As opposed to the actual genocide in progress. Keep Detroit out of your fucking mouth you inbred. The people from both communities are fine, respectful and for the most part supportive of each other here. From Levin to Tlaib, we value our diversity and the large immigrant communities that have been a staple of the Tri-county Metro area. You're trash.
Coming to you straight from the Will Smith school of diplomacy. Are you going to walk up and slap him next and get banned from Lemmy?
Yikes, don't quit your day job.
Imagine living and enjoying your city and the people in it quite a lot. Then try to imagine that every piece of national news you'll ever see about it is because of cars or the selling of murder narratives. It gets old and doubly so when someone is trying to paint a portrait of a place and community they've never stepped foot in. I love this place and my Muslim and Jewish neighbors that live in it. If you don't feel the same way for your community and your neighbors then I feel sad for you.
I thought it was it was pretty damned funny.
Also Detroit has a murder rate per 100k higher than Mexico. Let's break it down Seattle: 7 Mexico: 25: Coatzacoalcos(really dangerous city in Mexico): 48 Detroit: 50. This is to say 1 person out of every 2000 presently living there will be murdered this year. Annualize that rate over 50 years of rolling the dice and its closer to 1 in 50.
Median Home Price in Detroit: $80k Median Home price in US $416k
Median Income Mexico: $14k PPP, Median Household income Detroit: $36k Median Household Income US: $75k
Detroit is like a little poor country somehow stranded in the middle of the US where poverty instead of walls keep you in.
Did you think I didn't understand your joke and that's why I thought it wasn't funny? It's just not a funny or original joke. We get that you thought it was funny, hence the gracious advice to not attempt a career in comedy.
What's your endgame here where you turn into the statistician nobody wanted or asked for? You were unlikable before this and now its just crossing into lonely sad man territory. You pissing into the wind while you desperate wikifacts and USA Today articles isn't improving anyone's stock in your opinion. I'm glad you don't like the city so many of us happily call home. Nobody asked you and nobody cares.
