I suspect something bad has happened.

Yes, it always has been, but now more so. Why go into the hood to tangle with gang bangers? You'll just lose your job/life/pension over it. Better to guard the freshly dipped donuts.Screw_Michigan wrote: ↑Sun Jun 13, 2021 1:01 amWhich is basically standard operating procedure anyway.smackaholic wrote: ↑Fri May 14, 2021 2:14 am Now they are standing guard a few miles away at the Krispy Kreme, waiting for their shift to end.
Poor pigs. Can't murder unarmed suspects pre-trial anymore, so they throw temper tantrums. Fuck 'em.smackaholic wrote: ↑Sun Jun 13, 2021 3:15 am Yes, it always has been, but now more so.

There are plenty of people that are stuck living there that desperately need a strong police presence in order to get shit under control, but fukk them I guess. Not all balck lives matter, I suppose.

At the time that the water source was switched it was run by an emergency manager appointed by Republican governor Rick Snyder.smackaholic wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 8:41 pmJust curious, was flint run by Republicans?Diego in Seattle wrote:We saw how much you Republicans care about what happens in black communities when the #FlintWaterCrisis went down.smackaholic wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 3:33 am Go ahead and yuck it up.

It wasn't the city council that switched water sources w/o doing their due diligence.Left Seater wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 9:43 pm Correct. Because the liberal city council couldn’t handle their own shit.
Decent summary of the issue.

Bottom line is there is plenty of blame to go around, but most of it should rest with the city council.
Yes, the city was deep in the red.Left Seater wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 10:32 pm The city couldn’t manage itself. Period. Full Stop.
Nice try on moving the goal posts but the city itself shoulders much of the blame.
Right back to killing that straw man eh?Diego in Seattle wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 10:42 pmYes, the city was deep in the red.Left Seater wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 10:32 pm The city couldn’t manage itself. Period. Full Stop.

But that doesn't justify acting negligently.
Or in your world does being in debt justify killing citizens?
What part of the city being driven broke & making choices that kill people being different things don't you understand? The city being broke had nothing to do with the EM changing water sources w/o doing his due diligence first. Staying with the original water source a little longer while testing & treating the water lines would have saved those lives. Unless you can show exigent circumstances that would show staying on the old source would have killed more people you're talking out your ass to coddle your party's incompetent racists.Left Seater wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 10:51 pmRight back to killing that straw man eh?Diego in Seattle wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 10:42 pmYes, the city was deep in the red.Left Seater wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 10:32 pm The city couldn’t manage itself.

I have already said there was plenty of blame to go around. Some should fall on the Governor. But the most should fall on the liberals who ran that city for years and ran it into the ground.
I will leave your inability to format a post aside.Diego in Seattle wrote: ↑Mon Jun 14, 2021 11:09 pm The city being broke had nothing to do with the EM
So keep moving those goal posts and killing those straw men.Before the 2014 water switch, the Flint City Council had backed a plan to join the KWA pipeline as a new water source,

I moved to a public housing project in Hartford when I was 7.
It was probably 90% minority, pretty even mix between blacks/PRs when I got there. It was probably 98% minority when we moved shortly after my 18th birthday.
So yeah, I do have some experience.
If that was true Snyder & his fellow criminals never would have been charged.Left Seater wrote: ↑Tue Jun 15, 2021 1:43 am If the city handles their own business no worries the others get involved.

Tough to even blame the gov here. It is just bureaucracy doing what bureaucracies do, bumbling shit up.Left Seater wrote: ↑Tue Jun 15, 2021 2:37 am Are you really this dumb?
As I have said repeatedly, the Governor deserves some blame.
However had the Democrats running the city not bankrupt it, no one else gets involved.
Liberal Dems fucked it up and a GOP Governor made it worse.
But keep trying to show how the Dems aren’t to blame at all. It just proves you to be the hack you are.

I doubt the governor or anyone else said "Hey look! Balck folks. Let's poison their water supply."

Try again.
Why can’t you accept the fact that your beloved Democrats drove Flint into the fucking ground, you fuckless shit cramp?
Whether they were financially competent or not is irrelevant. The first issue at hand is whether the person who commanded that the water source be switched did so w/o doing his due diligence. The second is whether the governor displayed gross negligence in ignoring the citizens' pleas for help with their being poisoned by the actions/inactions of his appointed EM.You are one seriously stupid fuck. Had they been even 1% competent, they would have continued to be in charge of their water - like 99% of the rest of the country’s cities.
That is all you need right there. The city council bankrupt the city. If they had handled their business, no one else gets involved.
