Rock City Troubles

More news on our case study in collapse: Detroit's city bus drivers have stopped driving.

“Our drivers are scared, they’re scared for their lives. This has been an ongoing situation about security. I think yesterday kind of just topped it off, when one of my drivers was beat up by some teenagers down in the middle of Rosa Parks and it took the police almost 30 minutes to get there, in downtown Detroit,” said Gaffney.

Forget about the hilarity of a (say it quietly, "black") bus driver being being by (even quieter, now, "black") teenagers on a street named after Rosa Parks.  It's best not to mention that sort of thing, after all.  Remember what I said way back in the way back about police response?  Yeah.  I totally called it.
