problem is.... if rioters are treated well in eu, will US be able to use 'just kill em all' ?

the USA has never given a damn about what ever the rest of the world thinks. most americans cant even point to iraq on a map.

i dont think your worry will see the light of day.

america will keep doing its own crazy lil thang until QE14 comes around and the yellow perril roll in their tanks via alaska - that day is sooner than you think.

I live in the Detroit suburbs. The reason it won’t sell quick is because of location.

Yep. Best house in a bad neighborhood. It'll sell in a heartbeat if you move it to Bloomfield Hills.

Quote from TGregg:

. . .Living in Detroit, one does not need to feel shame at not ever holding a job, being functionally illiterate (50% of the adult population), being poor, living on government handouts.

And the very next day on the front page of the local paper:

Free meals for all Detroit schoolchildren in fall
All Detroit Public Schools students will receive free breakfast, lunch and snacks in an effort to remove the stigma of being from a low-income family.

OMFG. Just read that paper! For instance:

Between 6 a.m. Friday and 6 a.m. Saturday, 15 people were shot in nine separate incidents. Dontavius' death isn't included in that tally because it occurred 12 hours after that 24-hour period.

Detroit just announced it will stop sending police to most of the automated home alarms.

I believe Aug. 22 will be the last day police will respond.

Sell your home before this date no matter what price you get.........

Detroit is a very hard place to describe to anyone from a real city, it has more then it share of gettos, crime and drugs, call the police lucky if they show up before the next shift starts, really.

Shitty weather
Shitty schools
Shitty political system
Shitty taxes
Shitty economy
Shitty crime
Shitty future

Still don't know why anyone would consider living in such a Shitty place.

Buy and hold baby! $299,000 for that thing? Just make sure it stays intact for another 20 years and then sell it at 3x or 4x the price. Deal of the decade for any average individual if you ask me.
