Darren Wilson's new Love Shack. What are the Demographics? Diversity much?

[NYC_SKP]

I won't post his actual street address, but it's a typical tract house, pretty boring.



Such Diversity!

What a shame that he can't enjoy the place.

1. As the saying goes, like likes like.

May his dreams be forever haunted.

2. Considering the state's overall demographics

In 2011, the racial composition of the state was:

84.0% White American (81.0% non-Hispanic white, 3.0% White Hispanic
11.7% Black or African American
0.5% American Indian and Alaska Native
1.7% Asian American
0.1% Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander
1.9% Multiracial American

I suspect it is easier to find city demographics like this than it is do find diverse demographics.

[NYC_SKP]

3. 11.3% versus 00.3%? That's a big diff. Look at the demographics of the neighborhood he was serving:

Here:

11.3% versus 00.3% is a big deal, his neighborhood is not close to the state demo at all.

The state has 40 times as many blacks in the mix.

And the neighborhood where he murdered Brown had 271 times the number of blacks.

Its almost as if he wanted to go "hunting" every day.

4. You think he should move

into a black neighborhood? What are you thinking? Like that would be a great idea for him?

[NYC_SKP]

7. Yes. Police should live where they serve.

Don't you think?

[Bettie]

9. I agree

It is way harder to dehumanize the people who live in your neighborhood.

5. It's a good thing you didn't post the address

The NY Times reporter who did has been harassed at home and at work by bloggers who found out all her personal information. Her shoplifting record was also found and publicized.

You honestly don't want those people after you.

[NYC_SKP]

6. I know the address, the parcel number, taxes paid, etc.

It's not hard to find.

But thanks, you are right!

[Wella]

8. And hopefully, you'll do nothing with them

We all have internet vulnerabilities. Even posting anonymously is no guarantee as some women on this board know all too well.

[NYC_SKP]

10. Correct.

I am friends with some of the women to whom you refer.

[alp227]

11. Didn't happen

[Wella]

14. Snopes is sometimes wrong. I'll do my own research on this.

And get back to you.

[Wella]

18. The blogger revenge DID happen

and that's the point. I have links to the blogger crap. I'll IM it, but I won't post it. It's pretty vile.

[ScreamingMeemie]

19. Right, but you assigned it to a NY Times reporter.

[Wella]

21. No, I did not. Please reread the post and get the facts straight before accusing others of lying.

The facts:

1. The NY Times was believed to have published the address of Darren Wilson. (Snopes says they did not, but they clearly published something that they retracted, and I would have to have a source other than Snopes to verify what it was. The address has been published before, so it wouldn't be unique to the NYTimes.)

2. Bloggers went after both NYTimes reporters, listed their addresses in many places on line, and found and published the shoplifting record of the female reporter, who was originally from Wisconsin.

[ScreamingMeemie]

22. " The NY Times reporter who did has been harassed at home"

Yes, I'll believe you over my own lying eyes. You might want to append your original response before getting all bent out of shape. Cheers.

"Editors' Note: November 25, 2014
An earlier version of this post included a photograph that contained information that should not have been made public. The image has been removed."

That photograph was of a marriage license.

[Wella]

23. She was harassed. That is the truth. Why is that statement a problem for you?

[uppityperson]

27. She didn't post the address like you claimed. Why is that statement such a problem for you?

[notadmblnd]

12. "those people"? Who are "those people"

[Wella]

15. Bloggers.

Did you bother to read the post?

[notadmblnd]

25. yes I did and I think it could have been interrpreted in more than one way

it is the reason I asked. So thank you for your terse response. I feel certain that you will make many friends here.

Welcome.

[Wella]

26. How? Think about it. Who would go after NYC_SKP for publishing Wilson's address?

The only possible referent for "those people" in this context is either bloggers or fans of Wilson, who would be probably be white, correct?

So how does that translate into another interpretation?

Seriously. How does your logic work?

[JohLast]

13. that is what my street looks like. lived there 30+ years. no big deal.

[sadoldgirl]

16. I'll bet that he will move

pretty quickly without letting anyone know his new address. He seems to have collected
enough money to disappear for a while.

[NYC_SKP]

24. There is no way he will ever go back to that house. No way.

And he and wife will probably never buy another home anywhere under their own names.

I suspect some RW group will take care of any needs he has, maybe he'll have to keep any property in a friend's friend's name.

Sadly, he will never have to work again if he invests the $$$ he's getting right now wisely.

But he will never step foot in that house again, much less Crestwood, MO.

His face is very recognizable, he might not be able to get out much at all no matter where he moves.

17. In a 'reverse racism' sort of way...."There goes the neighborhood". Property values are going to

plummet.

That said - I hope every dog in the neighborhood shits on his lawn.

20. The moment I saw that "demonic face" with the right-cheek zit, I would put

a very large for sale sign in my front yard.
