#2 Oh, we have been sharing in the sacrifice that is Detroit for decades.

When I was a schoolboy, at the end of the year we would take a field trip to the zoo or the art museum. And it was great.

A decade later the Mayor declared success against vandalism, because less than 1,000 buildings were burned on the night before Halloween. And it was sad.

A decade later I was accosted by a prostitute on my way from the parking lot to a Tigers baseball game. And it was disgusting.

A decade later my Brother-in-law had his skull fractured in an altercation on 8-Mile. And it was scary. I moved to Ohio.

A decade later people from Europe traveled to Detroit to take ruin-p0rn pictures for their newspaper, and were mugged and beaten. And it was horrid. I moved to St. Louis.

What will be the story in the next decade? Probably worse.

DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOUR CITY.

In summary:
* Enforce the Law.
* Punish evil and corruption.
* Encourage honesty and the people who work.
* Support those who support others.

#3 The problem with the 12 step program is that the parasite will never acknowledge its a parasite, so it eventually kills the host.
