Scroll down and read the comments from this freep.com story http://tinyurl.com/y4sutgj covering yesterday's Dateline NBC show. It is the latest example of the hate and contempt within the freep.com web forum. I live in Chicago and I have been here since 1998. I read DetroitYES because I can get informative replies to the news of the day without the vitriol shown on freep.com. Then I read freep.com until the topic dissolves into a bunch of rants and finger pointing.

Those comments are the 500-pound gorilla in the room that Chris Hansen failed to mention last night. There are people in the city who wouldn't accept suburban help if they were on their last breath. There are suburbanites who wouldn't piss on the city if it were on fire [[bad analogy, I know ).

What do you think it will take to change the minds and hearts of Metro Detroit residents?
