The Obama Administration, sensing that its time to “fundamentally transform” America is running out, is planning a final year push to seed peaceful suburban communities with violent inner city thugs.
The scheme involves super-sizing vouchers to help urban poor afford higher rents in pricey areas, such as Westchester County, while assigning them government real-estate agents called “mobility counselors” to secure housing in the exurbs.
Castro plans to launch the Section 8 reboot this fall, even though a similar program tested a few years ago in Dallas has been blamed for shifting violent crime to affluent neighborhoods.
It’s all part of a grand scheme to forcibly desegregate inner cities and integrate the outer suburbs.
Anticipating NIMBY resistance, Castro last month threatened to sue suburban landlords for discrimination if they refuse even Section 8 tenants with criminal records. And last year, he implemented a powerful new regulation — “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” — that pressures all suburban counties taking federal grant money to change local zoning laws to build more low-income housing (landlords of such properties are required to accept Section 8 vouchers).
Everywhere this scheme has tried, it’s led to higher rates of violent crime and property crime in the areas targeted while not leading the beneficiaries of the scheme to better educational or economic performance. The leftist response has been to double down on failure and threaten critics with legal action.
There’s really not much option if you’re one of the suburban homeowners targeted by this program but to purchase a firearm and learn how to use it effectively; unless you live in New York, California, Connecticut, New Jersey or some other state where your Constitutional Right of Self-Defense has been infringed to the point of meaninglessness.
Julian Castro is nothing more than a big-city-ward poverty pimp. This Section 8 plan is effectively “revenge” on suburbanites as viewed through the prism of his anger at his heritage and his upbringing. Period.
Plus, he’s the most arrogant elitist I’ve seen since Barack Hussein Obama first put his nose up in the air.

Watch for “red” districts to be targeted first…
Precisely why do many people choose to live in the suburbs–to escape high crime and nanny state city governments–including me! Ask Dallas how this has gone for them. Geez, I HATE these people! And yeah, Julian Castro will be Hillary’s Veep. Dems see an opportunity for power into perpetuity via illegal immigrants voting and Hispandering. I weep for our country.
This is happening in every corner of the country. It’s also a reason some cities are being pressured to rezone to allow apartment buildings which has happened here & is one main reason why we’re relocating, for example, to west Texas. I never thought I’d be part of a white flight. However; some communities (in better places) have had the foresight to zone properly beforehand & contain the problem.
BHO and his ilk subscribe to the theory of “magic dirt”. You see, the reason that inner-city people commit crimes, prey on each other, destroy their surroundings is due to a mysterious miasma that seeps from the ground beneath their feet. It’s why inner-city kids fail to learn any useful skills and why urban schools fail. It’s like lead paint except that it’s airborne (or maybe it’s like ionizing radiation – you just need to be in the area).
Moving to the ‘burbs is the cure. Minus poverty gas (or poverty beams), the underclass will shake off undesirable behaviors and yearn for entry-level jobs where they begin their climb up the ladder of success.
The same thing happens in countries. The reason that Honduras and Guatemala are so violent and poor is due to the gases seeping from the soil. The evil gases were deposited during the Chicxulub meteor impact 66 millions years ago.
Actually, this could be fun. Watching the denizens of various coastal enclaves cling to their secular liberal-religion while objecting to imposed diversity will be a hoot.
Given the gentrification of the Bay Area, I’d think the residents of, say, Marin County should see this as a great help to the poor of SF and Oakland suffering from a dearth of affordable housing. Sleepy little towns like Mill Valley will only get better with an injection of a more vibrant and diverse population.
Julian Castro has been mentioned as a possible Hillary running mate. What a pair they would be.
I’d say he has a pretty good shot; you know the VP slot won’t go to another woman (no matter how many people want it to go to Fauxcahontas), and you know that Queen Cackles won’t want anyone who’s perceived to be smarter than herself in that position. So basically that leaves a subservient Black or Latino male.
this is all political clocked in the mantle of civil rights and integration. all the original integration movement did was to create one party dictatorships in the inner-cities to their eternal detriment. this is nothing more than an attempt by the democrat party to do to the suburbs what they did to the cities in the 1950s and 1960s.
“. . . that pressures all suburban counties taking federal grant money to change local zoning laws . . .”
If you take the King’s coin, you dance to the King’s tune. If municipalities don’t like Federal regulations, they have only to stop taking Federal money. Interesting to see if any have the guts to actually do it. Otherwise, they’ll have to admit they are nothing more than vassals to DC.
Juan Castro’s mom is a Saul Allinsky follower. Big leader in La Raza. He will be crowned king when Hillary is suddenly indicted after she wins the election. Juan will step in and take ove where Obama left off. And, that’s how they get rid of Hillary.
The solution is easy. Lie on every government document. Every single one. Since the US Government is racist and links race to everything bad, and since they have no objective standard for race, you can inoculate yourself and your neighborhoods by always declaring your race to be “black”.
Do it on the census, and on HUD forms when you buy property. Then, when the FED wants to up the percentage of blacks in your area, they will see that you already have enough and they will leave you alone.

Why does this never apply to Latrina’s 21 illegitimate crack babies(actual person in NJ) that leech my tax dollars, while I have never touched her? Do I have an option to not pay more federal taxes every time she squats out another?
