by the Way . . .

How would you feel if your city was ranked for the second year in a row the most dangerous city in America, just because you had a few more murders, rapes, robberies, etc. than the runner up? Right. And this year Camden is fighting back with a rally with gospel songs, dances, and speeches against those "meaningless and insulting" crime rankings which scare off development. And they have a task force, a sheet of talking points, and a trolley tour to view a cleaned up street corner and the first library built in 100 years, among other attractions. And, they are below quota on murders this year, so unless they can pick up the pace over the holidays, they don't look like a threepeat (they only came in third in 2002). Go, Detroit!
