Video of the state of affairs in Detroit.
Everything is going down the drain in Detroit, including UM sports! Football, basketball, and hockey are just atrocious!
That place looks no better than Chernobyl, UA, after the Nuclear accident, I had no idea America was this bad, incredible.
There are areas just as bad in England. Detroit is not representative of all America. It’s over 700 miles away from me.
East St. Louis looks like that, as well as parts of N. St. Louis.
Portions of Richmond Va. are the same. My buddies from Boston and Philly tell me similiar stories.
On New Years Eve, the city also has the distinction of sounding like a warzone when the populous decides to test fire, or “celebrate,” with every means of defense available to them...that familiar sound is not rainfall, or any amount of fireworks.
This is what never makes it into the newsroom. I say to people that think the country is safe in their backyard neighborhood: “brother, you don't know what's happening to your neighbors at all.”
Guess whats happening to all of America, Detroit was the leader of industry, it is also likely the leader of our economic change.
I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
Or put in simple laymen's terms: This is what happens when we have more people riding the wagon than pulling it.
Let's hope that the rest of the nation can wake up because unless things change, this is coming to a city near you.
I love the scene when the polar bear crashes unto the car.
Democrat control of Detroit since 1961, yet they still wont ‘change” their mentality and politics.
Yep. It’s Detroit. I’ve long thought we should declare war on Canada and make terms of peace that they take Detroit.
Detroit has been a known ****hole for 30+ years.
See this clip from Kentucky Fried Movie, from 1977, which highlights this.

No! Not Detroit!
Some of those areas could have been in the Fallout 3 game and wouldn’t be able to tell the difference
I’ve never watched that movie. Guess I’ll have to give it a try. :-)
Detroit = America Zimbabwe
This needs to be broadcast on national tv. Maybe send it to Hannity, Beck, or Wallace.
