I chose the word “Fantasy” to avoid calling FReepers liars.
Detroit already has no-go zones: the inner city black neighborhoods. There are probably a lot fewer carjackings, muggings, rapes, and murders in Dearborn than in the inner city. I'm not saying that immigration from Arab countries (or ANY third world country) is a good thing, but their communities are still a big step up socioeconomically from most black communities in the region.
That I agree with.
Being called a liar I don’t, and neither should you.
I agree that Arab Christians don’t deserve to be tarred with the same brush as Muslims. Most Lebanese Catholics that I’ve known and dealt with have been fine people (with absolutely no sympathy for their Islamist former countrymen).
I live in a part of Pittsburgh that used to have a Maronite Church (it has since relocated to a new building a few miles away). Many Lebanese and Syrian Christians settled in the area as a result. They are very fine, peaceful people. And I know they aren’t terrorists because when they don’t feel like driving to their new church they attend Mass at mine (the Maronite Church is in full communion with the Roman Catholic Church)
Arab Christians in Michigan FAR outnumber muslims and that is also true in Dearborn. Most churches in Dearborn have signs in english and arabic writing because the older immigrants struggle to learn english. It was a Dearborn priest who was recently chosen to be Bishop or something in Baghdad.
Michigan has fallen to about 8th in overall number of Muslims among the states yet the popular fantasy is that most Muslims are in Michigan.
As far as the muslims who are in Dearborn, a former classmate of mine is an FBI agent stationed in Detroit. He says the Dearborn Muslims are the most closely monitored in the world. Unfortunately he says that there are far more dangerous muslims living everywhere from Virginia, Minnesota, Texas, California etc.
No women to be seen, anywhere. Where are the feminists on this? Micro aggression and blatant hate everywhere. They should be rabid, foaming at the mouth.
“Actually Dearborn is one of the safest areas around Detroit.”
That’s changing significantly. The urban yoot is infiltrating and now I am very gladd to have a big ole coon hound guarding my house!
“On 9-11 they lined the streets by the thousands and cheered when the twin towers fell...”
That is a flat out lie.
That is a flat out lie.
Were you there???
Yes and I still am.
I’ve talked to people first hand who were there and they have no reason to lie about it...Are you a muzlim???
In the no-go slums of Dearborn, they're already training for Jihad.
First, the lawn, then our heads!
Yikes! I bet that woman is about to die out mowing her lawn in that getup on a hot day.
At least the house and yard are nicely kept.
Middle eastern Christians have a long history in Dearborn, southeastern Michigan and into Ohio.
Danny Thomas is from Dearborn.
You’re right Deefield it is. SE Michigan.
Helen Thomas was born in Kentucky but mostly raised in Detroit. Jamie Farr is from just across the state line in Toledo. George Noory is from Detroit.
