detroit isn't mogadishu 2: black hawk downer like most people seem to believe, and its really just the natural end result of the american attitude to the city; suburbs killing the city and replacing nothing of what urban life brings. hopefully oil depletion and global warming burn that out of us

Ribsauce posted:Does Detroit allow concealed carry? I am not a paranoid gun owner but if I lived there I would get strapped up like Arnold in Commando to go to the mailbox. michigan is an open carry state and there are no city-specific gun laws
