Fury13... I don't disagree with your comments about the Mafia... the migration of Italian-Americans has mainly gone from the east side of Detroit into Macomb County... just like the Germans and Belgians.
But anywhere a Mafia related trial happens... one can understand corruption rearing its' ugly head. Macomb County has no monopoly on that.
As for my comment about 8 Mile... the thing is that any stranger crossing that boundary has no clue that he/she has left Detroit... that was my point... it's not a red herring [[I do know my 43 logic fallacies).
My architecture comment was geared towards Mackinaw... whom I hold in high regard... but disagree with on this one point... where you live has no impact on how you feel about architecture or on how it affects your daily life... zippo. I'm sure that the people who live in the suburbs of Rome have just as much appreciation for the arts as those who live within the Eternal City... ditto for Detroit [[although "we ain't Rome!").
