The program has not been cheap: $19 million to purchase nearly 60 homes, all but 12 outside city limits, and annual rent subsidies of $51 million in 2015 alone. The Sun reported that almost all the beneficiaries are African-American families headed by single mothers.
A caller to a Baltimore talk radio show, identified only as “Horace,” reflected the hostility of white county residents to the Section 8 program. “That is one of the worst programs, this voucher program, because I know personally that a lot of these young ladies have 5, 6 kids,” Horace said, according to an audio tape of the show. “They destroy neighborhoods, look at Liberty Road. They destroy neighborhoods, all up and down Liberty Road.” Liberty Road is a main artery that runs from the city into the county. “What I really took away from this was the fact that in order to get subsidized housing into the suburbs, you have to be sneaky about it,” Robert Strupp, the executive director of Baltimore Neighborhoods Inc., a liberal fair housing advocacy group, told The Sun: Because if they found out about it in advance, they wouldn’t let it happen nytimes.com/2016/08/18/opinion/campaign-stops/can-hillary-manage-her-unruly-coalition.html

I love the quote from the Westchester County executive: As she attempts to draw votes from both of these wings of the Democratic Party, Clinton has good reason for caution. The town of Chappaqua in Westchester County, where the Clintons own a home, happens to be located in the midst of an affordable housing conflict I have written about before. Rob Astorino, the Republican county executive, takes great joy in capitalizing on the issue. In July 2015, Astorino pointedly held a news conference in front of Bill and Hillary Clinton’s home, using affordable housing as a political cudgel to demand: Now, I have a question for Hillary Clinton, who’s in her home today right behind me: does she think she lives in a discriminatory town? I don’t. Does she think that the Obama administration is being very unfair in attacking her own community? I do. But we need to know where Hillary Clinton stands on this issue and she needs to speak up today.

I feel sorry for this kid.
Brayden Cook
Thanks, Obama.
Juan Cooper
lol @ libs flipping their shit when the diversity is forced upon them for a change
Ethan Thompson
It exposes their hypocrisy. If the libs really cared about this stuff they'd pack up and move to the hood.
Robert Stewart
We just leave crosses on the front yard on any section 8 house normally 1 for each occupant. Niggers are notoriously superstitious and still believe in the KKK boogeyman
Blake Perez
Are the Hispanic neighborhoods as bad as the black ones? Like in Detroit for example.
Isaiah Anderson
Hispanic neighborhoods are pretty based, actually. Not gonna lie. I had a flat screen TV delivered to my house when I was away, and they grabbed it and placed it on my front porch just so that nigs would be less likely to steal it, not that that would be very likely anyway.
Blake Morgan
Hispanics are bro-tier and are hard working people. I would consider most of them to be honorary whites
Easton Lee
Whites rioted in Detroit when FDR tried this in the forties.
Gavin Thomas
Really? Tell me more about that story.
Michael Anderson
It depends. There's less random violence. On the other hand, you still have gang graffiti, drug dealing, and burglaries. Not to mention the effect on schools. So it's not as bad as with blacks, but that's not the right question to ask. The right question is: how is it compared to what the original homeowners expected and paid for?
Angel Cruz
Detroit has a Mexicantown and you can see exactly where it starts because the lawns are not buried under litter and the homes are modest but beautifully maintained.
Michael Walker
they're just as bad, if not worse than Blacks. Tons of drug dealing, rape, almost no murder or assault though. Tons of alcoholics andtheir kids are literally niggers, culturally speaking. They wear black people clothing and listen to rap music and their vernacular is a sort of mexinigger hybrid
Lincoln Rivera
Yes they're garbage. Go wonder around El Paso or Brownsville in Google maps. Anyone who says otherwise is one of them or a cuck.

pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/general-article/eleanor-riots/ There were also numerous smaller incidents, including one where a black successfully moved into a white neighborhood and lived there for years before committing suicide, but on the day he moved in his house was surrounded by angry whites and police held people back.
Christopher White
His last act I actually to hand over the internet to the u.n.
Alexander Phillips
yes, fuck hispanics. pic related is USA
fuck off spic shill
Joshua Stewart
>fuck hispanics >posts muzzie tourist trap. D:
Jacob Russell
Happened to my town.
My generation fought back and would meet group of niggers and would fight it out.
We would win every time.
When we passed the torch the kids that came after us wouldnt fight back. They would allow a white kid to get jumped by 5 niggers while other white kids watched and cheered it on.
They tried to imitate them and fit in. They showed no resistance. Thats when I gave up on society.
Evan Stewart
ehh its a 50/50 for me since i live in texas so i have experience with hispanic neighbors
Elijah Hernandez
Gentrification? No way!
Tyler Walker
Yeah, that's cultural appropriation. Stay out, honkey.
Austin Nguyen
A white guy could walk through there with no trouble. Not so in a black 'hood.
