Apr 14, 2012 - Scary thing is think about the huge amounts of money pumped into urban renewal, economic ans social programs and the money disappears and bulldozed homes are left after the dust clears. Someone profitted.

Apr 21, 2012 - @yarfness69 Stfu you racist trash, what do you expect? The white man treated them like animals so thats what they became. The problems with the country are your fault white man. 300 years of opression and segregation doesn't just end overnight. The reason most urban ghettos are filled with blacks is because that was their only option 50 years ago, segregation didn't allow blacks to make decent wages and alot of them just never got out of the hole but ut's not their fault

Apr 23, 2012 - "white" should be "Southern White"We, in the north, accepted and tolerated the blacks. Perhaps that was a mistake.

Apr 27, 2012 - once people get over skin colour and realize anyone could live or not live in these areas than you'll see people are just people

May 17, 2012 - All WE (blacks) have to do is buy property and businesses and not Bentleys and diamonds. That way blacks can spend with blacks. We would be independent in no time.

May 17, 2012 - holy crap. My family just drove there last week to visit the Aquarium in Camden. The Aquarium looked fine. Didn't run into trouble but i didn't know the city was one of the worst in america.

May 17, 2012 - Actually east orange is much worse than newark. Newark has a thriving downtown corporate business ctr, two law schools, medical school,federal courts and nj performing arts center. Plus portugese ironbound.politicians out$ into.it plus business, at least downtown.. cory booker is mayor. Strong church and local tenant etc orgs. Camden lost that, like east orange. Full of gangs crips bloods, corrupt cops, no jobs, no 9-5 .war zone no white. I can go to newark any day not scared.

May 17, 2012 - All we (people that care black and white) need to do is what was done in jersey city. Get grants from govt, not just promises, make them stick to it and move back together with a plan to rebuild camden thru a special low tax zone, special housing deal for buyers, deals for businesses, its called investing in the hood by govt and big business .incentives for public planning, to restore camden. We did it for disneyland times square
skitsy17 Says:
May 17, 2012 - White didnt profit from lost $. Politicians on the take, contractors, banks, everyone but 99%.its not black v white they want us to fight
illadelph215SJ Says:
May 19, 2012 - ive gone to law school there every day for the past 3 years. the school area, aquarium, and susquehana bank center isnt bad. I walk a good distance to and from my car and never had a problem but go a few blocks to the other side of the bridge and it can be rough. That said, i have been over there for a few meals. never been robbed or assaulted, there are lots of good people... if you go in looking for drugs, you'll find trouble but that can happen anywhere.

May 22, 2012 - "Accepted and tolerated the blacks." Wow. Just because slavery ended in the north doesn't mean that racial inequality ended immediately altogether. Read a book.
