Don't forget this was the man who cracked the Tonya Harding case wide open. I know it was a million years ago but he did it.

Shawn Eckardt was no Ken Weiner.....
A broken clock may be right twice a day. That doesn't mean it ain't broke.
How many real crimes were being neglected while Lil' Benny was playing up to the tabloids?
This would be a first for Detroit; to have a Mayor with experience of clacking knee-clubber clases. May come in very useful useful if Detroit has a knee-clubber clase to clack.
He ran the Detroit Police Dept to the ground. Putting him as Mayor of Detroit will put the city right to the ground.
If Detroit don't write in Duggan, Detroiters will have to pick their poisons and eat it.
He was the best police chief Detroit had in 30 years. The crime escalated after Kwame closed down precients and Bing laying off more cops
I realize that what I posted was kinda a silly play on words but I had just been reading this http://www.mediabistro.com/tvspy/epi...i-tu-lo_b97368 and it had put my thinking in a silly phase. I should have gone back to bed.
I didn't realize that. What are his accomplishments, I mean besides 5 drivers, running over budget, and missing important meetings due to lawn watering? Better question yet, how does any of that qualify him for being mayor? I don't know because he can't seem to make it to any of the debates either.
Benny said he reduced in Detroit violent crime 30% under his watch. Now we all know crime is cyclical. Did he do something that directly related to the decrease or was it just a matter of busting up a couple of drug gangs, or are the numbers fuzzy ? I will give him credit for the "One Square Mile" plan he is touting. That is the first concrete plan I have heard from anybody this election. Problem is I don't know if it is even workable. http://www.deadlinedetroit.com/artic...c#.UeFjrGLD_mI
"Putting" an officer in every "one square mile" is one thing. Whether or not it actually has any effect on preventing crime, catching criminals, and/or making neighborhoods safe is another. He's a cop, maybe even a decent one. The mayor job has to do with way more than "putting a cop on every corner". Besides, he had his shot @ reducing crime and making Detroit a better place. How did he do?
He's saying 30% that's why I'm asking the question ?
Benny Napolean simply lucked up. He benefitted from that very brief time in Detroit's history where the Clinton economic boom was well in progress and before the lifting of the residency requirement/real estate boom that destroyed many of the neighborhoods kicked into gear. Everyone thought Detroit's decline may have just stopped at that time and the city was coming back, but then the 2000s came along.
I say let him stay where he's at. Crime, while a major problem, is not the only thing that needs fixing and I do not believe he is the one to handle all of the problems the city is facing. Meanwhile, how are things in Inkster? Has he
given his brother any advice?
Napoleon. Another one of Archer's mediocre moves.
Which one of Benny's Jets are you?
Benny, Benny, Benny and the Jets .....
Hey kids, plug into the faithless
Maybe they're blinded
But Bennie makes them ageless
We shall survive, let us take ourselves along
Where we fight our parents out in the streets
To find who's right and who's wrong
The guy's gotta good hollywood name to him.
