Well, one guy is killed immediately. The other guy cooperates completely and is shot in the neck anyway.

Fuck, it was at Buscemis on Gratiot. Wonder what direction the perps went down Gratiot. Probably south but that's my opinion.

"Fuck, it was at Buscemis on Gratiot. Wonder what direction the perps went down Gratiot. Probably south but that's my opinion."

Well I can agree on that because of 8 Mile rd. People always head to the quickest route out of the area. However, if you're insisting that they're coming from Detroit and just headed back, then I disagree. Many people on the site always assume that most crimes are committed by Detroiters.

By the way, I hope you didn't eat none of BuSCAMis' Pizza.

The first link is failing for me. The video is available on the right of this page: http://www.wxyz.com/news/local /story.aspx?content_id=4fdb23f d-da2a-42ec-ac9c-7b02ebeef7c2.

What do you do in a situation like this? You move to the country and hope to hell that bastards like that don't come to your town.

All good people of the Detroit area, run for your lives. The animals have taken over and there is no place for you.

Why must it be sarcasm? I think she made a fairly legitimate point.

Tough to say if it's sarcastic or not. I really mean that good people should be able to live free of fear, but I know that's impossible.

No, I've thought about it and I was serious.

These guys are toast. It's just a matter of time before the police pick them up.

Then we get to pay for their meals and lodging for another 30-40 years. Great.

Here's hoping they don't give up easily and the police put a couple of bullets in their head.

I don't live in a fuckin' downtown loft, or anything tres chic like that. I live in the Real Detroit, and it's good & fucked up. The animals HAVE taken over. Crime problem? Horrible. Drug problem? Horrible. Absent Father problem? Horrible. Unemployment problem? Horrible. Mayor who is an asshole? Horrible.
Don't get me started.

Ravine lives in Detroit. Ravine has spoken truth.

"You want the truth? You can't handle the truth."

Detroitrise and all the other blinder-wearing fools: You have lost control of YOUR city. The criminals now outnumber you and you are sunk.

Do you really want to keep making excuses for bastard animals who are ruining your quality of life? I guess you have to because you are scared sh..less and powerless to do anything about it.

I know all that, I just don't think the most effective solution is for the entire "good" population of the metro area to move to the country. Somehow I think that will make the problem quite a bit worse.

Bear, that would be sweet! Wasn't there a movie about an entire city of criminals?
Who cares if the problem is worse, only criminals would live there. Big deal.

Not being sarcastic, but honest (sorry if this offends) - but if this keeps up I envision some race based gunplay developing.

Are shop workers allowed to have firearms behind the counter in Eastpointe?

I for one am not offended. If anything, these people know that's the next step. You can never have a conversation about anything concerning Metro Detroit without mentioning race.

Might that be because blacks continually play the race card? A self-fulfilling prophesy.

Or the whites always trying to shove the race card under the rug (like a rat) and expecting it to stay there? A self-fulfilling prophesy.

And it begins...

ALL people can be nasty, horrible, without conscience.

Again, can business owners/workers in Eastpointe legally have firearms behind the counters?

"Or that Detroit is 83% or so black?"

Or that the Metro Area as a whole is Majority White.
