Wow! No Murders Or Shooting In Detroit For 41 Hours

[iheartthed]

Are you speaking about Detroit's absolute's numbers, or per-capita rate?

Detroit's per-capita rate never really fell.

That's not true. There was a steep drop off in the 1990s that corresponded to the nationwide drop in crime during that period of time. Since there was relatively little population loss in Detroit during the 1990s, it was a real drop in the crime rate.

That's the key word "REPORTED". No way did Detroit go without a shooting in 41 hours.

And that coincided with a steep drop in residents.

No, you didn't read my entire statement. There was not a steep drop in residents in the 1990s. It was Detroit's most stable decade since the 1940s.

Exactly, I hear gunshots & return fire every single night, this is just another media lie.

Peace treaty is over folks. There's been a shooting in Detroit's Northwest Side. Right in my old hood.

HAPPY SHOOTING GAMES!
