Berwyn Police

 Anyone who is less than happy over the way blacks are treated in Berwyn can easily petition city hall to have their building declared Section 8 housing. Then they can live there with a clear conscious that Berwyn will shortly resemble some of the worst parts of Chicago.

Anyone with half and education knows that when blacks move in crime goes up, property values go down. Look at what has happened in Detroit, for heaven sakes!

  That statement is a bunch of racist hogwash. Have housing values in Oak Park gone down because the black population has increased?

I fell and broke my ankle in my backyard in September.  Called the police department and they were there in minutes and EMTs took me by ambulance to Loyola.  They were great and quick.  If something happens in Chicago who knows when they would come.  You don't want Berwyn to resemble Chicago crime wise and service wise.  I have found Berwyn to be a fairly run municipality.  I don't actually live there but own a building there that my son lives in.

Yes, golly, why *are* property values lower in black neighborhoods?

Well, MarkBerwyn's post about the Campbells' attempt to live in Berwyn does prove part of your point. Crime did go up when they moved here, and tried to live among the superior race. It was a good thing that the more civilized people were here to remind the Campbells that they were not human, and did not deserve to live as such.

Bullshit.  Section 8 vouchers are handled by the county, not the City of Berwyn.  I know quite a few decent people who have Section 8.  I'm glad they live near me.
