Robocop in Detroit

Everyone remembers the movie RoboCop. If you don't, go watch it.

Anyways, people in Detroit and around the world have been trying to get a statue of RoboCop erected in the city. Hunderds of thousands of dollars have been donated and the city council/mayor of detroit are throwing a fit about it and saying no to the statue.

Now, I think the statue should go up. One of the major themes of the movie is re-claiming identity. Detroit is always complaining how their image is being crucified by people who have never been there (bs, the city is nearly as crime-riddled as anyone from another state may think it is) and it's all false they say.

Well, if not put up a statue of a crime-fighter who cleaned up the town AND took back his own identity, what better way to show a nice big fat middler finger to the world? Huh? Huh? And they don't even have to pay for it! :confused:

Worst idea ever. Detroit (and Chicago) need to be burned and destroyed. Maybe rebuilt. MAYBE.

Hey Chicago is arguably the coolest city in the US. The skyline is simply beautiful. The museum and art galleries are freaking amazing, and the nightlife is really something else. As far as big cities go I love Chicago. Now Detroit on the other hand I really couldn't care less about, except of course that my employers HQ is located there.
