Water ("Is a Human Right that White People Must Pay for") World: The NAACP Gets Involved on Behalf of 83% Black Detroit Citizen's Refusal to Pay Their Water Bills

The collapse of Detroit was racial, with high rates of black crime motivating white flight. 

The city is now less than eight percent white and nearly 85 percent black. 

Darwin's Shadow: There's not much else to say about an 83 percent city black city descending into third world levels of civilization

It's a metropolis whose public offices (judicial, executive, and legislative) are completely dominated by black employees and black department heads.

Detroit is not union run. 

Detroit is not Democrat run. 

Detroit is black-run, for the expressed benefit of blacks, and only blacks. 

The following story needed this introduction, for clarity and transparency. [NAACP: Detroit water shutoffs are racially motivated, Washington Times, 7-22-14]:

A class-action suit has been filed against the city of Detroit for water shutoffs that the NAACP Legal Defense Fund says are racially motivated. 

The Detroit Water and Sewerage Department stopped service to about 7,200 buildings with overdue bills in June, compared to 1,570 in the same month last year. The issue gained national attention last month after activists appealed to the United Nations for help. 

There are concerns the shutoffs are “being done in a discriminatory fashion,” the Defense Fund’s Veronica Joice told a local CBS affiliate. “They should at least take a look at whether there’s a better way to do this that doesn’t affect the most vulnerable citizens — the majority of whom are African-American here in Detroit.”Attorney Alice Jennings, who filed the lawsuit on behalf of Detroit residents, agreed the shutoffs were a racial issue. 

“These companies are basically Caucasian companies,” she told the station. “The folks who are being cut off are almost one hundred percent African-American.” 

Detroitannounced Monday that it would suspend its aggressive policy of cutting off water for the next 15 days, but the NAACP said in a press release Monday that it’s not enough. They also want the financial aid program for Detroit’s neediest people to be reformed. 

Disclosure of the 15-day moratorium was made in bankruptcy court — three days after an estimated 2,000 people took to downtown streets to protest the shutoffs. “Avengers” actor Mark Ruffalo made a surprise appearance at the rally, hoping to “shed a little light on what’s happening” in Detroit.

Pay for individual black people's water bills or else collectively make demands:

Reform or we march. 

March, and if our demands aren't met we riot. 

America is held hostage. 

The "folks who are being cut off are almost one hundred percent African-America," Alice Jennings, because almost one hundred percent of those with balances due on their unpaid water bills in 83 percent black Detroit are black...

Our future is held hostage, with the handcuffs of blackness ensuring our civilization is shackled to the  level of "civilization" blacks can attain. 

For years, the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department has allowed unpaid water bills to pile up and free water to flow to primarily black people, but the city's bankruptcy in 2013 forced a cessation of this odd accounting oversight. 

Probably because someone knew black people, long accustomed to getting free water (and their way) wouldn't take too kindly to being told "no." [NAACP Legal Defense Fund: Detroit Water Service Shutoffs Are Discriminatory, CBS Detroit, 7-21-14]:

Talking to WWJ’s Sandra McNeil shortly after the announcement, [Detroit Water and Sewerage Department] spokesman Greg Eno admitted there’s no doubt that the department has been lax over the years, letting the bills pile up. 

He said people who now owe more than they can afford are being asked to come in and apply for assistance through the Water Affordability Program. 

Eno said, through, it’s not just free money. 

“It also teaches them, or works into their budget, monies that would be dedicated to their water bill, because they have to make a contribution every month,” he explained. “This is not a program where you get everything given to you and you contribute nothing.” 

Eno stressed, however, that not everyone in need will be able to get help. 

“We don’t have, you know, a bottomless cup of funds,” he said, adding that’s why it’s important that affected customers come in as soon as possible.

The Detroit Water and Sewerage Department aided the bankruptcy of Detroit by being lenient, admittedly for years, to primarily black customers who didn't pay their water bills.

The water kept flowing, as the bills piled up...

The Day the EBT Cards Runs Out is the moment nature reminds us all the fury of living continuously on the Malthusian Edge.

For years, large segments of the black population of Detroit has enjoyed virtually free water, with the cost of water redistributed to those stupid enough to paying for the service; now, because this service has been disconnected to those unwilling to pay their bill (an unfortunate side effect of the audit into why Detroit went bankrupt), the NAACP has declared enforcing the concept of payment for a service/good to be "discriminatory"...

Darwin's Shadow is falling across not just Detroit, but all of America.
