They simply cannot tolerate truth. You got that right.

Didn’t he declare that the riots following the 1984 Tigers World Series win were caused by white suburban youths?

My local rag ran an op-ed about the joys of "free" socialized health care. My response:
Feagler says, "We do a rotten job of supplying health care to those we send to fight (in Iraq)". What makes him think the same government will do any better in supplying health care to 300 million Americans?

I think it would be better off if Al Capone was still running Cicero.

Detrit IS a disaster. The city may have a beautiful skyline but its a rotten shell. People want to get out when they can and every year Detroit is losing population. Kiss Mo'town good-bye.

In addition they routinely and hypocritically ignore the seething hatred and bigotry that is routinely projected on whites. They act like all blacks & mestizo’s just love white people and if the “evil” whites would just quit hating Nirvana would be reached.

You can buy several houses in the city for the price of a VW Phaeton but no one in their right mind would live there. For the love of God, if you need to live in the area, do yourself a favor and immigrate to Canada and settle in Windsor. It has everything Detroit will never have in this lifetime.

And it also demonstrates that a Black Stalinist run city could kill and ruin more Black lives, hopes, and aspirations than the wettest Klansmans fantasies.Ditto S. Africa, ditto Rhodesia, ditto post-colonial Africa.

driven through downtown Detriot Dont stop at red lights in certain areas. Best thing is to get a ticket, sometimes.

If you all think New Orleans is an isolated disaster think again.
Detroit is as bad as is Miami and many other near uninhabitable crapholes.

I wish they’d take some of those old rides from Coney Island and put them at the west end of Long Beach. But I’m a gooey nostalgia freak.
I’ll also note that those “local Russians” are mostly mobbed up, right? Your basic Brighton Beach goombah-ski, in velour or vinyl “athletic suit” with gold chains knotted in the chest hair and a bluetooth jammed in one ear.
Oh my...was that prejudiced? LOL
