TAYLOR, Mich. - A chaotic scene erupted at the Taylor Human Services Center when the crowd waiting for a Section 8 Housing voucher distribution got out of control. The center is located at Eureka and Lange Roads. That´s between on Eureka, between Beech Daly and Inkster. Police say thousands of people from all over the area were at the center. Many were homeless, single moms, or disabled. They were hoping to get help paying for their housing from the government. 7 Action News is being told there were 1,000 vouchers available and 5,000 people showed up trying to get one.

Change you can believe in . . .
Not unlike the food lines seen in the former U.S.S.R.

Photos of the crowd please? What is your guess on what the photos may look like?

5000 show up for free housing. Wonder how many of them would show up for a job interview?

Drudge has video with the story. Not all the people were black, one black lady said she came last night after work, apparently many of the people were elderly and/or disabled. I´m sure it was young Obama voters who caused the disturbance, but rather than show their innate violence it shows more the incompetence of the government in the way this was planned. Take care of the elderly and the genuinely disabled first next time, then let the parasites have what´s left.

No one is making fun of genuine disabled.
They are mocking a government that is fostering dependency impossible to support.
Single moms -especially the Baby Mammas- are being preyed upon by irresponsible males and a dem Party that wants to keep them dependent upon the government. Julia.
As to the women with the oxygen tent- shouldn´t she have an appointment for housing?
A cattle call is no way to distribute housing- it should be based upon age, health and need.

Judge Judy does cases from time to time where the plaintiff is receiving section 8 housing, and is suing various individuals for for non payment of rent. (section 8 pays the rent directly to the landlord. And it is illegal to rent out rooms in section 8 housing.)
And Judge Judy gives an angry lecture to the plaintiff, under these circumstances, explaining that she (usually) is stealing money from the taxpayers.
Other cases will have the defendant boyfriend being sued for various bills. Same deal.. illegal.

The great recession (and number of under-employed lawyers) has increased the number of ´disabled´ dramatically.

Do the vouchers come with Obamaphones?

They should screen them by how many times they voted for BO in the last election.

Voted only once? Back of the line. Voted two times, next to the back. Runners up for top spot could be sorted by things like whether they used one or more names and how many precincts.

So if you voted for BO 7 times using 3 names it counts less than voting 7 times using 2 name ´cuz that´s a waste of non-maxxed names.
Runners up could get parole credits for their next crimes etc.

What #13 and #14 said. Along with everyone who can see what is going on in this Country now that the obama-stash is on full display. BTW, the "crowd" was shown on local news and I didn´t see any "disabled" people waiting for help. As for that poor little person who said she was "freezing cold"?

Of course they rioted. They voted for NØbama with the understanding that they would keep on getting all the free stuff they wanted.

How dare NØbama not personally assure that there were enough free apartments (with free big screen TV´s, free cable, free electricity, free food delivered daily, free home visits by NØbamacare doctors, etc, etc, etc).

By God (or NØbama their true messiah), they DESERVE the free stuff!!! They ´´earned it´´ by being born here and being loyal Demon-RAT voters!!!!!

The population in MI is what you think it is, but let´s not be so cynical. We are suppose to be Christians.

There is a new poverty in this country like we have not seen for many years.

Some days I visit a prayer site and the situation in this country is bad. There are many praying for jobs, any job, or praying they aren´t laid off, or they can´t keep their small business open any longer. Others are in fear of being homeless because they can´t pay increasing rent or being foreclosed. They have used up all of their resounces for medical bills and/or basic needs. Many can´t afford to repair their vehicles to drive to work because they have been unemployed for so long. Some have to live with relatives that have no room for them. It´s very sad reading those annonomous prayers. They aren´t asking for handouts online.

The elderly and disabled cannot manage on Social Security anymore with increased costs of everything. Unfortunately, single mothers move to the first of the line- just because.

Instead of fighting for gov. handouts, these stupid "single pregnant women" need to either use birth control (now paid for by the taxpayers) or force their brats´ fathers to support them. Can´t feed ´em, don´t breed ´em.

President Obama held a private meeting with top national security journalists on Thursday afternoon following his national security policy address at the National Defense University in Washington, POLITICO has learned. Present at the meeting were Thomas Friedman, the New York Times columnist; Gerald Seib, the Wall Street Journal´s Washington bureau chief; Fred Hiatt, the editorial page editor of the Washington Post; David Igantius, the Washington Post columnist; Jeffrey Goldberg, the Atlantic correspondent and Bloomberg View columnist; and Joe Klein, the Time Magazine columnist

The president may have forgotten something as he boarded Marine One this morning. On his way to the U.S. Naval Academy graduation ceremony on Annapolis, Md., President Obama didn’t return the salute of the marine standing guard at the door of Marine One, as he climbed the steps to the helicopter cabin. Obama soon ducked his head out, waved to the pilot, and jaunted back down the stairs to address the marine, shaking his hand. In the short video clip, one can’t hear the two men talking, so it’s unclear what exactly was said.

Put aside the politics, and the question of who-knew-what-when. There are two policy problems highlighted by the controversies at the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Justice. The first is the growth of 501(c)(4) groups into vehicles for anonymous and unlimited political spending. The second is the Obama administration’s overzealous prosecution of leaks. Unfortunately, for those who would like to see these policy problems resolved, the wrong party is angry about them and the wrong party is complacent.

She had to endure the public humiliation of his sexting scandal, but now it turns out that Anthony Weiner’s wife was the driving force behind his comeback. Huma Abedin put her feelings of betrayal aside and backed her husband to run for mayor of New York in this year’s election. She has also been working her close connections to the Clinton family to get Mr Weiner access to wealthy and powerful donors who he so badly needs. Having been frozen out of politics when he quit his Congressional seat, Mr Weiner is now effectively relying on his wife

The 50-year-old southern regional representative of Jacksonville’s New Black Panther Party for Self Defense was arrested Monday on charges of false imprisonment and resisting an officer without violence, according to the Sheriff’s Office. Mikhail Shareef Muhammad of North Myrtle Avenue remained held on $200,000 bail Wednesday, according to jail records. Police were called just after 2 p.m. by a friend of Muhammad’s wife, Claudia Lizeth, who said he wasn’t willing to let her leave and was afraid for her life, according to the arrest report. Officers went to Muhammad’s home, where Lizeth mouthed, “Help me” to a sergeant.

BUFFALO — A western New York man has pleaded guilty to filing more than 100 tax returns under the names of people who had recently died. The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Buffalo says 42-year-old John Berry Jr. of Dunkirk pleaded guilty Tuesday to making a false claim against the United States. Prosecutors say he filed 122 false income tax returns in 2008 and 2009 seeking refunds totaling $218,000. Authorities say more than $92,000 was deposited directly into his bank account. Berry faces up to five years in prison when he’s sentenced in August.

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”
