They used to call this block-busting and it was prosecuted.
The price of single family home just went through the roof.
I’ll chip in so Mansions can be converted in Martha’s Vineyard to house 300 illegals at a time...
I predict mass emigration to the suburbs and a shrinking tax base.

This seems like a non-sequitur -- unless the journalist is trying to express the opinion that blacks are too stupid or too lazy to ever acquire ownership of a single-family house. Personally, I have see many smart hard-working blacks who bought lovely homes in fine neighborhoods.

Zoning is what created this “housing crisis” in the first place, get rid of zoning, gets rid of the need for “affordable housing” because the free market will create the all the housing that is demanded.

These people are crazed.
25 people, two bedrooms and one toilet.
What could go wrong?

Freedom of Association?
That’s just a nice way of saying “racist”.
We don’t do Freedom of Association here.
They will force White Christians out and move three Muslim families of ten people into these homes. This will be a big improvement over the mud huts in Somalia.
The only thing more disturbing than this policy are the comments on the SF Gate article/website. Then again, these are the same people who vote for their own city to turn into a $hithole.
Democrat is the Islamic sh&thole party.
Banning single family zoning creates disease and violence.
All you single mothers on welfare, the Democrat Party has brought in your replacements. The party is over.
Share your home with the women beaters and daughter rapers.
Progressives in SoCal have been inflicting the same thing on Orange County. They do it quietly, rezoning established neighborhoods to high density.
The resulting overcrowding makes SoCal cities increasingly undesirable places to live, except to the waves of 3rd world imports that our open borders rulers prefer to American natives.
“It’s said now that people will be shorter in height
They can fit twice as many in the same building site
They say it’s alright
Beginning with the tenants of the town of Harlow
In the interest of humanity, they’ve been told they must go”
