No need. The leeches will create new ghettos and it's easy enough to predict where they will be.

No thanks.

Usually prefer more educated responses.

Bless your heart.

YOU were the one who brought up "fear of brown and black people". As for your inane comment referring to my supposed fear of other classes---stop twisting my words.

When talking about economic classes of people---pay attention!---once again I'll explain it to you---it has nothing to do with race, religion or ethnicity. Low class criminal lowlife types come in every race, religion and ethnicity---seriously, you didn't know this?

You are fortunate that none of the Section 8 dwellers in your supposed utopian neighborhood are all well-behaved people who take excellent care of their properties. You must know that that is not the norm.

The level of apathy and stupidity of the average American as it relates to government control and freedom from government is mind numbing.

Tell us all about the demographics in your neighborhood. We'll wait.

But yes, I'm wrong and full of nonsense. Middle-class suburbanites are dying to have poor people from the hood moved into their neighborhoods. In fact, I can't imagine why they moved to ever-remote suburbs in the first place, since what they really want is to live amongst the "fair housing" set. How could I ever have thought otherwise?
Good job with trying to personal attack and do some fear mongering.

You're right, because I was the one who realized what this thread was really about, and since pointing that out a number of fear mongering posters have proved me right.

As for who lives in my neighborhood, I have never claimed that people that are on section 8 vouchers don't live near me. I actually don't worry about the income levels of my neighbors. But you keep thinking nonwhite poor people are out to get you.

^Wrong! You have no argument so you twist words.

Where did I ever say that "non-white poor people" were out to get me? You should be ashamed for trying to put words in other people's mouths---considering that it was YOU who brought up the whole "fear of black and brown" people issue. Since no one else said that, it is clear that you must have an issue when it comes to skin color. If anything, I pointed out that lowlife criminal types come in every race, religion and ethnicity. It's sad that you only focus on "black and brown" people when discussing this issue.

The way you write and bend over backwards to defend all Section 8 tenants, suggests that you don't live near any of them. If you are being truthful, consider yourself lucky that the ones near you haven't caused problems for the rest of the neighborhood.

Do you own property? Would you willingly rent it to Section 8 tenants, all the while knowing that you won't be able to pre-screen them the way you would be able to screen others who aren't on Section 8? You can pre-screen non-Section 8 tenants to see if they have good credit and no criminal record but you can't do that with Section 8 tenants. Think long and hard before you answer this question.

It's easy to hurl insults at those of us who don't want to rent to Section 8 tenants when it is someone else's property instead of your own.

I don't think there's any reason to keep bothering with this guy. He has to be just trying to wind people up. Or he has mental problems. Or perhaps both. I'm putting him on ignore.
