Why waste time with stupid stuff like learning and planning a future when you can just strut around town in your $300 tennis shoes and your pants hanging off your knees, listening to the latest rap song ‘bout slappin’ dem bitches and ho’s around. I mean, dat’s where it is, right?

I didn’t know they called video stores, “libraries”.
Good thing no Detroit native can read what I wrote.

"Sure they can - it just isn’t English." First, you're thinking of Dearborn. I believe the Dearborn Public Schools are more than 74% ethnic Arab. Second, don't kid yourself about the Arab population surrounding Detroit being stupid - they aren't, at all. The three public high schools in the Dearborn area perform WAY above the national public school averages - WAY above. And, all of their dropout rates are very, very low - again, significantly below national averages, and WAY below the MI average.
The Detroit Public School system, OTOH, is a disaster. I read several years ago that its graduation rate was below 30% - think about that - only 3 in 10 students graduate from high school, if that.

Don’t worry, Barack Obama promises that if they just get free high-speed internet, all of that will change, or something.

When I think of Detroit... I think of a black populace... but you are correct... mexicans are pushing out the blacks and are taking over.

47 percent of Detroiters are functionally illiterate.
Actually, I'm surprised it's that low. I would have guessed somewhere around 70%.
