Ahh, a right-wing ghetto. How nice.

You trimmed the part where I said it would be like a republican
running for mayor in DC. That didn't happen in 2014 at all.

I am also not sure how a town dominated by communities full of half
million to several million dollar houses is really a ghetto tho.



Ghetto has more than the meaning someone who has not studied the liberal
arts might give it.

As an example, one of the towns I lived in had a large section know as
"The Golden Ghetto," because it was where most of the area's doctors,
lawyers, factory owners, et cetera, lived.


Give it up Harry. You know as well as anyone what the common definition
of a "ghetto" is. You are just playing games.



It would take no effort to produce cites for definitions of "ghetto"
that go beyond the "common" understanding of it here. But why bother?

Used in common, modern conversation (or writing) I'll betcha 99 out of
100 people with degrees in English would define a "ghetto" as being an
economically depressed area populated primarily by a minority group.

You are probably the only lib arts major on the planet that tries to
put another meaning on the word ... and only when you are losing an
argument.
