Hopefully, the people who will benefit by the improvements in their parks will protect it from the inevitable vandals who will descend upon it.
You know, I'm not going to say whether I agree or disagree with your point here, but couldn't you just let people be happy that someone is bringing something to the city for just a LITTLE while before you jump in with the cheerful viewpoint?Quote:

I have never heard of the large auto plants in the city experiencing problems with vandals. Vandalizing Jefferson North or Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly or American Axle seems daunting, and largely pointless. Maybe you could share a link as an example? Oh, yeah, I didn't think so.

This is fantastic news from Lear.
Yes! Agreed!Quote:
