[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH went to Memphis recently; he said it looked apocalyptic and unsafe. I think that many on this board have no idea how bad poverty and crime are around the country. It is like you all live in a bubble of "I am a self-made person who earns a paltry 500K or less than 1M per year." and it is "their" fault they are poor and crime-ridden. Us vs. them mentality is so prevalent on dcum, particularly from self-proclaimed super-liberals who would not step foot at Orioles stadium lest they have to see a poor person in Baltimore. You talk and talk, and you are honesty worse than those you call red necks; they at least do not hide their racism if they are racist. When we wanted to elect Bernie, what did you do? Call him a crazy old man.[/quote] NP who has lived in various parts of the country (including the Deep South). Memphis hasn’t been a nice city for a long time. I can recognize poverty and blight pretty well. Baltimore is up there in terms of those measures. The politicians can’t get out of their own way to allow growth in the city.[/quote]
