[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Housing vouchers are not synonymous with crime. The crime likely happened due to outside people. I have no idea why people who are transplants begrudge people a basic necessity such as housing. Crime happens everywhere, not just one place. [b]While the 7-11 owner mentioned that he was threatened, he was not forcibly hurt nor was his daughter.[/b] Some of the commentary at these community meetings sound like dog whistles with racist undertones. Housing vouchers have nothing to do with the 2-3 crimes happening in Ward 3 every few months. The real crime is the price of housing in this city, the lack of fresh food options and grocery along Connecticut Ave and the lack of employment options for those stuck in minimum wage options. [/quote] So threatening language and fear for one’s safety is not a big deal?[/quote]
