Well, that's a small something, anyway. Thank goodness for them. Still, I'm most angry at negligent owners. They should be compelled to "mothball" a dormant building for future use, with fines/per day for non-compliance. The penalties should be stiff and steep for scrappers and b&e artists. Hours and hours of picking up trash all over Detroit sounds like a fine idea. Not much energy left after that to go and try to take what's not yours.
