That was some ridiculously dumb shite right there. No logical consistency. The conservative areas of the country are poor and need the blue areas of the country…but the premise of the article is red areas of cities leaving will devastate the blue areas.

Lefties lie about everything that the double speak doesn’t matter.

They hate whites but love to take their money

If anyone needs this article to get how bad MSNBC is then they’re probably a lost cause.

You hit it right on the head. Crime is one of the highest levels in the country, tax level is amongst the highest in the state and in return we get horrendous schools and infrastructure, the same idiots continue to get elected which leads to more of the same.

But folks are leaving bc they’re racist? Nah. Only idiots believe that and dems use it to their advantage over their weak minded constituents.


It seems like such common sense. Sometimes, I start to think that deep in their hearts, the NBR folks understand but they just don't want to admit it. If I were a struggling single parent living in a crime-infested, litter plagued shite hole with terrible influences all around, I'd do whatever I had to to do to make it to St. George. An apartment off Millerville is attainable to anyone that isn't afraid to put in a solid days work doing whatever is necessary to pay the bills.

But that's where the disconnect come in. A solid days work, 2 jobs if necessary. I understand that day-care becomes a problem but those that have 2 kids by the age of 20 without a father in their life to assist have made their own bed. Thats where this problem truly lies, single mother hood with multiple kids. That's hard to escape from once your buried beneath it. Trying to manage 2 kids, sickness, daycare, transportation, etc while being a dependable and reliable employee is next to impossible to co-exist

Of course, we all know good people that make mistakes and end up as single mothers for various reasons, but the acceptance of this situation in the lower income demographic is staggering. I managed a team of entry level workers that were honestly trying to better their situation, but watching and seeing first hand how often these young women became pregnant and hearing them describe the lack of a partner and that just being accepted as a normal part of life disturbed me. That's not normal and should be discouraged but it didn't seem to be to this young demographic. They cut their legs out from under them before they even get started.

The normalcy and acceptance if it is very discouraging.

Could the city go after revenue from people employed in organization like lsu.. state.. plants etc… ?


I guess they could if they don’t mind those organizations moving out or deterring new ones from moving in.

Wow, I’m already a huge media skeptic, but I can’t believe how pitiful that MSNBC “article” is. Everyone please read it, it’s a 90 second read.

If you ever want to hate the media, look for any story on something you have advanced knowledge on. I laugh every single time I see an accounting story.

I mean income tax is paid where earned, not where you live (unless you have a larger tax rate in your home state in certain situations, but that's beside the point). So yes, if you earn income outside of St. George it will be taxed outside of St. George.

Hate Reid says all of the blue counties control the economic superiority over red counties and we couldn’t survive a breakup. I wonder how all those economic enclaves would feed themselves and put gas in their cars?

From the Joy Reid/MSNBC article:

It’s hard to see these plans as anything but efforts to divest money and other resources from communities that embody the project of multiracial democracy


Roll that around in your mind and think about what she’s saying.


Joy Reid most likely has an IQ below 90. There is no need to waste time worrying about her opinion on anything.

When white people move into a predominantly black area, it’s a negative..called gentrification. When white people leave a predominantly black area it’s a negative…called white flight. When white people want their own area, where they currently live it’s also a negative. White people are so negative.


Common thread, white people are bad. I think it’s honestly from a deep black inferiority complex. Black fragility. Whitey can’t do anything right… except innovate, build careers, emphasize education and raise families 100x better than black America will ever be able to do.

Black people overplayed their hand with BLM and protesting and blaming white people. They could’ve quit while they were ahead years ago, now they have egg on their face. White people called their bluff. I know it’s not as simplistic as white people moving away, but I hope it keeps happening so that black America eventually is forced to blame no one but themselves.

The whole country should be segregated, black people saw to that being their end goal. Whites and Asians get along, whites and Hispanics kind of get along, so they can all live side by side just fine, but no one really gets along with black people and black people are the ones pushing the segregation harder than anyone else. Let this continue to play out across the country and see how it works out for them.

Just jealous of the planned weekend champagne and caviar $50 bill burning extravaganzas for all of the exclusively obscenely wealthy white inhabitants.

Curious as to how many st George residents live and work in St. George or if they work outside of it..



Did you care when I lived in Ascension and worked in Baton Rouge?
