People live where they are comfortable living,or, barring that, where they can afford to live. Don't state "facts" that aren't factual. You don't want to appear Trumplike.

I don't care, but it is a fact. there are precincts in Chicago that only have black people again just a fact. again this doesn't just happen. long standing government policy has an effect on communities. I'm just sayin. don't be mad at me . I didn't have anything to do with it. I'm not mad at you I'm sure you didn't either.
