Shithouse Dave posted:Does Michigan have stand your ground laws? Every time I've thought about them I've though what a poo poo idea, but Detroit might be one place I'd agree with them, if the police aren't even going to show up to stuff. Trust me Michigan's state government has done it's absolute and total best to destroy the city of Detroit, which is funny because Detroit is going to drag the entire state with it to hell.

I love how you look at Detroit and it's a post industrial hellscape of urban decay, but you go a few miles across the river to Canada, and everything is clean and nice. Kind of shows you everything that's wrong with America vs other developed first world countries. These places are within like 5 miles of each other: Canada:  Detroit:

futurists love Detroit because it's a preview what the rest of the country will look like in 50 years. people who hate on the rust belt have probably never lived in it; if you have, then the hate is so obvious you don't need to point it out and you can instead focus on the positive things like the burgeoning apocalyptic art movement. why the gently caress would you pay $15 to see the new Road Warrior in the theater when you can just open your blinds?

Alexzandvar posted:It's funny because people love to blame Detroit for it's problems when the state government has been trying to flush the city down the toilet for 25 years. Why are they doing it? Hint: it has to do with the majority race of people who live in the city. The city government elected by that same majority is doing a great job of that without any help from racist boogeymen. I don't understand why people go all racist conspiracy about Detroit when its clear they are just reaping what's been sown by the populace for years.

Why are so many of the houses falling in on themselves? Buildings don't auto-implode after four years of no use...is there a gang of kids with sledgehammers just taking poo poo out for fun? Now that I think about it I would probably be doing exactly that if I was a kid in that kind of environment.

There's a pretty good VICE piece about how tons of people in Detroit make a living just salvaging poo poo and selling it to scrap yards. They're called 'scrappers.' One guy said he just steals poo poo from one scrap yard and sells it to another to make the big bucks, but then there's more of a risk of getting shot. And then the Chinese are just buying all the scrap from us to fuel their own industries because it's cheaper than mining new ore.

Scavengers gut them for anything of value: copper piping, wiring, appliances, fixtures, etc. And they often tear the places apart to get at that stuff. Sometimes they torch the places when finished.

Dunk town USA! Yeah its about 40 seconds in and there is a KFC ad that plays in the beginning so no one is gonna watch this. But honestly a good way to rebuild the economy of Detroit is to put adjustable basketball hoops with balls at every intersection in Detroit.

Seriously not only are you getting to smash up someone's walls, doors, etc... you get to rip out the copper and sell it for a lot of bucks. Whose gonna stop you? The cops? LOL they don't care / won't even bother coming out to that area cause they aren't being paid.

lol the detroit police will respond to a shooting or a stabbing MAYBE, depending on the neighborhood. actually saw a guy a few weeks ago who went to report his car stolen(older white male) and the cops straight up told him we dont give a gently caress, maybe YOU can find it tho? but yeah dont break into a house in detroit you will die, everybody has a gun here.
