it depends on what part of detroit i'm in, but there are definately areas i don't feel safe. when i go south of 8 mile i just make sure i have a full tank of gas and don't point at anybody

I would assume that 75% of the crimes in STL are washington park and East Stl..... i would also bet that 90-95% of the crimes are by black people

I can't see how New Orleans isn't up there. Even before Katrina.

well since you brought it up. 86% of detroit's population is black. now back in the 50's detroit was mostly white, then the blacks moved up from the south, whites paniced moved to the suburbs. since then detroit has deteriorated. before when it was all white, they had very nice neighborhoods, now you cannot go down a single block on the east side without a house missing. now troy and sterling heights were on the safest list, where all the whites moved too. not accusing anything, just showing the facts

yep, its not said but look at how blacks live in those areas... many can EASILY get out of the ghetto and make it better.... but they would rather sit on their lazy ***** and collect welfare and push drugs.... its a sad sad world..... the shit is there and most use it for all the wrong reasons......the movie Friday is exactly what driving through east stl is like.. its pathetic

well the economy in detroit is bad. the auto industry is totally shutting down. they had a think on cnn about poverty in detroit, and they talked to this black woman. she *****ed about how poor she is. well she had 7 ****ing kids, and i didn't see a father. i have no sympathy for that woman, just the poor kids. honestly sew your god **** knees together if you have to. 1 is an accident, 7 is a slut
