RIDGEVILLE CORNERS, Ohio -- Officials in a small Ohio town turned down a church request to shelter people displaced by Hurricane Katrina. The minister of Christ Community Church, in Ridgeville Corners, is blaming some of the opposition on racial prejudice. The zoning appeals board rejected a request for a permit that would have allowed the church to renovate and provide temporary housing for up to 50 evacuees.
Some residents said they were worried the plan would change the character of the small village, home to fewer than 2,000 residents. They also expressed concern about safety and whether there were enough jobs to go around.
The minister said the church would do background checks on evacuees and that area employers assured him that jobs would be available. "
Like I said in an earlier blog. The victims of Katrina are left to fend for themselves, becuase people sterotype ethnic groups. Why would this town oppose a influx of 50 Katrina victims, maybe because those 50 individuals could be black, and the town residents don't want black people in their community, or as the town white people say it, so its less offense or blunt "the town says its going to change the character of the small vilage." The town is so concered about these fifty people? The church is going to do background checks on the fifty people. When have churchs done background checks? Does this church do background checks on its members? What kind of church is this? The last excuse the town gives is jobs. If these 50 people came into this community? These&nbs p;50 people might take away the jobs in the community. What ever happen to who ever is more qualifed should get the job. If there are two applaicants for a job. Who would the company hire? T he more qualified individual or the less qualified individual for the job. Is this town in Ohio worried that these 50 people would be more qualified then them in job skills, and the residents don't want to lose there jobs to these 50 people?
Help of victims of Katrina. No, people of Katrina America is like the african safari it's survival of the fittest, However if are non-white and is very well educated and still can't find a good job, This is how it really works, & nbsp;Everyone does it White conservatives take care of themselves first. All ethinic groups take care of the ethinicty first.
When it comes to employment if you qualified to do job and don't get and you find out someone is less qualified then you who gets the job, its who you know in the upper management of the company. If you know someone with some pull, then you are more likely to get the job, even though you are less qualified. The America game of life is set in the favor of the white people liberal and conservatives. However the conservatives benefit more they way the current rules are set up.
