Ex-Police Chief Knox Attacked
http://www.freep.com/article/2012050...yssey=obinsite
So we have another high-profile robbery, this one with two guys who were armed.
If retired police officers have trouble, the rest of us don't stand a chance.
Many years ago, I met him when he was a Precinct Commander...did some hifi work at his house. He was a gentleman to the extreme, and I am glad he wasn't hurt worse in this brazen robbery.
Sincerely,
John
In Detroit people are desperate

If anything, I would think that the perps would want to force the person they are robbing back into their homes where they can steal items and cash from the house. In this case, the perps just attacked former police chief Knox while he was using his lawn mower. Dumb criminals.
Black youth are desperate. They have nothing, absolutely nothing. It's easy to say get a job, go to school, but in this society you need money. They get tired of relying on the women in their family for support and they have no direction from the black males in the community, who themselves are struggling.
Until we can fix the socio-economic problems of [[black) youth, we will continue to be terrorized by them. If I had my druthers, they would be banned from watching/listening hip-hop artists except for the ones with a positive message. They would be banned from pornography. They would be imprisoned in their homes to read books.
