I can't pretend to understand your situation, but I, too, have observed the current trend of less and less respect for human life; in other words, by those who have embraced evil and destroy everything they disrespect. Unfortunately, this cycle has repeated too many times over the course of history.
The only answer is to be a light in the darkness and continue to tell stories of what you live in and hope for a better future. That may seem a trite answer but words have a powerful impact and the written word lives forever.
In your area, sounds like life is becoming more like a war with the bad guys winning.
This movie has played countless times over the years.
You ARE Detroit! You represent all the things I love about being a Detroiter. Thanks for being such an amazing ambassador of this place we call home. For what it’s worth, I truly admire you, your work and look forward to reading you everyday!
I’m sorry you’ve been through all of this. I’ve never been shot at, but I think I can relate to you to a degree. I live in a bad area as well. It’s not as bad as it used to be before I moved here, but it’s still not great. I don’t think I can walk 5 minutes in any direction from my home without being close to a place where someone was murdered. I’m also stuck living with someone I’ve had to call the police on a few times.
Someday, I hope to live in a nice town. I hope that for you too.
Have you seen Barbarian?
Thanks for the reminder that none of us are bulletproof. F’ing damn guns...
Thanks for the gut check.

Dystopia never lasts.
Keep up hope, my friend.

Man, gunshots. Keep your head down but your chin up. Love you.
