Detroit, aka
Motown is where
Henry Ford was a pioneer
in motor cars. It grew, it thrived but good things do not last forever. This was
demonstrated by the arrival of Devils Night. It
has been around for a long time and was largely harmless fun. The
Wikipedia tells us
that it turned nasty in the 1970s then faded away in the 1990s. The
Wiki lies. It also claims
by omission that blacks were not the criminals who made it dangerous. You are
fully at liberty to believe the
Wikipedia. It is often
very good but when things get political, things change or, at all events
reportage does. The Wikipedia is part of the
Main Steam Media or perhaps, just a
Fellow Traveller. It has the same effect. The
Wiki has its system of editors. Tell it their way or get censored. An
alternative is the Metapedia; their loathing is
mutual.
Now Detroit is the
Abomination of
Desolation, which is why 97% of people have moved out.

But Not Why
Diversity Is Strength - Allegedly. It Is Also Devil's Night In Detroit Remember, Harvard sociologist
Robert Putnam found that the cities with the highest percentage of social capital/trust were
those that were the least “diverse—i.e. the most homogenous. Now imagine you live in a city that, presumably,
should have high social capital—90 percent of the inhabitants
are of the same race. But instead, that city’s government has to
issue “emergency temporary ordinance that requires anyone attempting
to buy gasoline in cans to provide identification, and a 6 p.m.
curfew for youths younger than 18,” from October 29-
Hallowe'en night
(Oct. 31). [Detroit
Angels' Night patrols ready to go, UPI, 10-26-12]. The
minors’ parent or guardian will also be issued a parent
responsibility violation ticket. [ Detroit's
Devil's Night curfew, gas ordinance to stay enforced during storm
conditions, By Eric Lacy, Mlive.com , October 30, 2012 ] Yes, we’re taking about 90 percent black Detroit. On “Devil's
Night” (October 30), the good citizens of Detroit have taken to
torching abandoned buildings and long-idle commercial real estate. Ze’ev Chafets
wrote the still-definitive account of the terror that strikes the
Motor City every Halloween eve in his 1991 book
Devil’s Night: And Other True Tales of Detroit:
I vaguely remembered
Devil's Night. When I was a kid growing
up in Pontiac, a grimy industrial clone of Detroit ten miles
north of the city, it had been a time of harmless pranks—window
soaping, doorbell ringing and rolls of toilet paper in the
neighbor’s trees. But it had been twenty years since I lived
there, and a lot of things had changed. One of them was Devil’s
Night. Three years earlier, in 1983, for reasons no-one understands,
America’s sixth largest city suddenly erupted into flame.
Houses, abandoned buildings, even unused factories burned to the
ground in an orgy of arson that lasted for seventy-two hours.
When it was over the papers reported more than 800 fires. Smoke
hung over the city for weeks. Even my friend’s dramatic description did not prepare me for
what I saw that night. On the streets of Detroit I could sense
the same rush of energy, the same sense of excitement that
always accompanies nocturnal action. Police helicopters circled
overhead and fire trucks, sirens blaring, raced form one
conflagration to another. Cops guarded the firemen as they
fought the flames. It was only when I saw the faces of the
neighborhood people, mostly older blacks with long coats over
their bathrobes, standing grimly on their porches, armed with
shotguns and garden hoses, protecting their property, that I
realized this was no homecoming rally; on Devil’s Night, they
use homes for kindling. My friend’s car was equipped with a police-band radio, and as
he drove from fire to fire he gradually became the leader of a
motorcade. At every stop, people gawked at the flames and passed
around bottles of whiskey and thermos caps of steaming coffee.
The suburbanites talked with bittersweet nostalgia about their
old neighborhoods in Detroit, pointed to childhood sites now
sunk into decrepitude and shook their heads. The message was
tacit but unmistakable—Look at what they’re doing to
our city. “ In 1954, the city had been 76 percent white.
Black population growth came courtesy of the
“Great Migration” of blacks from the South. In 1940, before
World War II defense plants led to the migration, Detroit was
90 percent white. Perhaps in honor of the “great revolution”—disgraced former mayor
Kwame Kilpatrick’s term for the July 23,
1967 black riot in Detroit, which left 43 dead, 467 injured,
7,2000 arrested, more than 2,000 buildings torched and
essentially ended white rule in Detroit—the children and
grandchildren of the victors in effect reenact their triumph every
Halloween eve. Life Magazine headlined its
typical liberal Main Stream Media cover story celebration of
that year’s riots
Negro Revolt: The Flames Spread (August 4, 1967). That has
proved unwittingly prescient. In the 1994 movie
The Crow, Hollywood took on the annual Devil’s Night
torching of Detroit, featuring one of its
favorite casting tricks—rarely found in real life— the
multi-racial gang. The central plot trope: a white drug lord
controlling three white and one black arsonist directs the flow of
organized crime in the city. As usual, Hollywood did not quite capture the essence of this
uniquely black celebration. Chafets put it best: “Look at what
they’re doing to our city.” In a city completely controlled by black politicians and totally
reliant on tax revenue from a black population that seems to have
trouble sustaining a First World economy (even when inherited, as in
the case of Detroit) it could be only a matter of time before money
to pay for public services like
firemen,
and the police necessary to protect them, dries up. Just a few weeks ago, Detroit police held an “Enter at Your Own
Risk” rally in front of Comerica Park before a Tigers baseball game
[Enter
At Your Own Risk: Police Union Says ‘War-Like’ Detroit Is Unsafe
For Visitors, CBS Detroit, 10-6-2012]. Just a few months
ago, an emergency Federal grant/infusion of $22.5 million was needed
to [ keep ] 164 Detroit firefighters on the job [Detroit
Firefighters Layoffs Curbed Due To Federal SAFER Grant, More Help On
The Way, Huffington Post, 7-9-2012]. Were David Duke suddenly in control of
Hollywood, it would be
impossible to script a more devastating polemic against
black-majority rule then what has actually transpired in Detroit
since both the “great revolution of 1967” and the election of Mayor
Coleman Young in 1973. Toss in the reality of this black-fueled
Devil's Night, and you’d have the type of script that D.W. Griffith
shot in
The Birth of a Nation. The sad reality is that Detroit’ Devil’s Night represent nothing
more than a funeral pyre for Western
Civilization. Although Mitt Romney is a self-proclaimed “son
of Detroit” he has evaded domestic issues like the descent of
our major cities into urban misery. But we aren’t far away from the
Republican Party being forced to confront the unmentionable reasons
Detroit burns every Devil’s Night. If it is to remain a viable national party, that is.
However, in the early 1970s, the vandalism escalated to more devastating
acts, such as arson.
This primarily took place in the inner city, but surrounding suburbs were often
affected as well. The crimes became more destructive in Detroit's inner-city neighborhoods, and
included hundreds of acts of arson and vandalism every year. The destruction
reached a peak in the mid- to late-1980s, with more than 800 fires set in 1984,
and 500 to 800 fires in the three days and nights before Halloween in a typical
year.[2]

The city's budget problems have deepened to
such an extent that it could run out of cash in a matter of weeks or months and
ultimately be forced into what would be the largest-ever Chapter 9 municipal

collide with those of labor unions wanting to protect workers' benefits, said
Eric Scorsone, a Michigan State University economist who has written papers on
municipal bankruptcy and on the state's emergency manager laws........ It could also be racially explosive. Detroit
has the largest percentage of black people of any U.S. city, with 83 percent of
the population identifying themselves as African American, black or Negro,
according to the 2010 U.S. census.

[ 22 June 2013 ] Areas of the city look eerily post-apocalyptic. There are currently 70,000
abandoned buildings in the city and empty schools, homes and once-grand 1920s

the exodus from the city of many businesses seeking safer surrounds and
economic desolation followed. Between 2000 and 2010 the population
decreased by 25 per cent and was hovering around 713,000 in the 2010
census - a drop of more than 60 per cent from its high in 1950. It's
likely to have fallen lower still in the intervening years....... What few schools remain open are racially segregated. Burnt out: Firefighters sift through the ashes of a

Detroit Mayor Gets 28 Years [
12 October 2013
] “I think everyone here understands Mr. Kilpatrick was convicted of
running a criminal enterprise,” Judge Nancy Edmunds said, adding the
enterprise started while he was still in the state House of
Representatives and continued through all six years he was in the
mayor’s office. Edmunds said the scheme to steer contracts to pal Bobby
Ferguson made projects more costly for a city that couldn’t afford it
and drove contractors out of business. The judge laid bare the accusations against Kilpatrick of fake jobs
for family and friends, lavish parties, pay to play schemes, and secret
affairs, saying he “has generally shown little remorse” for a bevy of
infractions. She said it was sad he chose to “waste his talent on
personal enrichment and aggrandizement,” when he had so many talents
that could have helped the city.

Detroit Most Violent City In America Says FBI
[ 30 September 2017 ] According to the FBI’s 2016 Uniform Crime Report, 13,705 violent crimes
were reported last year in the city compared with 11,846 in 2015. However,
the former world capital of auto manufacturing can take some solace from the
fact it doesn’t lead in murder. That honour falls to St. Louis, followed by
Baltimore. Detroit comes in third with 303 slayings in 2016. And despite mounting concerns over Chicago’s skyrocketing homicide rate,
it’s still lower than Detroit (28 per 100,000 residents in the Windy City
compared to 45 murders per 100,000 residents in Motown).

Devil's Night, or Hell Night, is a name associated with October
30, the night before
Halloween.
It is related to the "Mischief
night" practiced in other parts of the United States and the world, but is
chiefly associated with the serious vandalism and arson seen in
Detroit, Michigan from the 1970s to the 1990s,[1]
finally prompting the "Angel's
Night" community response.......
By the early 1990s, Detroit saw little decline in
Devil's Night
arson.[3]
After a brutal Devil's Night in 1994, then-mayor
Dennis Archer promised city residents arson would not be tolerated. In 1995,
Detroit city officials organized and created
Angel's Night on and around October 29–31. Each year as many as 50,000
volunteers gather to patrol neighborhoods.[4][5]
In 2010, however, the number of reported fires climbed to 169, a 42 percent
increase over the previous year.
