Right, so who would want these people to evacuate from Detroit and move into your neighborhood?

i'm pretty sure forbidden means you can't go there, not that you don't want to go there

Wait, I had an idea. So we can all agree on Detroit. We can also agree the US government has a lot of debt. Why don't they build a MASSIVE nuke plant right in detroit, and then make money by selling power to the nearby states/cities? Since it's only Detroit, it wont really need much safety features.

Detroit is a black mark upon the nation and a national shame. It should be revitalized or turned, in it's absolute entirety, into a refuge or a mini prison state or something really neat.

If the children or other family members will have access to the gun then they should be interrogated too.

We can also use teachers to enforce these rules, they can ask their students to be honest and if mommy and daddy are in violation of these rules.
