re: #130 palomino

As with so many defenders of all cops (and pseudo-cops like Zimmerman), you’re missing a much larger point. Something was seriously wrong just beneath the surface in Ferguson as far as cop-citizen relations. .

He makes what I think is a great point about federal housing programs bringing low income people into communities. And he says urban liberals encourage the poor being moved out of the communities they want to live in.

From the Sailer post: “… Poor blacks are the biggest Hot Potato in modern America.

So they are offloading poor blacks on the less powerful, such as residents of second rate suburbs and of undistinguished small towns. But for this process, in which trillions of dollars of real estate values are at stake, to proceed smoothly without complaints from the less well connected about what is coming their way, it’s important to Control Discourse, to periodically demonize various minor league white people for engaging in pattern recognition. …”
