Habitat officials said they were surprised by the vehemence of the opposition.

I'm not.

Me neither - People don't want the dregs forcibly placed directly in their neighborhood.

There is (was) a nice little community of town homes not too far from me - clean, crime free, strong property values...that is, until HUD came in and bought up some of the units to sell them to a bunch of dregs. Now, it's like a little ghetto and the original property owners can't sell to get out.

One family I know puts it this way: "These people don't work, so they sleep all day and are up all night. Strange cars come in and out, in and out all night long while the ghetto music blasts. WE have to sleep so we can get up in the morning to go to work - and if you ask nicely for them to be quiet, the response is 'Get the f--- outta here, cracker, before I f--- you up.' "

Nice neighbors.
