Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It wasn't me that jumped to it. The link between zoning, redlining, and segregation was established decades before I was born. Local governments find ways to zone out minorities that they do not want. Less low cost housing, refusing to allow single homes being converted into two family homes, strategically placing school busing limits, preventing religious buildings being built.
Just in my city, someone put up a sign in Arabic on their house and some Karen tried to pass an ordinance against signs on houses zoned for single family. She was at least honest about the why of it, "it is unamerican" according to her. Meanwhile we are surrounded by cities on all sides that have dispensaries as well as outdoor smoking cafes. Yet we don't have them. All that lost revenue and an affront to equality just so some shitstain boomer doesn't have to see a POC.
