[StBernard] Parish will appeal Berrigan's ruling

[Westley Annis]

"Parish appeals ruling -- St. Bernard officials on Friday continued to voice
their position that the
288 apartments would weaken an already unstable real estate market."

Indeed, what better way to shift the political structure of neighborhoods
and communities than to "order" that OB1Knobi supporters flood the community
with its own political base? By ordering liberals into communities two
things will happen:

Firstly, it's like "forced busing", favoring a quota of those from out of
one community into another sparks a paradigm-shift (Definition: Change of
one way of thinking to another--one conceptual world view is replaced by
another). Liberals ideology into St. Bernard's community will be undermined
continuously with radical thinkers who will replace God-fearing,
conservative values.

Secondly, it will succeed into "Barnstorming" to the liberal press (remember
St. Bernard has a window of opportunity open to the liberal world who are
itching to take advantage of St. Bernard's weakness--the love of community,
conservative ideology, one which pre-K had less crime, less trouble-makers).
The liberal media wants incidents in their favor which to leap upon as an
example to anyone who opposes forced housing as a way of life to be
detrimental to southern communities. 

If the community is forced to accept a way of life it did not have prior to
a disaster, the real recovery is blemished. People without a doubt want
their community as much back to the way they left it pre-K. To be "scissored
up" into sections of multiplexes, with the N'awlins crowd trampling through
their community is a slap in the face to local rights (and states rights to
decide how their communities are to be structured with housing. (remember,
not a thing was done about Nagin who wanted a "chocolate city", but have a
moratorium on apartment dwellers forced into a community with low standards
(many believe it is the former "project dwellers" from former N'awlins
trying to pick up where they left off. One can remember that these same
people didn't want their projects demolished after being told the buildings
would be bulldozed by Nagin's order).

Therefore, the liberal judge who doesn't have to live in any community but
that of a "gatehouse" in an exquisite area location would have no problem
ordering others to accept that living condition. Within a short while, a
once plentiful "Village Square" will become scattered Village Squares
anywhere and everywhere in St. Bernard. All were opposed pre-K of the
Village Square located in the middle of downtown Chalmette where kids
attended movies, businesses became splattered with "foreign-speaking"
cheapened convenience stories (aka "quickie-marts), dollar stores to attract
and target market the area's (Village Square) inhabitance, etc. In the few
years before Katrina, the Village Square even changed its name to escape the
stigma attached by the poison which spilled into the neighborhoods.

Now, the battleground is set but a few blocks toward New Orleans which no
doubt will make its trek eastward toward Chalmette, Meraux, Violet and
beyond until the liberals get what they want.

No doubt.
