Well, the whole point of the article is that these aren't police. But in practice, that might not be apparent until it was too late. I found it interesting that the word "affluent" was used so often in the article. | ||

The police in Detroit have always been dangerous. That's one of the contributors to Detroit's crime issue, although never talked about. | ||

so basically if I get pulled over by an unmarked in Bloomfield Hills, I can flee? I mean, I thought they were THEM, your honor! | ||

"The police in Detroit have always been dangerous" This isn't just Detroit. It's so spread out it's scary, really. | ||

"The police in Detroit have always been dangerous." That assumption is absolutely wrong. There are bad apples in every police department throughout the U.S., but to say the Detroit Police have always been dangerous is a misnomer. | ||

So we pull into a well lighted area, what is to stop a robbery? Who is going to interfere in an apparent police stop? | ||

quote:Maybe a legitimate officer? I have a feeling they're very eager to catch these guys. It is a kind of identity theft and the police themselves are victims of it too. | ||
