  • The most racially segregated cities in the US.

    Interestingly, not a single one of them is in the South.

    Doesn't surprise me at all... I lived in the Northeast for several years and NYC was the most racist-separatist city I've ever lived in... Its not only race but ethnicity... Puerto Ricans don't like the Mexicans and the Jamaicans don't like the blacks... the Hasidic hate everyone without pig tails... Everyone has their own neighborhood and you better not get caught fucking around in one of them...

      Thats because in the south we don't segregate in the cities, we segregate city by city.

          No bias at all in the articles.
          "Between my wife and I, we work 3 jobs in one household so we can live as far as possible from Section 8 housing. Keep your brave new world, liberal views to yourself. I don't want section 8 anywhere near me. I don't want anyone receiving any type of government assistance living near me," wrote Steve Arlo. "I pay THOUSANDS of dollars a year in Federal, State, City and property taxes to keep it away from my neighborhood. I'll say it. They don't deserve to live in or near my neighborhood. When are we going to stop this 'free money' mentality? I don't care how horrible their neighborhood is. You made your bed now sleep in it. Remember, neighborhoods are made up of those that live in them."

          For the besieged white subdivision dweller, the American dream means freedom from society's poor and black.
          They guy inferred "poor" plenty, but never race. Hmm...

            Cleveland is very segregated. The dividing line seems to be downtown, but slowly shifting west. The probability of getting mugged increases exponentially when the street names switch from a W to an E.

              What I'm seeing from those pictures, is that black people, Mexicans and so forth don't like living in the country.

                Probably because when they start their bullshit out in the sticks they are found in the ditch with their face blown off, compliments of the neckbeards.

                  Yes, It seems to me that the majority of our segregated groups in this area are mainly separated city by city, not within the cities.

                    Fuck yeah, its catching on.


                    And it has always seemed to me like the South is less segregated than other places. Hell, just the other week I was in San Diego and I didn't see a single black person where we were at. I also saw very few Mexicans.... which I found surprising considering San Diego is a famously Hispanic city.

                      There's plenty in Kulo Vista, Nasty City and Impossible Beach.

                            I blame the "Great Society", personally.

                            Meanwhile, in Georgia, Black Legislators are trying to dissolve heavy white populated cities...
                            Black GA Legislators Sue to Dissolve ‘Super-Majority White Cities’

                            The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports:

                            The Georgia Legislative Black Caucus filed a lawsuit Monday against the state of Georgia seeking to dissolve the city charters of Dunwoody, Sandy Springs, Johns Creek, Milton and Chattahoochee Hills. Further, the lawmakers, joined by civil rights leader the Rev. Joseph Lowery, aim to dash any hopes of a Milton County.

                            The lawsuit, filed in a North Georgia U.S. District Court Monday, claims that the state circumvented the normal legislative process and set aside its own criteria when creating the “super-majority white ” cities within Fulton and DeKalb counties. The result, it argues, is to dilute minority votes in those areas, violating the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution….

                            Lead attorney Jerome Lee, of Taylor Lee & Associates, said the suit is novel.

                            “The Voting Rights Act forbids a state from doing anything that affects the voting rights of minorities, except with a permissible purpose,” he said, citing the redistricting that takes place when the census documents population shifts. “In this case, it’s different because the state actually went outside the normal redistricting process and created these cities that have no meaningful state purpose.”

                            According to the 2010 census, Fulton County is 44.5 percent white and 44.1 percent black. About 54 percent of DeKalb County residents are black, and 33.3 percent are white.

                            Sandy Springs, created in 2005, is 65 percent white and 20 percent black. Milton, formed a year later, is 76.6 percent white and 9 percent black. Johns Creek, also formed that year, is 63.5 percent white and 9.2 percent black. Chattahoochee Hills, formed in 2007, is 68.6 percent white and 28 percent black, while Dunwoody, created in 2008, is 69.8 percent white and 12.6 percent black.

                              Or because many of them are much like cockroaches. They hang around where they know they can get a free ride. The rural areas are conservative and will make those lowlife scum work for a living.
