It’s a tale of two Brooklyns.

Kings County led the city’s massive population growth over the past decade with a 9.2 percent jump — higher than any other borough, according to data released by the U.S. Census Bureau.

Oh, noes, those evil white people that invented everything that created the modern world.

[Bayard]

Must be white trash.

Looks like Boston's South End

Is this the much condemned “gentrification” where you can walk around a neighborhood and not get shot?

[Clemenza]

Nope. Hipsters and Hasidim.

What is causing blacks to leave? Housing prices due to gentrification? And where are they going?

[Chode]

White residents saw their ranks climb by 8.4 percent increase while black residents saw an 8.7 percent decline.

[Mears]

Beautiful…..I remember when those places were considered dumps.

The yuppies are moving to Brooklyn? Did Manhattan get too pricey for them?

[Clemenza]

Housing prices and rents have gone up considerably. Blacks migrating down south.

[Clemenza]

Yes, started about 25 years ago.

[Old Yeller]

Looks like Cliff Huxtable’s place.

“Exit” as in “move to another borrough” or as in “rest in peace”?

[Cyclops08]

I’m calling bull on this story. Crime and murder in the city are rampant and it is against the law to protect yourself. The city is self destructing, whites would not flock to that hell-hole.

[Arcadian Empire]

Them there White devils.

Don’t be passive. Question their concept of racism. Ask them who inspired it. Ask them whether or not they were influenced by Marxism. Tell them that you doubt that Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Larry Elder, Sheriff David Clarke and Colonel Allen West would find such activities racist. Ask them why their concept of racism should take precedence over the above-mentioned gentlemen’s.

Developers are salivating and will swarm in when the time is right.
