If Flint was white, would they be sucking lead

Does race play a part in the Flint water crisis?

Just a thought, because I seriously think that if Flint was a white Republican community in Michigan, say like Grosse Point for example, this shit would never have happened. Oh, that's right, its just a bunch of black Democrats, so fuck em. (I'm being REALLY polite now). So, do you think this is a racist thing, or some dumb as fuck Republicans doing their usual shit, which is (always?) a disaster for people of color. Vote

You know why Trump is impervious to all the accusations and screeching coming from the media/PC crowd? The OP just demonstrated it perfectly. When you run around calling every political opponent racist, people stop listening and assume you're full of shit. You and your ilk have marginalized yourselves.

Environmental Racism? LOL Oh man white people, get your check books out, this gonna cost you!

Im so sure they did it on purpose. Is everything bad that happens to black people automatically white peoples fault? Couldn't this just be a couple idiots that didn't do their job like so many other people do on a daily basis? Did ya'll do your job today?

This is just going to get ugly. Dont get me wrong its a conversation that cant be ignored. But doing it on here where you can hide behind your computer and call people names will never solve this.
I will say the same ol "because Im black" is getting old. I mean, I know people in Flint that are white as hell going through the same shit as the black community. And dont try and call me out..Im as far from a racist as they get. And no Im not going to follow that by saying I have a black friend...lol
This is our governments work people. The White guy is not "The man" anymore.....its the "White House now!

I don't think race played any role, this is just the government putting dollar signs over their constituents.. They don't give a fuck about us. Never have. The Governor should have two options..him n his family can drink 20 gallons each or resign immediately.

In a truly free market, no wise provider of water would poison their customers...in an unfree market when one entity (coercion based government) holds a monopoly this is bound to happen.

Wouldn`t that indicate the mayor failed first ?

nice try.......the city died decades ago when GM pulled out. couple that fact with the other fact of the state cutting revenue sharing to cities and you have the beginnings of a clue

the republicans have had total control of michigan for years and now they've poisoned a 100,000 people. snyder insisted on the emergency manager concept even after the people of michigan voted it down.

there's no getting around it and you'll look even more retarded trying. the republicans own this motherfucker

Detroit has been in Republican control for decades? Why has there been a Democratic administration for decades... Oh wait, you are wrong.... Why not blame it on the people who made the decisions and are responsible rather than blaming it on racism and/or politics?

There`s nothing to try, if the city failed because the main factory left, the Mayor had no back-up plan, nor the foresight to see it happen.

Two decades,...Lets take that back to 96,...So what did Clinton do to chase GM away ? Every city has a building inspector appointed by the mayor, Where was he when this water was piped in and turned on ?
