  1. You are a good historian, but you need to see it from another side. Black people still are abit angry against whites. I'm not as angry because I don't go throw racism, because the Hispanic and Arab in me show more then the black and black people don't know I'm half black they think I'm Puerto Rican.

    But to get back on subject it matter because it shows the city is finally mixing and people are moving closer to downtown. And thisaffect the african american community living there by many "xenophobia" at first but that of couse will cool off between them, but it's good the city is mixing and growing downtown.

    Glad your back TBurtan or as I call 'im or 'er TBurn!

  2. Dude, my family lives and Jackson Ward and my Garandmother's from Jackson Ward and she's Black and We've seen how the Caucasian population in the area has boomed since 2004.

    On the other thing you said I said about I95, I64, and I85 do not go under what I was talking about the population boom, I maybe didn't seperate them. We do have all of the highways because all of them come into our metro. Not for a population boom. Now in Short Pump you can accually say that Highway project is for Population boom because of West broad villiage and the house that are going there and, for what is already there traffic jams and rush hour. And everyone nows that more homes and people will move to that area.

    Also Jackson Ward North and South (Up top - Down Bottom) were both conected and the part of jackson ward around 2 st is what I'm talling about. I know your not saying I dumb, but to make it clear I'm not. I call it by how I see it and how it effects the area around me not in Henrico not to put them out, but I live in the city.

    I hope know you understand where I'm coming from.

  3. It's looks as if news was wrong about Norfolk shrinking and having only about 100,000 people live within city limits. It looks as if Norfolk isn't becoming a tle town after all. Y'all are doing good. You do need more restuarant downtown and retail.

  4. Great Short Pump. One day I think they're going to brack from Henrico and become the City of Short Pump. I think, it's just a suggestion, I think we should make a differant forum for Short Pump because of its development boom. Soon by 2010-2012 we won't be calling it suburban anymore.

  5. I'm glade you agreed with me.

    Read all the facts, not half. And the braves of course could still charge their minds.

    I came on this site to get facts, all the facts.

    So I just bring it back up so people don't go around saying they're staying then the next day they say they will be leaving soon or in some time. I want them to stay, I accually go to the games so don't came at me and say I'm wishing them away.

    Accually they also said less then 2 years ago, about 3-5 months ago that they didn't want to play at the old Diamond anymore.

    But also I said, they will most likely stay now, because VCU is helping out.

    I love it when someone tells me how I live or how I look at things... especially when they are wrong. Sure there's some chance the Braves would leave, but there's also some chance that a massive tidal wave will rock the entire eastern seaboard. I don't think anyone has left out any information, it's pretty evident that 2 years ago the braves said they didn't want to play at the diamond. The region also said 2 years ago that it was going to fix up the Diamond. People can change their minds. The Braves are still focused on Richmond so I have no idea why you keep bringing it up. And if they do leave, so be it. Recent articles have not mentioned the braves wanting to leave Richmond, so that's why it hasn't come up, and why we aren't all dooming and glooming.

    Cedeho, I'm not wishing them away, I want them to stay.

    We can't wish for them to stay and forget other information that says they may leave. Y'all are only reading what you want to read (that they are staying) we still can't garentee that. I'm not saying they are leaving soon but they may leave in the long run, if things don't get better.

    I just want you all to realize that. The braves haven't made their minds up yet. This isn't their finally say in where they go, or stay in Richmond. And plus Richmond and Henrico are in the same metro area.

    Now read this dude... THE BRAVES HAVE NOT YET MADE UP THEIR MINDS YET!

    THEY STILL MAY LEAVE, SO BE READY FOR IT IF IT HAPPENS!

    I"M NOT WISHING THEM AWAY, STOP FORGETING INFORMATION. I DON'T JUST USE THE GOOD SOUNDING INFO, BUT I ALSO READ THE BAD SOUNDING ONES THAT DON'T GIVE ALOT OF HOPE.

    YOU ALL NEED TO EXPECT THE WORST, AND HOPE FOR THE BEST. AND THE WAY TO DO THAT IS TO "KNOW YOUR FACTS AND BE PREPARED"

    That's all I gotta say. I want to know the WHOLE story of things, that's all there is to it dudes.

    I agree with that editor too, eandslee.

    But VCU coming in we could still keep it at the Diamond now.

  7. Yes, but also they said that they were not staying at the diamond. they want a new one. Which I think that what VCU and they city will be doing, but the Braves still may not go a long with that. And I would hate it if they leave the city for the county.

    But also the mayor hasn't talk to the braves yet. but if they do, we shall see who's right. Which you could be because I only really watch newses 8 and 6 and I go by what they say, it could be differant on 12. But sometimes we can't be going around saying the braves are staying because they said before they were going to stay and leave in a few years if they don't get what they want. So of course they'll say there they're stayting in Richmond, but that doesn't mean they're staying for long or they're staying in the city. So we'll just have to wait and hear form the braves (I hope this afternoon).

  8. I can't believe the Mayor may be running the Braves out of Town!

    He should, like i said before, gone with there original Idea for a ballpark in Shockoe Bottom, which needs it alot, Traffic down there wouldn't have been as bad as he thought because of the Highways and freeways that go throw downtown. What do y'all think? I think he's a good mayor, he just doesn't think in the long run!
