Actually, I have been to Miami and Atlanta DC and Dallas, so take your crystal ball nonsense out of here. And do you talk about other countries, because I can guarantee I have been to more places then you can point out on a map.
You said in the previous conversation the last time you went on one of these dumb regional troll tirades that you had never been anywhere in the south. Either you were lying then, or you're lying now.
And if there is enough reliable data why did you claim it was all over when you really meant to say "the Midwest has them too!" which is what you picking a fight with me is really about. One sundown town in Alaska and 50 in Alabama is not the same no matter how you try to spin it.
It's not just the midwest, you dumb canuck fukk. Sundown towns have been ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. North, south, east, west, Maine, California, Washington, everywhere. What is wrong with you? Every study on the phenomena has shown this to be true. The book I linked is the most comprehensive inquiry into the matter...

Whites have nicknames for many sundown towns: from “Colonial Whites” for Colonial Heights, near Richmond, Virginia, to “Lily White Lynwood” outside of Los Angeles.
—FROM SUNDOWN TOWNS
“Don’t let the sun go down on you in this town.” We equate these words with the Jim Crow South but, in a sweeping analysis of American residential patterns, award-winning and bestselling author James W. Loewen demonstrates that strict racial exclusion was the norm in American towns and villages from sea to shining sea for much of the twentieth century.
Weaving history, personal narrative, and hard-nosed analysis, Loewen shows that the sundown town was—and is—an American institution with a powerful and disturbing history of its own, told here for the first time. In Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and elsewhere, sundown towns were created in waves of violence in the early decades of the twentieth century, and then maintained well into the contemporary era.
Sundown Towns redraws the map of race relations, extending the lines of racial oppression through the backyard of millions of Americans—and lobbing an intellectual hand grenade into the debates over race and racism today.
You said it was "total bs" that they were anywhere but the south. Just say you were wrong and be quiet.
And again, I didn't white folks up north love blacks. I never said that in any post, you interpreted that and ran with it.
If you keep trying to drive home the point that there is racist attitudes in the south, and nobody denies they're more prevalent among people white people in the south, yet you're claiming that somehow the 55% of black people who live in the south don't have dignity, blah, blah, blah, you are essentially saying that white people love you so much more and treat you so much better in the north, which is utter bullshyt.
Let me try to explain and educate you to something because I guess knowledge about American life didn't trickle up much to Canada. In can't speak for small towns, but in southern cities--metro areas, life for black people is essentially no different than it is in cities in the north. You may see more confederate flags and more white people may vote for Republican, but as far as the effect on your daily life it's negligible.
What I find even more hilarious that you're a Canadian trying to lecture black Americans about life and culture in parts of the country you've never lived in, is that you live in NYC and have the audacity to claim black people living ANYWHERE lack dignity and self-respect.
There's nothing wrong with NYC...great place, maybe the best overall city in the US....used to go almost every summer as a kid. But a New Yorker telling anybody else they lack dignity of self-respect is farcical.
NYC has had an active
for a couple of decades. NYC essentially laid the blueprint for the holocaust on black families that is the war on drugs with the Rockefeller drugs laws in the 70's. NYC has a racist police chief and back to back racist Mayors who support flagrantly unconstitutional searches and seizures that target black and Latino males.
The NYC city government has gentrified the city and actively tried to get rid of their black population, turning historic black neighborhoods into bike paths for art major cacs wearing jeggings. NYC is the marijuana arrest capital of the world. In NYC cops shot Amadou Diallo 41 times for no reason and Guiliani shytted on the whole black population of the city, and was like "Yeah we shot him, what?" They did nothing. Abmer Louima got raped and tortured by police in NYC. Sean Bell got shot 50 times unarmed in NYC. The Central Park 5 got thrown in jail as juveniles, framed for a rape they didn't commit and the D.A. still won't apologize to them to this day.
You sound pretty stupid dissing the 55% of black people who live in the south while you're praising a city that actively shyts on black people, violates their civil rights, and blatantly tries to kick them out of the city daily.
Attitudes among whites in the southern region are generally more racist. The most severe, draconian anti-black policies in the country today are in NYC. Instead of playing this stupid "white people like us more in the north" game, why don't you just concede that this is AmeriKKKa and cacs cac everywhere and give this ill-informed bloviating you're doing a rest?
at those home prices
