It's going down simply because they are running out of victims.

Let's see, that equates to just about 700 victims annually. Nice place.

It's not the first time. Detroit should be used to it. Sure makes me glad I got the f**k out when I had the chance. I'm in Branson, MO. There was a murder here last week. It was the FIRST of the year and everyone is in a panic. I have to laugh at them. They have no idea here what real crime is.
Then the other day a friend in one of the suburbs was trying to tell me how wonderful it is in Detroit now and how it's changed since I moved away 5 yrs ago. Poor man......falls for all the "fix up downtown to lure the suburbanites and tourists" crap. All the money is used to fix up downtown at the expense of the neighborhoods. I was born and raised in Detroit and lived there for the better part of 54 years. It never came back after the riot and I doubt it ever will. It's sad, because at one time both whites and blacks lived side by side and got along. Seems like a dream now.

It's a shame. So many deaths. What will we do if all the lowlifes kill each other? What if we run out? Maybe the goverment should start a scum breeding program.

Detroit already has a scum breeding program.

Yep, and it's headquartered in the Manoogian Mansion, with branch offices in Police Headquarters, and the Prosecuting Attorney's office.

where there is poverty there will be crime,people will kill over just about anything.by no means does this excuse one who kills,but offer a little understanding to what the f&*k is really going on.
