Chuck & Eric, the troops are standing on Daytons Bluff looking down at city hall. Citizens violated by rogue housing code policies are planning their strategy of attack and it looks real bad for the city.

Assistant city attorney Seeba will be over whelmed by Goldstein with his Stanford and Harvard law students. Among others I wouldn't be surprised if the ACLU joins the landlords calvary.


From the website;

And because a principal purpose of the firm’s pro bono work is to provide high-quality educational opportunities for the students at Stanford and Harvard

You sure have been quiet Eric. Can't say that I blame you after everything you've said here for years. Politically active educated blacks like yourself and city councilman Melvin Carter have known the impact of Saint Paul's housing policy's for years and yet you sided with institutional racist within city government. Of coarse there is many other black community leaders who sat on their lips and blew nothing but gas. All of you are complicit in this disparate impact scheme.

I am told Goldstein has a history of representing those who are not willing to settle out of court. There is no turning back now, it appears an all out fight is about to go down in history.

The question is, what will the irresponsible housing policy's of past and present administrations cost the tax payers? And what if any retributions will be made to our minority communities?

9:36, I am not going to allow character assassination here without evidence to back it up. Send me the evidence, use your name and you can say what you will.

I won't be put in a position in which I could be held liable.

Fighting over fair housing is a good sign that there are a lot of people really wanting to have a fair housing and no discrimination at all to anyone without exception.
