Yes it does, but you know Chinese people don't have to live in Chinatown, right? It is just a name, not a regulation. So should we remove all names from all neighborhoods?

I think you should identify why your local governments mistakenly think anybody would be like-minded such that they insularly want to live with people who look and sound like them. That's not socially just.

And "Jade District"? You must think they all love jade.

The local government has no control over that. People live where they want to live in this country, and often times people like to live around like-minded people. I bet you even you live around like-minded people by choice.

The businesses in that area chose the name Jade District, so I assume they at least like the name. It helps with marketing.

Oh he does this from time to time, it is humorous and he hasn't reached that level of annoyance that earns someone a spot on my ignore list.

They sound self-loathing, urbanlife78, and you're down with their racial ghetto-ization.

If a leftist reacted to rhetorical and logical challenge by burying his or her head in the sand, it wouldn't be a first.

Chinatown a slur? I'm guessing the "Chinese" people living there never got the memo that it's NOT PC to use that "slur'. LOL!
