    Detroit has been run by Democrats since 1957. It was the ultimate laboratory for modern liberalism. This is what America looks forward to with more Obamaism.

    Liberal Utopia should announce a free home give away to any leftist who wants to live in paradise. They have to actually live in them for as long as it takes to build the walls and sniper towers around the city.

    But the pravda tells everyone it was conservatives who ran it into the ground......and at LEAST 50% of the “low information voters”—who make up the majority of the country—BUY it!!

    Reminds me of Beneath the Planet of the Apes. Burned out city structures and this wasn’t even done by a military action. Only the actions of the liberal left and those that applauded it.

    Although I had seen the photos previously they were well worth a second look particularly when viewed through the filter of obamumism.
Thanks

    Interestingly, there are a lot of books at the abandoned library. Looters must not have been interested in them.

    Reminds me of the "Gears of War" video game series. 
I think they call it "beauty ruined". d:^)

    Because the subject is how the weather is distroying the structures.

    And every realtor in Detroit says the same thing.
“Yeah, it’s a fixer-upper.”

    Those photos are so creepy that they’re downright inspirational. You can almost see the demonic entities lurking in those vast, crumbling interiors.

    I just googled Detroit, zoomed in to street view, and took a *cruise* around town. Very depressing...abandoned buildings, hardly any cars...freeways all but empty. Sad.
