DETROIT (WWJ) – The mayor of Boston is drawing criticism for recent comments he made about Detroit.
In an interview with the New York Times, Mayor Thomas Menino was asked if he could live in any other city in America other than Boston, where would he choose.
He at first said he’d never thought of living in any other city, but then added: “Detroit is a place I’d love to go.”
When the reporter asked Menino what he’d do in Detroit, the mayor responded: ”I’d blow up the place and start all over.”

Wonder what he really meant.
The Mayor’s (and Kerry’s) support of the Terrorist Mosque
in Boston, led to THE BOSTON Atrocity and murders.

Well as soon as he’s done blowing up Boston, I suppose he can go on over there and blow up Detroit as an encore.

Not a completely irrational thought. We do this with buildings and nobody bats an eye. Is it such a stretch to do it for a city?

Boston mayors have been crooks since James Curley : ) This one isn't a crook in the strictest sense of the word.Yes,he's a Rat.Yes,he fills the city payroll with Rat hacks.Yes,he takes the Marxist position on every issue.But the most noteworthy trait of *this* mayor is the fact that he has the IQ of a bag of rocks.He's genuinely illiterate.

Of course Menino would want a piece of the action of the demolition and trash hauling contract before he does it.

Hey Menino ... wood'ja' blow Boston up ... with all the history and rich architecture ... if it was as f***** up as DEEtroit ?"
Why'n't'cha gatherin' all your old money rich hob nobs an go SAVE the city ?
Fence in about 5 square miles, put armed guards around the place ... NOT neighborhood watch guys ... but guys that WILL cap yo azz for messin' wit' my fence ...
I believe ONE RICH MAN, could get a hold of an old hotel and restore it to it's original, gaudy grandeur and by God, people would come just to feel important again.

No, he has to blow up the residents of Dee-troit, not the city.
