Crime in Detroit goes down… only 167 murders so far this year! Yippie! This year, in Flint there were 30 murders per 100,000 people… triple the national level. This is in comparison to cities that are 2000% larger than Flint, by population such as Washington DC, New Orleans, Chicago, L.A. and Detriot. There is barely 100,000 people within the Flint city limits! And guess what? To make the budget balance (or come as close as possible without fraud). Mayor Stanley of Flint is cutting at least 40 cops. Way to go! Whooo!
