualify for the mortgages because they work. This guy wants welfare people living in middle class neighborhoods.

I think the guy is trying to start a race war so he can declare martial law. He may get his chance. When section 8 housing starts popping up all over the place and welfare recipients move in it’ll be time to do something. I hope Abbott has the guts to lead a secession of Texas.

Always found it odd how integrated the Texas suburbs are. In the NYC metro area, middle class whites are a bit less amenable towards Hispanics and blacks moving into their communities. Not so much outright hostility so much as parochialism and the "cold shoulder."

Something like McKinney would never happen in a suburban community in NY or NJ, because the folks in question would never consider moving to a community where they know they will get the shoulder. Whether it's a good or bad thing depends on one perspective...
