(CNN)"Welcome to Freedom!" exclaims real estate agent Ashley Scott as she surveys the nearly 97 acres of land that she and a group of 19 Black families purchased in August.

"I'm hoping that it will be a thriving safe haven for people of color, for Black families in particular," Scott says.

The land sits just East of Macon in rural Wilkinson County, Georgia. Scott and her friend, investor and entrepreneur Renee Walters, didn't initially plan on buying a large plot of land, but they had a vision that was clear -- to create a safe space for their Black families.

"Being able to create a community that is thriving, that is safe, that has agriculture and commercial businesses that are supporting one another and that dollars circulating in our community, that is our vision."

.........

"Watching our people protesting in the streets, while it is important, and I want people to stay out in the streets, bringing attention to the injustices of Black people. We needed to create a space and a place where we could be a village, again, a tribe, again," Scott said. "We wanted to create this safe space where we can address our own issues and concerns."

Imagine if 19 WHITE families bought land exclusively for White families and told the world that it was to get away from the negro's and affirm their Whiteness - would CNN be so charitable to their endeavor???

So segregation isn't such a bad idea after all, it seems.

Seriously, if I, being white, am going to be so assured by critics that I am a racist because of the color of my skin, then it means there's nothing I can do about it. Nothing. At all. I'm a permanent racist. No redemption is possible.

And if that's the case, then white and black people simply cannot live together. Ever. Segregation is the best and only solution.

I say these families should go for. Create their town and prohibit any whites from entering, or at least prohibit their buying and selling in it. See how it goes.

White people cannot be segregated, we are the "massa" race or some such nonsense (google "blacks can't be racist"). Nothing short of genocide will appease these folks.

I'm going to laugh as I lay dying of multiple gunshot wounds as antifa are herded into boxcars.

Me too. I suppose you could do it in an airplane if you didn't rip the wings off.

I think they dropped the Pinto from a helicopter, if I remember right.
