For the love of everything good and holy, at least in this thread, please ignore the trolls. lol
BTW, we can stop sh%tting on the local media, this time. Nolan Finley was the only columnist or mainstream media figure to come to this guy's aid. This is a turning point. For the first time, everyone seems to be in agreement that Patterson's inflammatory rhetoric serves no positive purpose for either the city or his own Oakland County.
The doddering old racist will cling on lik he always does. What's so stupid about this is that he's setting up a power switch in his county when he's gone that he thought he spent his entire career trying to prevent. In the past, these kind of comments would have rallied support around him. Poor thing, he doesn't notice how much the political, cultural, and social landscape has changed around him. He's setting up his local Republicans for such a hellish political push-back and swing, that it'll let in the people who he has been trying to keep outside the walls of the fortress for years. lol
I'm having a hard time being mad, anymore. I'm happy he revealed himself to a national audience what the rest of us knew all along. Without the self-awareness to even realize what's he's doing to his county's political power structure, he's actually facilitating and expediating his exit.
