College housing

[Truth]

Stopping over at the ever so intelligent postings at IO, I saw this:

Note: SOON TO BE HERE IN OSWEGO ONCE "ALL" THAT WEST SIDE NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSING OPENS UP BECAUSE OF THOSE NEW 1,000 BEDROOM STUDENT HOUSING APARTMENT/DORMITORY COMPLEXES THAT ARE BEING BUILT ON JOHNSON ROAD AND ON CAMPUS. LOTS OF GREAT "BIG" HOUSES WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR ALL THE GREAT "BIG" SUMO WRESTLER WELFARE MOMMAS TO MOVE "ALL" THEIR KIDS AND "ALL" THEIR GANG - BANGER "BABY-DADDY" WITH THEM. PEOPLE IN OSWEGO WON'T KNOW WHAT HIT THEM UNTIL ITS TO LATE, (RIGHT CONNIE!!!!) Its gonna be "HUUUGGGE"Oswego.

Couldn't those "landlords" employ certain tactics to avoid "low welfare mommas" from moving in. I'm no expert on this stuff but right now they are using scare tactics on Oswego residents. I'm sure they can use their brains to ensure respectable individuals move in. Maybe if they were aware of certain laws, they could protect themselves and the community.

And not every one who has a below average income level is a less than desirable tenant. Some people do everything in their power to provide a respectable home life.

You are so right Truth.

I know people in 3rd of a million dollar homes here and they are miserable. Your home is were your heart is, where you feel comfortable, and hopefully have someone or family to share it with.

I know many single parents, including myself, who worked very hard to provide a decent home for their children. Not everybody has things handed to them. And just because you don't have what some people here in Oswego think you need to have to live in one of ther homes they rent, it doesn't mean you are an undesirable tenant. There are people in this town who are cruel when it comes to those who don't meet their standards.Those are the a$$ho!es of our city. Some of them are our 'so called millionaire' ;D slumlords.

Big wallets usually means small minds, especially in this little town.

The real problem is that these well off landlords with money and/or assets really do think that the rest of working class citizens of the Oswego area are stupid.
