How many of ya'll actually live in the area, because of the stuff you're saying doesn't make sense. PG county has like 3 or 4 of the richest black communities in the country. So there is a lot of black money to be spent. Hell, there is a lot of black money already being spent at the National Harbor. They likely wouldn't have even put that casino there if they weren't banking at the harbor and outlets. I'm not saying they aren't trying to get tourist and gambling fantatic money too, but you can't just ignore the black dollars.

again i said they would and expected to get the black dollar but their main focus for building that casino/hotel/harbor/etc. was not for black people or their money.....but every penny helps -

? ? Naylor Rd ain't no better...that whole part of the south side is ? soon as you hit Suitland Parkway. At least the beef with Skyline died down over the years though. Crazy thinking back how nuts we were to be beefing with the neighborhood literally on the other side of the street. We stayed getting into ? with Skyline ? and you knew never to go on that side of the street alone. Only neutral spots everyone respected was the carryout on their side of the road and the Chevron gas station on our side. I spent a few days in HS sneaking through Skyline to ? with this chick I went to school with lol.... -

It's kind of a pointless convo then. Because for something like this, the goal is to appeal to as many people as you can. Casinos are primarily for gamblers, but they put in high tier restaurants, clubs/lounges, event auditoriums, shops, and other things to try and get something from everyone. So no, I wouldn't say that the black people were their primary focus, but I wouldn't say black people are any less of focus than anyone else. -
agreed
