What do you think the next suburb to experience white flight will be? (Chicago: home sales, neighborhood)

Poor example. Tell me if you think the racial makeup of the CTA or USPS is due to racial discrimination. Or you could let it alone.

You said there were no blacks on the Blackhawks and I proved you wrong.

Of course the racial makeup of the CTA or USPS is due to racial discrimination. It is called affirmative action.

I am still waiting for that annoying liberal manigault to respond to this. i would be interested to hear his take on affirmative action in 2009.

I don't believe that the makeup of the employees at either place has anything to do with affirmative action. And, of course, affirmative action is not racial discrimination. This thread has certainly strayed.

Affirmative action is not racial discrimination?! Maybe you think affirmative action is a good form of racial discrimination, but it is racial discrimination none the less. Anyone that knows the true definition of discrimination knows this.

Ok..Ok. This thread has went WAY off track!! The point of this thread was to talk about the next chicago suburb that might have white or as some posters said, wealth flight in the near future, not blacks working on the CTA.

I'll give my assessment of the parts of Oak Lawn around 95th and Cicero since I disagree with the poster as well. I'd say anything near that intersection that is south or west is perfectly fine. Anything north east of that intersection is also likely fine. I'm not even sure how to assess the area north east of that intersection. There's the trailer park that has been around for several years, Hometown, Christ Hospital, Target, Home Depot, Jewel, and a giant park with new ballfields that was created a few years ago. Then there's the neighborhood in Oak Lawn north of Jewel, south of Hometown, west of Pulaski, and east of the previously mentioned park. I would say that small area has some of the nicer homes in Oak Lawn. If anything I would say that area of Oak Lawn has actually improved the past decade.

Breaking News - Obama can't walk on water, but the bees are still making honey, thanks to his election victory. I heard they were going to strike if he lost!
