As per city data's website. Now who's making up facts?

and you'd be the first person to put up that sign without shame and without the slightest sense of irony.

In the case of beauty supply stores, many of these are Korean owned and many have actually have blocked Black owned beauty supply stores by boycotting suppliers to block them from selling to any Black owned stores. The same has happened to Black owned grocery stores. But we need to continue to build our own. We need to turn inward and stop asking people who despise us to respect us.

Why Do Koreans Own The Black Beauty Supply Business? | Madame Noire | Black Women's Lifestyle Guide | Black Hair | Black Love#
Your link isn't working for me.
Do you know the history behind why there are so many Jewish owned businesses in black neighborhoods? Many of them live in the very same neighborhoods (or did) and the Koreans moved in as the Jews moved out. Why do you hate business owners in poor black neighborhoods who are not black? Who would provide these services to these neighborhoods if not for the Jews, Asians, etc.? I don't understand the black resentment towards non-black business owners in their neighborhoods. Why is there such a low business ownership amongst blacks in black neighborhoods?
This is a really good article about Jewish/Korean - Black business relations. I hope you actually bother to read it.

Are people in the Cincinnati area particularly racist? There were severe race riots in the past...

Being neither, it wouldn't bother me. If I was, I would rather know where I stand with the moron.

IMO, discrimination like this should not be allowed, even if its on private property. The landlord was concerned about the girl's hair chemicals? WTF? If that's really what this was about, why make it a race thing? Why not just prohibit people from using the pool after using certain types of chemicals?
Ron Paul 'likes' this.

and provide necessary services to these folks. Many of which are Asian Americans and Jewish Americans. Do you really want them pulling out of these neighborhoods? What then? No grocery stores, no delis, no housing to rent, nothing. Yes, poor blacks in ghettos need to rise above their culture so that they have the resources to open their own shops in their neighborhoods.
This is a major problem in poor black communities due to the high crime rate. You just can't get them to locate there, because they get robbed blind and cannot sustain those kinds of losses and remain in business.

The same could be said about trailer parks and poor hillbilly communities. It goes both ways.
