I am so enraged at the state of things in my city. Crime running rampant through our streets, citizens being terrorized. What are the people we elected to change things doing? NOTHING!!! 27 shooting in 1 weekend and their answer is to make cuts in the police/fire/rescue services. I am no rocket scientist, but to me that seems stupid. The Mayor is collecting a check, 9 city council members are collecting checks, but with the new consent agreement with the state they really have no say. So why are we paying them, paying for their cars, gas and police protection?? THE POLICE DON'T PROTECT THE PEOPLE !!! so why should be pay to have these people protected !!!
These are our headlines...
Sad to think we have to live like this.. But it gets worse....
Our EMS workers cannot even help us because the ambulances don't hardly work. And have to be afriad when they break down they will become victims as well.
So what does our elected officials have to say?? In order to get the budget in order we must make so sacrifices. WE MUST?? I don't see a police officer outside my house protecting my family. I don't remember the city buying my gas? And I drive a 1994 POS not a city leased car. So when you say WE, say you the citizens. Shame on all those in charge here in Detroit.
I know alot of reporters out there do stories on the city, but for me a special thanks goes out to Fox2's Charlie LeDuff. Charlie tells it like it is and doesn't hold back. That is what we like, up front in your face truth !!!!
