Life in "Progress" City

From the city of Detroit, who hasn't had a conservative run the city since Lewis and Clark were drawing maps.....

At least 7 in 10 people who committed murder in this city last year have gotten away with it.

The most generous interpretation of 2008 homicide warrants and convictions supplied by local law enforcement officials shows that in more than 70 percent of homicide cases no suspect has been identified, arrested, charged or convicted of a killing.

"The reality is, we have a reputation in the state that if you want to commit a crime, come here," said Kym Worthy, the Wayne County prosecutor who said she does not challenge the analysis. "The chance of arrest is quite low, the chance of prosecution is quite low. What does that say about the commitment to the public's safety?"

The state? Try the world.........

What's so "progressive" about wanton violence?
