Forty years ago, riots erupted in Detroit. Since then, its all been downhill. The city keeps losing population and the area down the Lodge Freeway, you'll see mile after mile after mile of burnt out housing. Just like out of "Blade Runner." Detroit ain't staging a revival any time soon. As Debbie Schlussel said it, "Osama Bin Laden has a better chance of getting elected President than Detroit gas of arising from the dead." Touche!

The riot was just strike one. Strike two and three was 70s cross neighborhood school busing for racial integration. Whites left the city by the thousands.

The city is losing population by the tens of thousands, every year.

Sure, but they're only lost for a while, eventually the body surfaces in the river.
