DETROIT -- A member of Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick's staff filed a police report claiming Detroit City Council Pro Tem Monica Conyers threatened him with a gun at a board meeting on Wednesday. Conyers' chief of staff, Sam Riddle, told Local 4 that Conyers never threatened him with a real gun and what she said was that she had a bigger gun than Milton, and the gun was her husband. Riddle said she was referring to a political gun.

Conyers is the wife of U.S. Rep. John Conyers, D-Detroit.

Milton also reported that Conyers said, "I am going to have my brothers f#%k you up."

I say throw all of these race-pimp political thugs out now. Unfortunately the Detroit electorate keeps voting them in despite the fact that Detroit is at or near the bottom of every measure of City Gov’t performance. A real mess.

LOL - I think they were already pulled and now Kilpatrick and his honest to goodness goons have control over the whole thing - Even to the point of using City Attorneys for his own personal agendas - Sort of like the Clinton’s.

Moronica Conyers at it again. When you’re royalty, or married to royalty, you can do those things.

Such a rich culture ... adding so much to the fabric of America. Fabric suitable for a jock strap, at least.

Yep. I've lived in Bloomfield Hills almost ten years and, besides going to and from the Airport I've been in Detroit exactly five times - And the Airport is not in the City Limits.

As they say, there is no there, there. Or at least nothing enough to risk a car jacking, robbery at the pump, etc. It is a real mess and these clowns spend their time on junkets, perks, personal expenses on the City's dime, etc.

Sounds like a place Guiliani could clean up. I don’t think he’s that busy these days ...

It’s like Washington, D.C., where they reelected Marion Barry after his drug bust. The Detroit pols are filled with corruption, and proud of it.

It’s not just the city’s dime. Throw in revenue sharing from Wayne County, the State, and Feds as well. Feel better now ? Kwame thanks youall.

You are right. However, you did forget the 40% rise in water that we get from Detroit to all the localities in Oakland County (Detroit is in Wayne County).

These people are crooks that make Tamany Hall and Chicago look like alter boys. The only way they keep it up is voters of the same mind-set and intelligence as those in NOLA who elected Jefferson again or those in Fla who elected Alcie Hastings, etc.

Throw in our sewerage rate as well. And don’t forget the upgrade on Cobo we will pay for.
