As the minority middle class continues to grow there is now white flight from the suburbs with minorities to the still white suburbs. Seems wasps still need their entitled ego and superiority.

Their "entitled ego and superiority" might have something to do with them actually demonstrating superiority in quantifiable terms: less crime, better engagement in their kid's education, and lower pathology of many types. When the new residents start behaving like white suburbanites instead of relocated slum residents the "white flight" will stop. If this was black and minority professionals moving into the suburbs the white flight would not be an issue.

So, just a statement with no solution? I for one would be very interested to hear your solution.

Everyone wants to live with white people, and everyone gets mad when they leave because the neighbors suck and start squawking about white flight. Why isn't there any outrage over black, Asian, Mexican, or Indian flight? Why does it only matter when the white people leave?
White people like white culture, but now that's called racism.

Pro tip for the folks who envy whites so much that they want to force them to live next door. Be better neighbors and the white people won't leave.

Well, at lease these minorities aren't killing, burning and driving out the whites, like the whites did to the Natives of this land.

Sorry, but when there are complaints of neighborhoods changing, I feel no sorrow. 1) given the history of this country and 2) (which is much more relevant) how the majority of the time, it changes for a reason - that reason is; it was asked to change, usually by new neighbors.

In my neighborhood, there has been a huge jump in home robberies. And, the majority of the new people in my neighborhood are white - not black. We have always had black people in the area - even projects - but, this latest spike in robberies are committed by whites. Usually white kids who use to live in Manhattan or Brooklyn up until 5 years ago, that can no longer afford the rent. So, they move into Queens. With their bed bug ridden furniture, they are bringing their drug appetites as well. And, illegal drugs can be quite expensive. So, they resort to stealing to keep their habits up. I guess mom and dad got tired of sending money to live a chic life of partying, drugs and being all urban?

Now, these white kids who are stealing for their drugs aren't the only ones committing crimes. We have drug turf wars as well! Just a month ago, a crew of dealers started gunning one another down a few blocks from where I live. And, they were black.

Oh, and here is the kicker - these white kids were not born and raised in NYC,.. they moved out here from the midwest, west coast and south. Growing up in Queens, I did not see this type of violence occurring. And, of course there were plenty of black people here - I even lived in the same projects for a short time when I was younger. But, these turf war shoot outs did not occur. These home robberies by addicts, did not occur.

All of this is from a demand - and that demand is established by,... tada,... white folk in my neighborhood. This does not make the drug dealers innocent, or people "just trying to get by". They are guilty of committing crimes as well.

But, to think that non-whites moving into a white area drives up crime, well, I don't see that. I had black neighbors for quite a while - and, I've never seen this type of crime occur,.. up until the white kids moved in.

For the most part, living in a very diverse neighborhood was OK. We had a wide mix of every culture, race, creed and society. And, things were just fine - because everyone just wanted to work and live life.

Queens is the most diverse place on Earth,...
http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york...laces-earth-new-figures-show-article-1.430744

,... and we got along just fine, until strung out druggies from the "better" parts of the US started showing up trying to be bohemian and urban. This didn't happen at the rate it does now when Mexicans, Brazilians, Croatians, Greeks, Italians, Jamaicans, Haitians, Pakistani, Egyptians and Turks showed up. The problem came from the very 'victims' that claim this kind of diversity is 'taking over this country'.

I'm wondering if it is actually race based or socioeconomic based. It seems the well off minorities flock to the same neighborhoods as the well of whites, but in the case of blacks and Hispanics there are just a lower percentage of them that are middle class and above.

And I also wonder if the flight to the suburbs is truly still going on. It seems younger people are more interested in moving to the city rather than away from it.

The government should prosecute those whites to the fullest extent of the law.... oh wait they have all been dead for a while now.

I never asked for that - but, you can pretend I did, since that is what you REALLY want.

There are still some older white folks left in Silicon Valley, but they are moving out, and being replaced by mainly Asian immigrants. I bike by this area on my way to work, it's mostly older bungalow style houses, with American trucks and cars, and every other house has an RV or a boat outside. But slowly and surely, you start seeing more of the boats and RVs gone and BMW and Mercedes replacing them, houses getting renovated or torn down and replaced with two story structures.
You just know that place is going to get gentrified in 20 years. I mean if you are an older couple living there, you can cash out for close to $1M now, and retire comfortably almost anywhere else in the country.
In 20 years, it's going to be mostly Asian professionals living there, and schools are going to go from crappy to top in the state in test scores as a result, and then the place will go from a semi-dump to a desirable area.
I gotta start chatting up the older white folks at stop signs, see who is interested in selling and moving.

I'll bite.

Blasting music at 2am.

Until recently I lived in what would be considered a slum by many people on here. No music was blasting at 2AM by minorities. What did happen was that the girl above me who almost certainly came from a "white suburbanite" family blasted music at 2AM and had repeated late night dance parties.

Crazy, huh.

So whats the reason? The inference is that it is racist, but what if it isn't. What if there is a very valid reason for it?

I’m sure whites just love uprooting their families and leaving everything they have built up behind without any good reason.

It's too bad you or your neighbors have no say over who moves into your neighborhood, huh. Sounds like you're upset about "the wrong kind of people" moving in next door. Enjoy your much needed cultural enrichment, citizen; and watch out for joey-ray, he gets a mite crazy when he's spun up on meth. Make sure to check your privilege and not to criticize him on throwing people out of windows and breaking bottles over your head, though; it's his culture.

just something i experienced with this.

I live in a very small farming town.

The house next to me has been purchased from someone who has lived in Chicago all there lives (One family white one family mixed).

When they moved out here they were in for a shock (i have posted a lot about how bad they were).

out here EVERYONE knows you. IF you fuck up and get arrested they know it. IF you do something silly like steal from someone it spreads.

The kids next to us were little punks. they would try to intimidate everyone (they learned fast it does not work). Even the parents would do it.

They had no respect for anyone property or even common courtesy.

It has happened twice. the first family never paid the mortgage and were foreclosed on. the new family in it are just as bad. though they are coming around to how it is out here.

But small towns are not the suburbs. Lots of kids and adults who live in the suburbs are bad shit just like the hood. The crime is not as prevalent and most folk who live there flow with society but there are lots of shitholes also.

The real estate agencies profited off that in the 60s and 70s and I believe they deserved every penny they made.

Again, why try to build anything in this country when it can be destroyed by the stroke of a pen? Smart people see the writing on the wall and are tearing it down and profiting greatly from it, have been since the 60s-70s, and they deserve every penny they move into offshore accounts :D.

they should just move to the country (1 hour away from any large city) if they don't like diversity. the area i live in is %99.8 white.

Nope.

Just as most non-whites have NOT acted in the manner you speak of, in my area, I expect joey-ray to follow suit.

He hasn't.

The point of this thread is that whites are being driven away and out of their land - by hordes of brown people - because diversity is being forced on them.

Well, no. It isn't.

The 'hordes' are there for a reason - and, that reason does not involve forcing anything on you, taking anything from you or robbing you. In fact, they work rather hard, follow laws and live peacefully amongst most people,... where as when the whites 1st came over on this land,.. they butchered, raped and stole the land from the natives. Yet, alarms ring, when a non-white moves into a white neighborhood,.. why is that??

And, in my part of the country, things are just fine, since they want to work. Everything was just peachy, until the demented rubes started showing up and pretended they were metropolitan.

Trash is trash - not diversity. Some of your ilk could learn a thing or two about the hard working immigrants that came over here and have lived perfectly fine, in the last nearly 4 decades of Queens.

because some things have changed over the last 200 years (or more like 100). everything was free for the taking back then. it wasn't just in america. have you watched the border map video of europe over the past 1000 years (http://vimeo.com/89394659)? so much conquering and retaking and reconquering, it was ridiculous. that was just the way the world worked. it sucked, but it is what it was.

and also indians didnt have ATOT
