[quote=Anonymous]I know good people who live in public housing, including Potomac Gardens and the Hopkins apartments, who are victimized by the crime even more than the people like me who live nearby -- and, yes, some of them are even under the age of 65! If you don't want to be called racists, then stop talking about these places as if *everyone* living in them were vermin. 12:17, you said you grew up in a good building with people who cared so you know that it's an overgeneralization to say that the people who live there made them slums. Did you make your building a slum? Well neither did the kids who attend the tutoring program where I volunteer. So let's address the crime problem without demonizing every young person who calls public housing home. Because a lot of them, like 12:17, don't deserve to be labeled criminals. Differentiate, people, differentiate![/quote]
