Once again my jingoistic counterpart has outdone himself with a comment to the point where he deserves an article. I really love his concept of The Woman, and don’t miss being The Man one bit.
Indeed they [gated communities] are [the key to the future] James!
Because the new American Dream is to be able to afford to isolate yourself from the sort of multicultural "utopia" The Woman has planned for us. Where the Leftie elites intend to shelter themselves. Like Mr. Bob did. Yes, even Mr. Bob, an accomplished black man, didn't want to live in Black Run America (or "BRA"-a wholly owned subsidiary of The Woman) and therefore sought refuge in a Hebrew enclave. Every other suburban neighborhood outside those exclusive gated communities is just one section-eight voucher from turning into the Ghetto, aren't they? Like what happened to Ferguson, MO; the change once started occurs quickly.
The general coarsening of the language and manners you described in your community is merely the result of middle class white people reacting to having to interact with Ghetto blacks on a daily basis, people with a proclivity for being hostile and uncivil (AKA keeping it "real"). Is you stupid white boy?
The whites are acting the way they believe they must in order to be understood and to endure in the regime they find themselves living and working under. The Woman considers Ghetto blacks to be a revolutionary street army that can be used to threaten Her political enemies with intolerable chaos. We all know that middle class white people, especially middle class white women, have a very low tolerance of chaos in their lives AND that Ghetto blacks are rather accomplished at creating chaos.
So any unenlightened white folks who dare to oppose The Woman back down pretty quickly when threatened with black protestors from the Ghetto (and the supporting Hebrews with suits and briefcases; people who are likewise accomplished at creating chaos in the lives of the people they target). Losing is not an option for The Woman; She is resolved to prevail and have Her way. Currently She is demonstrating that she is willing to risk starting a race war in order to ensure Her Party wins the upcoming national election.
"A racially integrated community is a chronological term timed from the entrance of the first black family to the exit of the last white family."
-Saul Alinsky
“That perennial question ‘Does the End justify the Means?’ is meaningless as it stands; the real and only question regarding the ethics of means and ends is, and has always been, “Does this particular end justify this particular means?”
-Saul Alinsky Rules for Radicals 1971, Of Means and Ends, p. 24.
Incidentally Baltimore just accepted about 50,000 section 8 applications for subsidized [free] housing, will be awarding about 25,000, and will then put a hold on intentional urban blight for 6 years. The house next door to mine and 1 across the street are being renovated to receive the poor into our bosom!
Wow! 50.000 Section Eight applications eh? You know, it appears that should the city be unable to find enough poor black families to occupy 50,000 homes, they have plans to fill them up with immigrants from Latin America. vdare.com/articles/can-baltimore-fill-its-urban-barrios-with-aliens-to-save-its-bond-ratings-0
It looks like you'll have a ringside seat for the turf wars James. On reflection it might be a good idea to lobby the city council to change the zoning ordinance to allow you to erect ten foot high concrete and masonry walls around your house on your property line. You know like in Third World countries. That way when you're laying out in the yard catching some sun on a summer day you won't have worry about getting hit with a stray bullet. I'm certain that once folks get a load of your court yard walls they'll want the same for their own homes. You could take advantage of the demand by applying for a grant to start a your own not for profit organization: "Fortifications for Humanity". There's lots of money in not for profits.
No concrete walls necessary JB, the sniper's alcove is sandbagged and the ground floor has been turned into a ghetto bunker, the back steps removed and the back door boarded shut. The interior is a veritable maze of death...
...And Mom told me I would have to leave childish joys behind once becoming the man of a house!
In the Navy SEAL autobiography I recently reviewed the author's description of the houses of the wealthy Somali's was positively 'Dark Age'. Unfortunately setting broken bottles in the top of the wall would leave you open to persecution in the Material States of Media America.
