The Germans used very similar tactics when they created the
Warsaw Ghetto for Jewish people. The Germans also probably had
some excuse about Jews preferring to live with only Jews. No matter
how you sweet coat it with empty rhetoric, it is still discriminatory and
wrong. The City of Minneapolis needs to open up the more affluent
"Arian" neighborhood's walls in an affirmative manner. Minneapolis
has engaged in a pattern of protecting its "better" neighborhoods from
such supportive housing. I am sure the Germans also thought they
were "protecting" and listening to their "better" citizens.

I am satisfied with Jim Graham's appropriate example of brutal policy, above.
Since he resides in a war zone I grant him some liceanse. I am sure Professor
Graham meant "Aryan" neighborhoods, OK. Mr. Bonham's attempt at correction,
that the Warsaw Ghetto was in Poland, appears misdirected regarding the above
statements of Mr. Graham. Mr. Bonham's point that the Warsaw Ghetto existed
well before Hitler, or Germany, is true of course. But Hitler made the Warsaw
ghetto into the "Warsaw *G*hetto".
Speaking of war zones: I gained a new bullet hole addition to my "West
Broadway bullet hole collection". This bullet entered the house through a
first floor sidewall toward the back of the house last week. It passed 3 or 4
inches above the lavatory in the first floor half bath, and hit the bathroom
door. Small caliber. AND on the approximate one year anniversary of the last
bullet hole that entered this particular house. Happy anniversary.
The previous bullet entered the three season porch, in the front of this
house on Penn Av. N. That medium caliber bullet passed over the back of one
lounge chair, went diagonally across the room and into the wall just above
the back of another chair.
I lost the tenant both times; that is, they moved.
Penn 2xxx, 4br 1 1/2 ba, available NOW, refs req, quiet tree lined street.
