Outside Looking In

I recently came across these reviews, I was actually shocked at some opinions and disregard for citizens feelings shouldn't but really amazes me. The people that are bashing this town and it's population from visits and temporarly staying here should feel shame and should not judge. No one is perfect,no city is perfect,crime,envy,blight,anger,violence and corruption happen everywhere. We all all only human. There are generations of families who are rooted here, born here,their family is here and are too closely connected to family to just leave. I will admit as a Homeowner in Detroit(and expensive Dog Owner of 2 toy poodles LOL!) it is not a place for the weak, the shy, the gullible or the soft spoken. Detroit produces STRONG people. Its sad that people who are rooted here have to see the horrible things that people post on the net to mentally break them down about things that some people dont have the means to change, actually love this city and dont want to leave it. Detroit isn't for the faint of heart I guarantee you wont be bored here, there is always something to do to, somewhere to party, somewhere to pray (no matter your religion) somewhere to eat, somewhere to play and as far as diversity and acceptance, people from all over the world live here. My heart goes out to the BITTER people who posted these things, they probably dont know struggle, born with a silver spoon in their mouth and have no empathy for the citizens they might be hurting with the cruel, judging, heartless, disgusting post about the people of Detroit for their 1-3 experiences with people and places here. Hope you dont fall off that pedestal you have put yourself and your ithinkiamaboveyou city on cuz if your a weak person you wont have the strength to get back up again. ( The type of people that might kill them selves and their family because they lose a high paying job and cant afford their mortgage anymore (no offense to anyone who's love ones this may have happened to, I'm just using a example of WEAK materialistic people) Peace and Love folks!!!!!
