“To dump on all Italians who live in Carroll Gardens as you people are doing is wrong.”
I, for one, wasn’t dumping on ALL of them. Just the ones who decorated the front yard.

You hit the nail on the head, here all these morons making the grossest ethnic remarks and then saying that others are bigoted or worse: “republican” oh nooo!
To dump on all Italians who live in Carroll Gardens as you people are doing is wrong. And you consider them bigots and uneducated? Please.
Most of the Carroll Gardens republicans moved to Staten Island a long time ago, but there are still quite a few left.
So, how long is it going to take for everyone to figure out that the waterfront is still mob run too?
“Two more elected officials this week compared the current mortgage crisis to the Great Depression, an era that’s been brought up increasingly frequent as thousands lose their homes. Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney said at a City Council hearing Monday that some economists think the number of families who will lose their homes will exceed the Great Depression, reported Newsday. She said of the 26,000 adjustable-rate mortgages in the city examined by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in November, only 57 percent were current, and 19 percent were in foreclosure. Congressman Gregory Meeks said at the same hearing that the nation could be headed toward an ‘economic downturn our nation has not seen since the Great Depression.'”
Nobody is “narrow minded” who hates Bush. They’re just “minded”, period. They have a brain and can use it.
11:50’s attitude and view of his fellow citizens is pretty appalling and narrow-minded. He is probably too young to remember what fascists sounded like, but they sounded like him. Hillarious that he probably considers himself a liberal.
I think 11:30 is referring to Carroll Gardens. I have only been twenty years so I am not an old timer but Carroll Gardens is a democratic stronghold as surprising as that might be to some. All you have to do is check out the Independent Neighborhood Democrats.
