eric42434224 1 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 How are they idiots? It doesnt look like the extra time they took to inform the authorities was going to make any difference....the guy was a popsicle for a while. Plus they werent supposed to be there in the first place. Kudos to them for their love of the game! LOL ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
number21 3 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 That's so fucking depressing.I am not from Detroit, but I am from Michigan, it's sad (to me) to see things like this knowing that city is just continuing it's downward spiral.That was a person, good or bad, he died a death I wouldn't wish on anyone.

dcdot377 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 it happens in most citys around this time of year. last year in boston a guy froze to death on a park bench and was not discovered for 3-4 weeks after he died. it is unfortunate for the homeless people that every day is a struggle to stay warm and survive. when you combine a crippeling economy with the cold of winter you this is what you get. every day more and more people are becomeing homless. some of them have no where to go. and unfortunatly, shelters are often overcrowded and underfunded and can not handle the large mass of people. it is very sad and very depressing.

Hordie Gowe 17 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 It takes 24 hours from when the reporter first called 911 for someone to finally show up? Wow.This seems straight out of the world of The Watchmen. Just brutal.\The key in Detroit is having the right police phone number, I bartend at a small neighborhood bar on the edge of the city a couple times a month and the cops gave us a number to call if there are any problems (it wasn't 911). Only had to call it once but the cops were there in less than 5 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greech 4 Report post Posted January 31, 2009 People really don't care anymore. A guy collapsed on the T (our mass-transit system) during rush our this week and the train continued for 22 minutes until it stopped to meet EMS. The train went through multiple stops and even left a stop when it decided to not wait for the EMS dispatched to meet them there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
