The content added to this article by Watkinsian makes unfounded racist assertions and libels this community. --Buaidh 20:37, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

The content referred to above has resided at Montbello, Denver for the past year; I was only intending to consolidate the existing article with the new, superfluous article created by Buaidh. The only statement that refers to race is the one that says the neighborhood has a disproportionately high percentage of certain minority groups. This is a fact, not a "racist assertion".

Buaidh is correct. Associating Montbello with "local Denver street gangs" because of its "high minority population" is extremely offensive. No references have been cited to prove that, and just about everything in the article is unfounded and only speculation. Being from Montbello, I can safely say that the article Watkinsian was posting is amazingly ignorant. It only serves to belittle the people of Montbello.--Invaderblake 19:39, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
