Maybe they will build you people a Mr.Rodgers neighborhood that you can rent for 30 bucks a month!Quit crying that black crap people!Majority of the people that lived in these Projects in New Orleans weren't good people.They were Drug Dealers and people who didn't want to work real jobs just tote their AK-47 up and down the street killing each other and sale crack to their own people

OK, so let me get this straight; when the city decides that it can no longer afford to provide low cost government housing, maybe due to the largest domestic disaster in American history, it is a race issue? Who owned those houses that were demolished? Those not owned by the city, were owned by someone, who barely broke evenby selling that land to private company who now runs the mixed income housing. Sorry the city ran out of money.

Thats not right at all!! And im not even from there!!! Give them their homes back!! I think they wanna get rid off all the projects and move white ppl n the neighborhood. Katrina gave them a reason to do and they tryna sugar code the whole thing. What the woman was sayin basically is that almost everybody thats on HUD and living in the projects are black people....SO!! Aint nothing wrong with living in the projects and gettin assistance. Thats what the shyt is there for.

AND when HUD first came out, it was for white people!! LOL!! But when us black ppl try to benefit from it, theirs a problem, oh it not right!! Fukk that , we pay taxes and if we wanna stay in tha projects, let us. Build them back up and shut tha fukk up about it. I rather b a poor black nigga in the projects happy than b a rich unhappy bitch!! Thats how I feel and I dont give a fukk what anybody says!!
