ten to one he was born named for a dead president. Detroit was a black panther town during and after the '67 loot-first-burn-later proceedings.....this is also where Conyers was first seen on top of a car with a megaphone.

Detriot really was a Grand old City until then, and its been downhill ever since.....what you might THINK you saw on the tube with the Superbowl was a contrived sham....its 90% wasteland and dangerous everywhere unless they're putting on a show......they even got serious about arresting wanted felons during the month previous to the Bowl. There has been no competent and good-willed leadership since Coleman Young took office in about 1972.

What a train wreck. Jackson & Sharpton are probably clearing their schedules and once again Detroit's slip is showing.
