St Louis blues.

I am starting to really dislike St. Louis and its surrounding areas.

There just isn't any good news coming out of that area recently.

I just read about the poor woman who took over as mayor in the town of Parma and a bunch of city employees quitting because she is...wait for it, black.

And now that the city of Parma has elected its first black mayor, the town of about 700 residents is suffering another kind of abandonment: Six of its 11 employees — including the police chief, city clerk and water department supervisor — have resigned.

“I don’t understand,” said Tyus Byrd, who was sworn in as mayor a week ago. “I never said anything about cleaning house.”

People here cite a variety of reasons for the departures. Hurt feelings. Worries about being fired. Loyalty to the former mayor, who had been in power for much of the past half-century.
“I don’t want Al Sharpton showing up here. I’ll tell you that,” said Martha Miller, the owner of Miller’s Store who campaigned for Byrd.

Miller said Byrd’s victory and the subsequent resignations had nothing to do with her race, but others disagreed.

“I think it’s about being a woman and being black,” said Nelvia Donaldson, who is also African-American, and was elected alderman in April. “He (former Mayor Randall Ramsey) thought he had it in the bag.” [Source]

Throw in the disrespectful and tasteless act of vandalizing the tree that served as a Michael Brown memorial and you really have to wonder. 

Even if you believe in your heart that he was responsible for his own untimely and tragic death, it doesn't give you the right to disrespect his family and loved ones in such a manner.

"A 79-year-old woman is spearheading a campaign to save her home and over 45 others in her St. Louis neighborhood from possibly being taken by the city through eminent domain.

Charlesetta Taylor has lived in her red-brick, three-storied home for over 70 years, ever since her father bought it in 1945, she told ABC News today.

But the St. Louis Economic Development Corp. offered Taylor’s home and neighborhood to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) in January as a possible site for a new campus, a city development spokeswoman and an NGA public relations officer told ABC News today.

Though the NGA said it was considering three other sites that wouldn’t involve having to bulldoze occupied homes and relocate families, the city said it offered the North Side St. Louis neighborhood hoping to get the NGA to stay in the city and keep the 3,000 jobs it provides there. The U.S. military and intelligence communities use analyses from the NGA that are based on maps and satellite imagery.

“Eminent domain is, indeed, a possibility, but it’s a last resort,” the St. Louis development spokeswoman said. “If people do need to be relocated, we will have real estate people that will meet with the residents and negotiate a solution.”

But Taylor doesn’t want negotiation, and over 90,000 people have supported and signed her Change.org petition. She said she wants to save her neighborhood and maintain her home nicknamed “The Big House,” which has housed generations of her family, including her eight siblings.

“We were the first African-American family I know on this block and several other blocks around us,” Taylor said. “It was 1945, and there was a restrictive covenant restricting where African-Americans could live. But, nonetheless, my father was successful in buying this house for our large family.”

Taylor added she went to an African-American grade school and high school since the area was segregated at the time and that she’s attempting to get her home on the city’s historic registry.

“The Big House” has five bedrooms, two full bathrooms, two “lovely” fireplaces, a dining room with a “gorgeous hand-laid hardwood floor,” two staircases and plenty of unforgettable memories, she said.

“We celebrated everything in here, and there was always something going on,” Taylor said. “During Christmas, dozens of kids would be here: all my siblings, cousins and, later on, their children and children’s children.”

Taylor added that the house hosted many of their large family’s reunions, including its 50th one last year, which they called “The Fish Fry,” in honor of an old tradition Taylor’s mother used to maintain, eating fish on Fridays.

Though Taylor is the only one living in the big house now, she said it’s still a sort of “hotel,” where relatives look forward to staying when they’re in town. “Not only do I want to maintain it, but many, many of us do,” Taylor said. “Even today’s generation loves it here. We give them a tour of the house and tell them old stories such as how my sister was a seamstress and even kept a shop up in here at one point.”

Taylor added that many of her neighbors are also elderly and that their houses have a lot of history that they would like to preserve as well.

The NGA said it is aware of Taylor’s petition, and it “does do not expect to make a final site selection until March 2016.”

Taylor said she hopes the NGA will drop her neighborhood from site consideration, adding, “Our homes are not for sale.” [Source]

First, if anyone can tell me what exactly is the function of  the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, please feel free to leave the first comment after this post. I think my wife knows but she won't tell me.

Anyway, I hope the Rams move to Los Angeles.

Hey, why beat the poor people of the Lou? Let them keep the Rams. Just got back from there on a stopover on the way to KC and the Lou is still the Lou. Still a bit country, a bit racist but definitely good for a decent weekend. Cheap place to live too. Man, you are mean Field.

PilotX said...

And the best thing about the St. Louis area is that if anyone has any ideas about white supremacy those hopes are quickly dashed. My wife commented to me that she wouldn't have believed me if I described the people in that area. I hate to say it but my Black pride swells enormously after a visit.

Yes, just look at what becoming majority black has done for the City of St. Louis.

A city can be rebuilt after an atomic bombing. But once you go black, there's no going back.

PX is full of shit. St Louis and it's surrounding areas are racist as they come. However, to someone born and raised on the south side of Chicago where Blacks have to dodge bullets fired by both Blacks, Jamaicans, Muslims AND White cops then St Louis is heaven.

But to any other Black St Louis is a hell hole.

Muslims have killed and continue to kill Christians and Obama says nothing. Can somebody please tell me why he stands up for Muslims and not for Christians? Why?

I think I'll pass anon 1109 but thanks for the offer.

PilotX said...

Uh anon 1243 pretty sure you weren't a math major. Ha! Let's see, both Blacks, Jamaicans, Muslims and white cops? Both of em huh? And for the record we don't have many Jamaicans here and the Muslims don't carry guns.

"A city can be rebuilt after an atomic bombing. But once you go black, there's no going back."

Or after white hillbillies get hold of it. They've fucked up the entire states of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Kansas, W. Virginia, Kentucky and S. Carolina. At least there's football and baseball to watch in St. Louis. In those hillbilly infested backwater hellholes I guess they screw their relatives and watch cockroach races?

The Purple Cow said...

"You only talk your shit about Bill and I 'cause we're white. You cunt racist."

When PurpleCow loses the argument he always goes to the personal insults. It's a pattern that PurpleCow repeats over and over."


Priceless.

Bill quotes Josh swearing at me as an example of how I swear when I "lose" an argument.

What an imbecile.

The Purple Cow said...

"The biggest--and only--piece of evidence presented to date that Josh-the-Racist is a racist: I curse at black people."

...and that's yet another in a long line of lies from Josh, as he well knows.

I wonder if he has some psychiatric disorder that prevents him from discerning truth from lies?

Or is he just unable to cope with the fact that he's been rumbled?

One thing for sure we've had some whack job racists here over the years, but I doubt any of them had the litany of psychiatric issues that Josh has.

OR perhaps there is just one syndrome that gives you all of Josh's symptoms?

1. Massively inflated ego.
2. Unable to determine truth from lies.
3. Paranoia (thinks everyone is obsessed with him)
4. Desperate all-consuming need to provoke people but gets upset when they respond.

(He'll be along shortly to claim that I have responded to his latest hysterical diatribe is proof that I am obsessed with him)

You just watch...

Poor Ms. Taylor? Funny how blacks love they big liberal government until it takes from them.

Of course field has nothing but his own racist views to back up his claims.

Of course there is a back story field won't tell you about.

Byrd's family. How Byrd often used her influence and black privilege to get her family out of trouble.


Now that she is mayor. Expect the same....

Byrd will last a few years before she finds her black privilege doesn't trump the law....

Tell me PurpleCow, what is it like when an imbecile can pull your strings so easily day after day. Even when I quote Pavlov (Ding Ding) you still jump on command.

What is it like being played by an imbecile?

Is hitler still a socialist?

HAHAHAHA

How does telling the whole story help the dumbocrat agenda?


I remember the days Obama promised the most transparent presidency and then once in office turned out to be less transparent than bush.

Even Obama knows hiding the truth is the best option.

This blog saddens me to see Blacks and Whites not getting along. This is the only blog that Blacks and Whites don't get along.

Can anybody tell me 'why'? It seems the Whites want to get along and are for fairness, justice and unbiased judgment regardless of skin color.

Yet, the Blacks are unfair(Field), corrupt(PC, Yisheng), judgmental of skin color(Yisheng, PX and Yisheng).

This is very sad and very wrong.

Joder La Resistencia said...

Despite the best efforts of good white men and nice white ladies, blacks don't want to get along. They just want that white booty....

Limpbaugh said...

The new mayor should start an investigation and audit. She should look for past financial corruption as well as civil rights violations.

PilotX said...

Blacks love big liberal government? Well historically government was the last refuge to keep our humanity ie stop lynchings and discrimination but that's a different discussion for another time. Most interactions are complex and involve compromises so of course there will be somewhat of a love/hate relationship between many blah folks and government. But then again nice way to stereotype and reduce an intricate history to a sound bite sized clip Kinky.

PilotX said...

It's almost downright Billesque Kinky.

White people don't have booties.

Kevskos said...

Field,

Good post on that situation, hope Mayor Byrd has a successful term and as many more as she deserves.

But calling Parma a suburb of St Louis is like calling State College a suburb of Philly. Parma is 174 miles from St Louis and is a little bump on a minor state road. Looks like it is farm country on Google Earth.

"....a Michael Brown memorial...."

How morally bankrupt is a community that creates a "memorial" to a thug?

Anonymous said...

"I just read about the poor woman who took over as mayor in the town of Parma and a bunch of city employees quitting because she is...wait for it, black."

So what's new? Blacks will have to face the reality in America about them: No one likes Blacks, let alone work for them.

That small town in MO. is a classic example of that state and the racism that is in full force.

The more I hear of racist attitudes in that state the more I am convinced that the cop that shot Michael Brown is a murderer of the highest order.

Of course, Whites like JOSH and Bill enjoy seeing cop thugs shoot bm and get away with it. After all, there is no 'skin' off their backs...they have white skin.

Here's an interesting story from the brother of an Indian actress who lied to get accepted to med school:

This dude's hair is 10 shades darker than mine, his skin is at least 5 shades darker than mine, and his nose is bigger than mine. And he thinks he's NOT Black?

$heeeeeee-iiiiiiiiittttttt!!!!!!!!!!!

No, he is NOT African American. Anybody Black would know that, except you. He is an Indian whose roots are from Bengali.

You really ought to STFU.

She said Black not African-American. Notice the difference.

Interesting that you repeatedly call someone something you smell like. So it looks like that travel down your Mammy's gonorrhea infected vagina at birth left a lasting impressing on you, PUN VERY MUCH INTENDED.

And because that probably went over your head, why don't you gain a vocabulary or STFU you STANK MF!!!

You asked about the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, but the answer is in the article you excerpted (at least a bit of an answer, anyway).

"The U.S. military and intelligence communities use analyses from the NGA that are based on maps and satellite imagery."

That's what they do. They make maps for the U.S. government.

The military's business is invading and bombing. So if they're going to invade and bomb, it would be helpful to know precisely where to invade and where to drop the bombs. The NGA provide them the information to do that accurately.

When the NGA don't do their jobs properly, bad things happen. Like in 1999 during the Balkans War, when our air force was given the wrong coordinates and accidentally bombed the Chinese Embassy, killing and/or injuring 23 people. Oops.

Of course, the maps they generate are also available for all sorts of practical civilian domestic uses as well.

As an aside, I hope that poor lady, and her neighbors, do not have to lose their homes. Eminent domaining people out of the way to enable the development of a public project should always be the last resort. Chances are, there's someplace else they could stick the NGA offices without disrupting people's lives.

I have to concur with one of your other commenters: Parma, Missouri, isn't really part of the surroundings of St. Louis. It's in the same state, but it's not part of the metro area at all. Parma's some tiny tumbleweed town in the middle of nowhere. It's practically in Arkansas or Kentucky.

Why did all of the town staff quit when the black woman got elected mayor? Well, you'd have learn the rest of the story to know for sure. Maybe she has a reputation that has caused others to not want to work with her.

Or maybe you're right. Maybe the residents are just having a little race-freakout.

This is a problem for black politicians generally. Some white people think black people only want revenge for historic racism. (I've got to say, your fellow racism chasers sometimes help to reinforce this impression with the over-the-top, rageful things they say; see Toni Morrison's deranged statements of the last couple days for an example.) This leads white voters and the white political establishment to believe that black politicians will govern in an outright destructive way, that they can't be trusted.

This happened back in the '80s in Chicago with its first black mayor, Harold Washington. He was no radical -- actually, he was a pretty laid-back, sensible guy. But his election drove certain elements of the city into an absolute panic. Longtime Democrats became temporary Republicans just to oppose him. "Fast Eddie" Vrdolyak and his buddies on the city council organized and devoted their every waking moment to blocking anything he wanted to do, just out of spite. Even if they agreed with what he was proposing to do, they'd vote against it simply because it had Harold's name attached.

It took a couple years for everyone to calm the hell down and realize that Washington was not the black verson of Emperor Nero, come to burn the city to the ground -- that he was a proud Chicagoan who wanted to improve his hometown, just like them.

The same thing is happening now with the Obama backlash led by crazy people like Ted Cruz.
