/she's got nothing on Monica Conyers

Bring on the muhfuggin crazy, yo.

I heard the audio on NPR. That girl is crazy and her son is super corrupt.

208 reviews, yet nearly all of them have a single-star rating. Hmm.

I'm telling you, let the Detroit Red Wings (also known as the retirement home for the former Soviet Hockey team) run the city.

/"So it seems you are embezzlink funds. Stand still so I hit you with stick."

ceremony_1968: Bring on the muhfuggin crazy, yo.

Heh. I've only heard that as a drop on local sports talk radio. I didn't know where it came from.

Does she actually say at one point "Too many people have died for us"? What the fark is she talking about? The stripper Kwame and the DPD put a hit on?

Nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

/"So it seems you are embezzlink funds. Stand still so I hit you with stick."

Are you kidding me? These ex Soviets probably look at the level of corruption in Detroit and think, "Amateurs."

sigdiamond2000: Hell yeah.

Ha ha

Detroit is becoming more and more like the one depicted in Robocop. I think OCP and some ED-209 droids would actually do some good.

/Would buy that for a dollar.

sigdiamond2000: Hell yeah.

Ok, this guy is officially tied with Marvin Zindler for Best. Newscaster. Ever.

Huey Long, Detroit style.

For those who haven't yet seen it:

YAW'S BOY!! (new window)

(This is the Carolyn "Cheeks" Kilpatrick going batshiat crazy tape)

I'll translate the ghetto crazy biatch.

"He didn't get elected because he had connections, which he did. He got elected because of us, the people. We're black. We have to stick together. White people have killed too many black people, and now they're trying to remove one of our own from office. Pay no attention to the fact that the city council is asking Granholm to remove him, and Granholm is refusing."

You may replace "white" with "republican" or some other boogeyman irrelevant to this subject in any way, shape, or form. She didn't specify which shadow puppet they were supposed to be afraid of and fight against.

sigdiamond2000: Hell yeah.

Huel yeah?

Thank you, Mayor Kilpatrick, for setting your people back 200 years.

dammit detroit!

how embarrassing.

the place does have some positives...

if you want to have a great meal, catch a game or a band, do some gambling and sleep in a kickass hotel, detroit can be a lot of fun.

just don't get lost, and for god's sake, don't live there.

drzoidberg74: Thank you, Mayor Kilpatrick, for setting your people back 200 years.

Nah, I don't think that politicians have been set back 200 years, because if they were we'd see Jeffersons and Washingtons again.

Touché.

Still, it can't be much worse than what's already there.

Meh, Kwame is no Frank Melton.

Can't we force Detroit to go over to Canada or something?

MCStymie: I'm telling you, let the Detroit Red Wings (also known as the retirement home for the former Soviet Hockey team) run the city.



Retirement home? They have one russian player on their roster... And he's 30.

Do try and keep up.

/Russian 5 FTW

NYZooMan: Can't we force Detroit to go over to Canada or something?

Never happen... Ontario wouldn't know what to do with a hockey team that wins.

Sorry detroit farkers, but yall have one screwed up city.


/and for christ's sake i live in New Orleans

The headline nor the article mentions their political party, they must be republicans.

The Stealth Hippopotamus: The headline nor the article mentions their political party, they must be republicans.

Does your hometown paper ever preface your mayor's name with his party affiliation? Mine doesn't.

Corrupt Democrats ruining Detroit?


I'm shocked...SHOCKED, I SAY!!

sigdiamond2000: The Stealth Hippopotamus: The headline nor the article mentions their political party, they must be republicans.

No, but our mayor in Toronto is often referred to as the 'NDP Leaning' mayor.

ceremony_1968: Bring on the muhfuggin crazy, yo.

Thank you, I didn't read any "batshiat crazy" in TFA. That video sheds a little light on the headline.

degreeless: Detroit is becoming more and more like the one depicted in Robocop. I think OCP and some ED-209 droids would actually do some good.

Wasn't the mayor in Robocop, the first one, good and trying to stop the corruption?

ceremony_1968: Bring on the muhfuggin crazy, yo.

I don;t have youtube at work. did he really say that?

liam76: I don;t have youtube at work. did he really say that?

No. In that YouTube video its his mom and state representative Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick saying, "He didn't just get up in here by just coming. Y'all sent him up in here. Don't let nobody talk about y'all's boy. Too many people died for us. We're here to FIGHT! Thats what I'm talking about."

sigdiamond2000: Does your hometown paper ever preface your mayor's name with his party affiliation? Mine doesn't.

True most time the local does not have that.

And your answer about the headline?!?

degreeless: Detroit is becoming more and more like the one depicted in Robocop. I think OCP and some ED-209 droids would actually do some good.

/Would buy that for a dollar.

Give it time, someone has to reconstruct Detroit into a functioning city again. Or just put more money in Metro Detroit so the city core can just become a ghetto suburb of itself.

The Stealth Hippopotamus: And your answer about the headline?!?

Well, submitter is obviously an Islamocommunohomofrancofascist.

It's like a storm of ghetto cliches just being thrown at you.

'Groes gotsa ack up...

Shrugging Atlas: Nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Detroit is a city that could probably benefit from a nuclear strike. It'd make cleaning up the abandoned parts much easier, aside from the radiation hazards.

Not any more... but I hear Tretyak is going to come in as a back up for Osgood.

She sounds all around ghetto.

vonster:
She sounds all around ghetto.

And what the hell is up with her hair? She looks like Queen of the Junk Pile there. I almost half expect her to start jumping up and down like a troll while doing strange hand gestures. She could be a freaking stunt double for Warwick Davis.

In Robocop, weren't all the criminals white?

I always laugh when the movies depict inner city / ghetto gangs as mostly white.

sigdiamond2000: Well, submitter is obviously an Islamocommunohomofrancofascist.

I'm just glad I'm not the only one that understands that.

no not all the criminals in robocop were white don't let the facts get in the way of ur bigoted beliefs.

/mayor should resign and mom will lose her seat in congress.

//thank god only black politicians act like this. i bet a white one would never stoop this low to keep his office lol

Watched the Red Bull air race yesterday and you could barely see the dead hookers floating in the water. That said, Kwame is singlehandedly devaluing my inheritance from my parents house.

Thanks douchebag

/city was already jacked up but I though Archer made some headway
//doing 94 on 94 FTW, NC State Troopers frown on my shenanigans

nice job Detroit! say, hows your city looking these days? all cleaned up? good employment? low crime? good schools? low poverty? Keep up the good work!

I can't believe this guy is still in office, only in Detroit. Any other place the guy would be in jail (laid his hands on an officer last week too). Incredible.
