All white Detroit Police force just trying to stop drunks from causing their little riot before it got out of control. When the riots flare up, Black folks in Detroit's West Side put these rumors white police officers messing with our people. White Detroiters said that blacks are tearing up their own neighborhoods and soon it would spread to ours. Let's move out here.

So far we don't know that drunk or drunks color of their skin who started the riot. But we do know that it left some wounds all over Detroit for ages to come.
Danny, thanks for the classic post. Now, just to clear things up, what exactly do you find "historically incorrect?"
