And I don't. I think it's an ugly policy. I'm glad a city can't do that anymore. And policies prohibiting people of a certain race from living in certain cities/towns, it had nothing to do with "open borders". It had everything to do with "we think those people are inferior". It was the fear of Blacks moving to an area, regardless if their were committing crimes or not.

I'll go live wherever I want to go. If said persons there don't like it, the only thing they can do to stop me is kill me. And that's illegal. I will go to places that I see fit, not where someone wants me to go to.

Yes really. People just don't want homogenous communities of whites to exist out of spite.

For example, I've been watching for years "diverse" people drive 20 miles past at least 3 diverse Supermarkets to be seen at the white community's supermarket out of spite. They even move to the community out of spite. There should be official policy to prevent a community from having spiteful neighbors moving in.

And something else. I had to add this to the post you replied to.

I had to bring that up because you mentioned why Whites went to Marysville. You didn't answer why you think more Blacks DIDN'T go to Marysville. I'm mean, it's next door to Port Huron.

It'll be interesting to see if she gets elected. She's certainly achieved the goal candidates have of making her message "stand out" and separate her from others on the ballot. :-/

So I took a Google street view tour of Marysville, wondering why the population is 97% white. It's about 20 miles from Detroit, that has a very large black population.

I thought maybe the housing was outrageously expensive, and so fewer minorities might choose to live there.

Nope. I found a lot of very affordable housing. Some upper middle class, some middle class, and some clearly working class neighborhoods.

My guess is, this woman is not at all alone in her thinking in her town - and that's why she felt so emboldened so state her views publicly in a public forum. Because that's how her neighbors feel, and they're also vocal about it. She's accustomed to speaking this way, and hearing others speak this way.

There's SOMETHING keeping minorities out. And my guess is, it's because the town is pretty verbal about their preferences for white neighbors only.

What purpose would it serve for the minority black population in Port Huron to move to Marysville besides make them a smaller minority in Port Huron and lower homogeneity in Marysville ?

The rich are fairly immune to a change in demographics, the working class not so much.

I can see the concern.

LMAO Finally--an honest politician.

But she didn't even have to be. Just like most hoity-toity Democrat limousine liberals, who crap in their "city council" digs, then go home to their non-diverse zip codes.

Well, the South African Dutch Reformed Church used or interpreted religion to justify apartheid policies, such as referring to black people as hewers of wood and drawers of water, for hundreds of years. It's only since the 80s that they saw the writing on the wall and renounced such racist interpretations.

So folks can use religion to justify almost anything if you're imaginative, which is sad.
