Kwame Steps down...

Also if your friends are too big of pussies to go through an American city, they shouldn't be defending our country.

That made sense.

It's also worth noting the city has hosted the Super Bowl, MLB All-Star, Stanley Cup Finals, World Series, Auto Show, Thanksgiving Day parades, Championship Parades etc. without any incident of crime, wheras cities like Boston, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Denver etc. have had problems with riots and even killings after events. Now if Detroit was such a bad place where soldiers have to replace rims on their cars, then why did the thousands of people at these events not run into any crime problems?

They should just nuke detroit. No loss.

Serioulsy, if detroit were removed there would be no loss. Crime rate is super high there. I know ex-soliders who served in both iraq wars whom are actually physically scared to roll thru the streets there. My neighbor is one of them... he has some shitty 20's on his truck and he actually removes them and puts stock wheels on his ride just to visit his mom who lives there.

You Fail

Your friends are total dumbasses. 65-70% of homicides in the city are related to narcotic trafficking. Of the 25 largest cities it ranks near the bottom in gang related crime, downtown is one of the safest areas with crime rates less then state and national averages. It is the largest city on the Canadian border which means a lot of drug and human trafficking go through Detroit to get in and out of the US. It is not a bunch of thugs roaming the streets looking to cause trouble. Also it's worth noting crime rates are down in the city since the 80's, and of the same 25 cities, Detroit was actually 6th in total crime.
Kwame was forced out. He didn't step down.

Lets look at the 2006 crime statistics for detroit in comparison to a little other small town called New York, shall we?

Latest 2006 Crimes per 100,000 People:

Detroit, MI - New York, NY

Murder: 47.3 - 7.3

Forcible ****: 67.05 - 13.12

Robbery: 818.6 - 287.9

Aggravated Assault: 1486 - 329.6

Burglary: 2050.3 - 271.1

Larceny Theft: 2406.8 - 1412.9

Vehicle Theft: 2591.1 - 195.2

Actual Reported Population and Crimes:

Detroit, MI - New York, NY

Population: 884,462 - 8,165,001

Murder: 418 - 596

Forcible ****: 593 - 1071

Robbery: 7240 - 23511

Aggravated Assault: 13143 - 26908

Burglary: 18134 - 22137

Larceny Theft: 21287 - 115363

Vehicle Theft: 22917 - 15936

So basically on average the crime rate is 4-5x more based on population alone? You're right....I wanna move there //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I never compared Detroit to New York //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif I know New York is one of the safest cities. The fact is, you didn't analyze the crime rates and your post about Detroit being worse then fighting in Iraq is pure and utter bullshit. I already analyzed the crime rates for you. I don't even understand where you are going with this. First you bring up Winnipeg, then New York, then somewhere in between it was suggested you should move to Detroit? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif I'm just saying your alleged military friends should grow a nut sack.

This is just for extra emphasis

How about you compare Detroit's crime rate to Baltimore, New Orleans, St. Louis. Also Detroit's theft is below the national average and yet our pussy troops have to change rims //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

your post about Detroit being worse then fighting in Iraq is pure and utter bullshit.

woah there homie, you cant make up things ive said or not said. I never said that Iraq was anything like Detroit. However, your association of the two suggests a freudian assocation on your part.

Review my post again ..... for extra emphasis //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Anyway you cut it, they are pussies. What's funny is, Radcliff Kentucky has a higher theft rate then Detroit but he removes his rims when going through Detroit like they are going to gun down his car on the freeway and steal his rims //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif If it isn't implied that Detroit is suppose to be worse then Iraq, what was the point of mentioning that the people served in Iraq?

 

[Lugnutzk 10+ year member]

And LOL at you suggesting a Freudian Slip //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
