Bridgeport was a nice city to live.As soon as people from New York started moving to Bridgeport.The good hard working residents moved to the suburbs.Bridgeport will never be the same again.

  • Bringing the Black African to North America was a bad idea. Allowing them to stay here and continue breeding after slavery ended was an even worse idea. electing one of them to the White House was the very definition of insanity.

    Take pride in America again. Send the hottentot back to Africa and the spic back to Mexico, Puto Rico, wherever.

  • @MichaelWalter1000 Well I blame the whites for wanting cheap labor.If you don't hire them they will go somewhere else.Same with drugs.It's all supply and demand.Most do deserve to go back to their country but some do make something of themselves.The United states is slowly becoming a third world country.I wouldn't be surprise if we go bankrupt.Even though in reality we are already.

  • You are so ignorant it sickens me. Read a book before you make stupid accusations like this!

  • @VestaB Get a broom and dustpan,So you and those Bridgeport hood rats can clean up that nasty ass city you call Park city.Maybe trash city would be a better name for that overtaxed,section8,gang infested shithole.

  • @VestaB Bridgeport! Were brain and eyeball eaters are welcomed!

  • The reason for the decline of Bridgeport, very simply, is that the manufacturig industries that were the foundation of its economy for so many years closed their factories and shipped their jobs overseas, which happened in a number of manufacturing-heavy cities in America in the 70's - 80's. Blight and crime are all after-effects of a city's economy collapsing. If you want someone to blame, blame the companies that abandoned the city and left it for dead. The racist scapegoating is absurd.

  • @crixxxxxxxxx Still no reason.Will it take another 20 years for people to adjust?My father worked in NY and took the train everyday.No excuse to destroy a community that one lives in.

  • @MissAphrodesiac You wave that section 8 voucher up proudly! Bridgeport has been trying to return more than 50 years already.If you want Bridgeport to return to it's former glory the first thing I would suggest is you and your welfare rats move out so real working class people can move in and bring in real company jobs,not dollar stores or leftover food like they sell in Price Right.Funny how you say glory days,since those days the whites were the ones running Bridgeport at the time.LMAO!

  • @crixxxxxxxxx man i am from Bpt born in 72 i now have a bachelors degree so i dont expect myself to be stereotyped makes me want to drop him in the middle of father panik with the sign john mcclaine wore in die hard with samuel jackson

  • ernie newton was in that pic of the house, anyway, people should take pride regardless of the economic situation step up and clean up the community starting with GARBAGE. lead by example pic up trash when you see it

  • @crixxxxxxxxx You're pretty right. During the de-industrialization phase, nothing was made out of the factories and other abandoned facilities. The toll it took on the local economy is evident. Though I'm young, a lot of my family has come from the Bpt area, and I still have some family living there. It's really hard to believe all the stories they tell me of what it used to look like compared to now.

  • I'm a home owner in Bridgeport on the east end
