Liberals feel that "gave at the office" by shedding crocodile tears for minorities; they just don't want to see them on "their own time."Danger Zone: One has to remember that the Hamptons have a sizable contingent of year round residents that do not have the same demographics as the seasonal residents. I'd also note that the seasonal residents that we're talking about may not be *racist* per se, but merely "classist". In other words, they have no qualms about non-whites of their own income and social classes, but they don't want the poorer residents of any race nearby. And FWIW, I suspect most of us wouldn't want to see our neighbour's home being used as a home for a large group of migrants*. *FWIW, I tend to make a difference between illegal mother-daughter conversions which host one to three extra people (e.g. young couple, single mom with kids) in extra space in a suburban home which should be legalized to push down market rate rents, and 20 migrants in a house. |
