You are doing really well here if you walk through downtown without being shot.

Still safer than taking the "People Mover."

IMHO, the NFL made a horrible decision to have the Super Bowl in Detroit. Regardless of who wins, there will be rioting and looting in the streets. That's just the way it is in Detroit.

Sometimes I wonder if the empty seats at the stadium during a Lions game isn't because of lack of fan base, but fans feel safer watching on the big screen TV at home.

I'd be curious what the cost of security is in Detroit vs the super bowl in Atlanta right after 9/11?

Downtown's not that bad. Now go up Gratiot or down Fenkell, and it's another story.

A crock. Overall downtown is safer now than it was 10-15 years ago.

Nonsense. Detroit's a bustling place, as seen from these recent photos.

That's why they call it HOSPITALity

Have you ever been downtown Detroit? The areas of sports, theaters, and Greektown are quite safe and fun.
