      Did you guys hear about the theater that was turned into a parking lot? That picture you posted almost looks it might be the theater before conversion

      Built on the birthplace of the Ford automobile, the once-opulent Michigan Theater is now a three-story parking garage where one can view the decay of a legend.

                    Real great cross section of photography, having been to Detroit a few times, it almost feels like being on a movie set, the shear amount of abandonment is overwhelming yet contains a mysterious element to its enduring existence.

                    All in all...I think I will be going back there some time soon

                    So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

                    1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
                    2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
                    3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
                    4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

                    Am I close here?
