Public housing protests

by Erick on April 25, 2007

Remind me again why we apologized for eugenics? Stuff like this drives me irrationally crazy.

The protest was intended to focus attention on two issues: a requirement that able-bodied residents of public housing either work 30 hours a week or attend school; and the pending demolition of the last remaining public housing projects, which are to be replaced with mixed-income communities.

How about this: if you are that damn lazy, get out of the house my money helped build and starve. If you want everything from society and don’t actually want to participate, please hop a buss to Savannah, tie three cinder blocks around you, and walk due east toward the rising sun. Keep walking. Don’t stop at the waters edge.

So if the husband works and the mother stays home to take care of the infiant child they shouldn’t be allowed to keep their public housing?

Oh, I think that would be acceptable Common Sense, but that is not really the totality of the protest. Some people just don’t want to work.

Making children is a responsibility, and one you should pay for yourself.

Hey CS, how many husband-wife-kid families are actually in public housing?

“Remind me again why we apologized for eugenics? ”

Um, ’cause breeding people like cattle is wrong. Duh.

And congratulations on making a potentially legitimate post into a racist screed.

And was this post written by a 6 year-old?

Nicki, are you always wound this tight, or do you just check your sense of humor in at the door?

“Um, ’cause breeding people like cattle is wrong. Duh.”

Well I’ll be. That’s not what them folk at the university learned me. They says we ain’t nothin but a buncha hounddawgs.

“And was this post written by a 6 year-old?”

Nicki, I’ve never met you, but you sure don’t sound like a 6 year old.

;-) Nothin but love.
