All you can do is bow you head and shake it back and forth.

This is really puzzling. Prosperity wages but no jobs? Rather like the contradiction the liberals point out between high rates of incarceration and low rates of crime. Obviously racism is the root of both problems.

I have BEEN to Richmond....20 years ago at the latest

It may as well have been Detroit By The Bay..20 years ago.

Even Al Sharpton wont go to Richmond

People don’t deserve jobs unless they can get paid at least $15 an hour. Pull up that ladder fast.

Good news, Bad news.

Good news: We've raised the minimum wage.

Bad news: We can't afford you.

Does each gang own a city council seat?

Why don’t they raise taxes and promote homosexuality ?
With the increased revenue they could expand abortions and gun buy backs

The entire state is a sick, pathetic joke.

Richmond is also the city that wants to seize mortgages by Eminent Domain - don’t know if they’ve done that ...

I shake my head but KNOW those govt workers there are obscenely paid and have obscene retirement, benefits, health care, vacation and time off policies...and STILL have no productivity..

A bloody fistfight broke out among rival gang members at Richmond City Hall on Friday, according to police.

Seven men from different parts of the city brawled in a third-floor suite that houses the city’s Office of Neighborhood Safety around 12:30 p.m. Friday, department director Devone Boggan said.

It's good to see these young men wanting to get involved in local politics. Gives you hope for the next generation and all that.

What??? Didn’t Obummer and the “Experts” tell us that a $10 minimum wage would fix our economy? They wouldn’t lie to us, again, would’ they?

[RC one]

but raising the national minimum wage won’t affect the unemployment rate according to liberals.

[catnipman]

If raising the minimum wage is such a good thing, then why beat around the bush with such small increases? If $12.00/hr is a good thing, then wouldn’t $20.00/hr be even better?

[TigersEye]

Please, Pres. 0bama, take your pen and double this city’s minimum wage. Show them how the magic works!

[smokingfrog]

Hey, hey, hey.

[Conservative4Ever]

Richmond!!!??? WTH?

[TigersEye]

The ONS director said he sees the unarmed brawl as a sign of progress, since the young men involved all have a history of gun violence. “They decided to pick their fists up instead of a gun,” Boggan said.

Bwaaaaaaahahaaaaa!

Momma Boggan dropped Devone on his noggin.

Ahhhh good old Richmond where the Iron Triangle gets NO police service because they are afraid to travel there, where the city council wants to buy mortgages that are in default so people can continue to live in their ruined houses, where a teen age girl can be gang raped on a high school campus during a school dance and the authorities can only say they didn’t know.....I am not surprised.
