Quite honestly, I wouldn't be adverse to living there again -- even under the current circumstances.    



Got a couple more mommies out there too?

Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and
speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

It is not all gloom and doom for Detroit.  There are some silver linings in the clouds including some new manufacturing firms setting up shop in the city.  



Let's guess, it's the city taxing the homeowners and handing out money to rich developers.   Just like Schenectady.


Keep shaking those pom poms.  And when the welfare dries up, your mommies are gone and you have no job, then what?

Quoted from CICERO


When the president suggests race affects the justice system, then it would be logical that race affects all of society.  That is the damage caused by the politicizing of the Zimmerman trial.  Race is once again used to blame what is perceived as negative outcomes.  It's wrong, but when the highest office in the land uses it, it trickles down to the ignorant.


Heartburnkid is definitely among the ignorant.

How does a government body file bankrupcy with a government court to decide and not the people they are going to default on?  Shouldn't the residents of Detroit get whatever assets the city has returned to them?

Yeah, a government of the people.  And people went crazy about ENRON.  Where did the money go?

Slave on slaves!

Let's not be too hard on the Kid. We keep hearing that we need to have 'conversations' about race, but any honest discussion turns into an opportunity to bash some white person or sometimes a black person for not being PC enough. From where HBK stands, I'm sure it looks the way he says, but I would like to point out that correlation is not necessarily causation. Yes, areas with a high concentration of black residents have a tendency to become not so nice places to live. That is true. Attacking someone for noticing this fact does nothing to improve anything. HBK, there are an awful lot of factors contributing to what you have noticed, but I think one of the largest problems is that black neighborhoods attract the Poverty Industry which preys on them and it isn't their fault. Then for every politician who is a Corey Booker you get ones of the same ilk as our own, only black, they are in it to maintain the status quo and keep all that free government money flowing to friends and family. The private programs are just as bad, many of them. They do very well for themselves while allegedly doing good, and when nothing gets better, they have a built-in excuse, white people are racist. Not them, of course, the do-gooders aren't racist like those other white people.
We just recently saw the President pull this crap, a drive-by attack on white people at an unscheduled news conference on a Friday. Disgraceful. Anybody who calls him on it is a racist, though.

I made a post about this but I lost it somehow. BT, this didn't make me chuckle, it made me want to take all of McCheese's dimwitted supporters and lock them in a room and make them watch this over and over and in between replays blare THIS MEANS YOU over a loudspeaker. I'd throw McCheese and cronies in there as well, but they already know what they are doing and don't care, so they wouldn't be learning anything. Maybe after awhile their stupid admirers would wise up and turn on them. I knew there had to be other people somewhere who get this.
Maybe we could use Proctor's for a reeducation center. Better yet, that IMAX place.
