Didn't Detroit refuse to offer assistance to the Justice Department with regard to tracking down suspicious persons?

My memory is that when the FBI/DOJ wanted to speak with ~5,000 Arab men several months ago, there was little if any local Detroit support for the effort. I remember a local Detroit police spokesman saying his department had built-up a "relationship" with the local Arab population and he thought the FBI interview request would hurt that "relationship".

It was pathetic!
