I live within an hour of both Detroit and Flint Michigan (No. 1 and 3 on the hit list) The last time I was in Flint by choice was 1976, My average for visiting Detroit is once every five years. When people from other parts of the country ask me where I live I tell them Milford Michigan, a far east suburb of Chicago. (I visit there twice a year)

GURUknows, that''s cute, nice video.

It''s a shame those "Negroes" you white folks keep referencing don''t have access to the Internet, or read upon current events e.g. CBS News, BBC, etc.

Because if they read all the derogatory comments made about them, those in Detroit, New Orleans, Compton, etc. maybe, just maybe they would decide to turn their lives around, even if it''s out of spite.

I wish more of you could express your disdain for blacks more openly and frequently, maybe this could "shock the collective consciousness" of many, motiving them into taking leadership or stewardship of their lives, and stop wanting and depending upon white America to "parent" them.

Maybe in this case the best defense is the defense, certainly a lot of black folks are plagued with high unemployment or joblessness, and like it or not, we will always have the poor to contend with, but there are many young able bodied black men and women that can do much better, which only exacerbates the problem.

So, if it''s any consolation, white folks, speak out, make your feelings widely known, and just maybe you can touch the consciousness of some non-responsive combative black male/female to "shock the conscious" into elevating their lives.

Where''s New Orleans on this list?
I''ve been hearing since Katrina that the murder rate there exploded above even how bad it was before the hurricane hit.

In Washington DC there are a large number of armed criminals even though all handguns are illegal.

the only way this liberal controlled city can reduce this is to make ''murder'' legal.

Citizens who have legal concealed-carry permits are much more law-abiding than the general public. They are very rarely involved in crimes. This is probably due in part to the background check and finger printing that is required in most states to carry a legal concealed weapon.
