In January 2013, police raided the home of a Cleveland drug dealer, saying in a search warrant that an informant had recently bought crack cocaine there.
But the drug dealer had surveillance cameras that proved the officers were lying. He gave the tapes to his lawyer, who showed the FBI. The feds then worked to uncover a massive scandal of a rogue street-crimes unit that robbed and framed drug suspects who felt they had no choice but plead guilty to fraudulent charges.
Four years later, authorities are still unwinding the damage.
Three cops who worked for the city of East Cleveland are in prison. Cases against 22 alleged drug dealers have been dismissed. Authorities are searching for another 21 people who are eligible to have their convictions tossed. On top of those injustices, there is a slim chance that any of them will be fully reimbursed, because the disgraced officers and their former employer don't have the money.

Uh huh. Go after the few remaining rich ones, who are utterly powerless in a system that lets them be outvoted a hundred to one by the useless people that turned the town into a Hellhole in the first place. Yup, establish the precedent that the millisecond the vibrants gain the majority and elect a corrupt major and city council they should INSTANTLY sell anything they can't move at fire sale prices and flee for their lives lest they have their property seized to pay for the sins of the third world we are recreating here in our cities. Yup, lets go full Mugabe since it worked out so well for them.
The suburbs were initially created as refugee camps for white people driven from their cities by Democrats importing and empowering diversity until the cities became hellholes, then the government rammed the excess diversity into the suburbs because they were deemed "too white." Now it all about exurbs. The idiocy of people like Grisnakh would accelerate that process and get shooting wars started to keep the diversity from getting in.
And people still wonder why we don't think the Left is even capable of rational thought? Here ya go.

I'm guessing you've never met or talked to a member of that group before. Based on your post history I imagine you don't talk to anyone who isn't in your belief bubble. His phrasing was a bit insensitive with the 'refugee' remark, but in many cases the forced 'diversity' does end up turning areas bad. If it was natural the two cultures and groups would gradually become more like each other. Forcing it just makes both groups clam up and avoid the other group, ending in so called 'white flight' or the reverse... 'gentrification'.

I'm guessing you weren't blessed with a broad historical education, or if so then you don't have an abundance of brains... Cities == jobs, so you get a lot of poor people trying to make a living by moving to the city. The idea that Democrats caused a migration of minorities to "white rich towns" is laughable, and the underlying racism is blatant. It is a well used ploy, use objectively true facts (urban ghettos are a common thing) and use that to support a crazy racist position.
Yeah, we don't get the point at allllll.... Forced diversity? Lawl, someone dipping into the adult kool-aid?
