TitsMcGee Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Well what do you really expect when Michigan has the highest unemployment in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttogreh Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 This is starting to get ridiculous. Detroit has a population density of 2,650 people per square kilometer. That is literally half of what it used to be. There's nobody left to kill. Detroit's crime problem will solve itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n0Mad Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 The news has been bad for decades, but there may yet be hope for Detroit. The city's new mayor, Kenneth V. Cockrel Jr., assumed office on Sept. 19, 2009--and hasn't committed a single felony. He assumed office in the future? Way to proofread the article editor.

And the reason I say it has to do with the jobs now is because there aren't any. Crime rates go up when there is high poverty. The reason Flint was the murder capital was because of the high gang violence. Please don't assume because I'm only 23 that I don't know some things.

Think.....what OTHER large city had to count structure fires (YEARLY) in the hundreds (not tens & one but in hundreds).....DETROIT...as a City-being...is suicidal! HAHA! .....these things don't even COUNT the massive numbers of peoples that are lying around individual destroying their lives with alcohol, crack cocaine & heroin, oh yeah...meth is big (& quiet).... DETROIT IS SUICIDAL! Don't argue with me either on this point! I have lost more peers than I can count to the D....to all kinds of shit! This place is fuckin' nuts! *sings* It's so..cold in the D... *di-di----di-di-di------di-di--di-di----di-di-di--di-di--etc.* OLD NEWS!

Still think I'm talkin' about tiny lil' Flint? According to the FBI, Flint has one of the highest crime rates in Michigan (5538 incidents/100,000 residents). In the 1980s and 90's Flint was nicknamed the murder capital of the U.S. Mock away if you feel you must, I really don't give a rats ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev.Reverence Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Mock away if you feel you must, I really don't give a rats ass. Everyone wants the title...I don't know why...there are articles that claim the D, Washington DC, Chicago, & NYC as the murder capitol, depending on the year...but find me 801 fires set in 1 night anywhere but here. It was not about Flint. It was about Detroit...& I don't think that murders are the only thing I was talkin' about was it? *waggles butt in the air* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev.Reverence Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 That was not the point...Detroit is in the originally posted article so I concentrate on that. Otherwise....I would have gone here. LINK Now how about re-addressing my question Tits? How about this... LINK America’s Most Dangerous Cities - Detroit Tops The ListPosted April 24th, 2009 by Piyush Bakshi - 1,224 views A detailed study on the most dangerous cities in America carried out by Forbes magazine has thrown up some alarming facts and insights. The study, based FBI statistics, has revealed that Detroit’s rate of 1,200 violent crimes per 100,000 people is the highest in the country. Murder and non-negligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery and aggravated assault were considered violent crimes. What’s interesting is that it’s not the pressures of an increasing population but a decrease in population that has seen Detroit rank consistently as one of America’s most dangerous cities. Closedown of of manufacturing units since the sixties has seen the population come down from 1.8 million in 1950 to half that number today.

jynxxxedangel Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) I tend to agree with Rev. Detroit has been "soul sick" for a lot longer than this recession. Anyone who is sensitive to "vibes" would know what we are referring to. It's quite mentally/physically painful/draining for me to visit; therefore, I don't visit often. Bad juju, man.
