I’m from Detroit but go to college in Ohio and every time I visit home it seems to get a bit worse, more abandoned houses, etc. I love Detroit because it made me who I am but we’ve got a long way to go. I really wish the media would show some of the good about the city though.

The media will never show positive images, or tell good stories. Positive doesn’t sell.  It is always a shame to see your childhood memories become defunct with time and with economic conditions. Thanks for the response.. I hope everything will work out..

I am from Detroit, and I dont get why the media is so hard on us, even the pictures you posted make us look like Bosnia in 1994. We are a proud people, with history, but extremely bad leadership. The only reason we are bankrupcy is because of those in charge. Sadly it’s like a mafia run city. Except the mafia would do much better.I bet you will be afraid to print this

Interesting point on the MOB. Well taken. I am brave enough to publish

Lifestyles of the sequestered.. For some reason, I always would like to think that a jury goes behind doors to deliberate in a hot, sweaty room without an air conditioner working, like in 12 ANGRY MEN. In the case of the George Zimmerman trial, there were no men, and not even 12 people, instead six … Read moreThe jurors going OUTBACK tonight
