It's all a part of "The Plan." Barry is afraid of blacks losing control of DC.

We demand they give jobs to Ward 8 people regardless of their cultural situation.

Even after he was called on his racist "gaffe," when he should no longer have been speaking "off the cuff," but rather have been more wary, and choosing his words carefully, he didn't shy away from saying something as patently absurd - and still racist - as this!

Rather, he is now also accusing these shopkeepers (who only "happened" to be Asian "initially") of denying jobs to locals (from Ward 8) - for "cultural" reasons. So he is in effect still claiming that the shopkeepers are "culturally" (a code word for "ethnically") different from the locals.

Further, he accuses the shopkeepers of withholding jobs. I wonder: Does he expect these shopkeepers to somehow - "magically" - create jobs ex nihilo? Or wouldn't they have to instead stop giving them preferentially to some unidentified others (probably actual trusted family members)?

Regards,

When will the responsible intelligent blacks stand up to these racebaiters? Seems like the street always comes out no matter how high they move up the ladder. Here is a low life drug addicted politician who continues to get reelected. mindnumbing

Asians didn’t own slaves in America.
In fact, quite a few Asians were indentured servents up until WWI.
Most are not in the evil 1% catagory.
Most are not rich bankers or CEOs.
In otherwords,they are not “whitey” or “the jews”
So,why the hate?

why the hate?
It’s hard to explain.. They like to work, they make money off of selling lottery, Salems, 40’s and fifths in the worst parts of town. The employ their family members to keep costs down, they get married and they’re happy church going people.

They’re not afraid and they don’t like being robbed.

Blacks in DC want a minority to be able to push around.. The hispanics don’t take it, the gays are finally starting to push back and the asians are up next.

That city is slowly being rebuild by people with money and it’s becoming a more livable city but it’s also too expensive for those living on free Obama money, “disability” or no-show school district and metro jobs which is big part of the DC culture.
When I lived in the district, nobody and I mean NOBODY had a legit car registration (including inspections)nobody had legit cable and nobody paid any parking tickets. Clean license plates were better than gold. The process to evict someone in DC can take as long as 18 months so you pretty much don’t have to pay rent, move and start all over again.

I remember that a roommate was helping people out with their taxes and said people without jobs and income were walking in expecting to walk out with cash and got pissed when they were told that they needed a job and to be paying taxes to file a return. Truth was, he didn’t want to start up a form and tell people they owed money on their under the table job and winnings from the numbers.

"We demand they participate in community affairs. We demand they give jobs to Ward 8 people regardless of their cultural situation. That's as American as apple pie."

I dunno, it sounds like threats and extortion to me.

The hatred of these race pimps never stops amazing me ,, you’re right .. asians (Chinese) were sold as slaves/indentured servants at auction in San Francisco as late as 1917.

Do you remember when this drug-addled, DIMocRAT loser got out of prison? His supporters sent busloads of them selves to the prison and escorted this criminal back to the WDC area. barry was then elected to the city council where he remains. These fools run the WDC government. Most of these DIMocRAT felons are actively either indicted or under investigation by the Feds. Truly shameful.

Barry sounds like Mugabe in Zimbabwe. Mugabe took away farms from white families and gave them to his cronies in the army. Food production went to zilch.

It seems we have more than one Crazy Barry in D.C.

So,why the hate?
_____________________________

Probably because they look at the result instead of the problem.

The Asian’s probably do look at blacks funny and don’t trust the blacks. If you are innocent and upstanding, it would be annoying.

Not all blacks are out to rob or do harm but there are some who are and instead of trying to slap the bad apples into line, or clean up the issues within the black community—it is easier to be the angry and insulted victim.

Some are just plain old race-baiters and power seekers and it serves them well to keep the focus on anybody else but their own. They don’t want the race problem to go away.

If these pretenders really cared, they would quit running around looking for any table to play that race card at and instead start focusing on what they can do to change the black community.

They are hating over peoples reactions to them but people have reason to react as they do. Many haven’t been scoring well on their conduct...look and listen to much of the rap.

It is time to put that race card away and only use it for egregious situations.

Barry won his primary and is unopposed in the general, so, once again, he's in like Flynn (with apologies to the Irish).

Marion Barry along with demagogues like Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton are part of the “failure racket”. They need and want down and out blacks. They derive their power from them. If that base vanishes, their power base (i.e. “the mob”) vanishes. Asians moving into the neighborhood starting with nothing but hard work, improve their life and work their way up the ladder. Can’t have that; it puts a lie to the race baiters plea.

expecially when the Mom and Pops employ only family members and work 24/7 to get ahead in life

Marion ain't seen a real “food desert” until his peeps muscle out the few entrepreneurs willing to try to run businesses in the urban jungle

That’s exactly it.

They threaten the whole basis of power for the left/democRats - that minorities are inherently handicapped in this country and need the ‘rats in order to succeed.

I live in a military community. Our county has the second-highest percentage of Asians in Missouri, and some of the highest percentages of blacks and Hispanics outside the major urban areas of our state.

I know for a fact that Asians and blacks and Hispanics can get along. Our mayor is black, as is one of our city aldermen. Our former mayor is married to a Korean and one of our current aldermen is married to a Filipina. Yes, our politicians fight, but race has little or nothing to do with those fights.

Race baiters need to get blasted for their bigotry.
