Bloomberg News is ANGRY! Armed Detroit Citizens Are Having An Effect On Crime!

An article appearing in Bloomberg News accuses Detroiters of resorting to "gunning down burglars." The article acknowledges that the Detroit police force has shrunk significantly, doesn't have either the money or equipment to do their jobs, and responses to calls for help can take over an hour.

What really gets them, though, is this:

"Such headline-grabbing incidents belie a 25 percent drop in crime during the first three months of this year compared with the same period a year ago, according to police. Homicides fell to 45 from 68...

More than 29,000 Detroiters are legally armed and more are packing every day. The 6,974 concealed-pistol licenses issued to residents in 2013 were more than double those in 2009. Even more -- 7,584 -- were issued in 2012, according to the Michigan State Police. The number of unregistered guns is unknown," emphasis added.

In other words, while on one hand they deride Chief Craig for telling Detroiters to defend themselves, on the other hand Bloomberg News is forced to acknowledge that CITIZENS DEFENDING THEMSELVES WITH FIREARMS IS HAVING AN EFFECT ON CRIME IN THE CITY OF DETROIT!

Can I get an Oo Rah?!

Detroit Homeowners Gun Down Burglars as Police Await Cars - Bloomberg

If Bloomberg were as all fired interested in the well being of Detroiters as he would like everyone to believe, then instead of trying to disarm them, he would part with a portion of his billions to help equip the Detroit PD to do the job they were hired to do. 

Of course, THAT doesn't fit into his agenda of ridding the US of the firearms he hates so much (but with which he surrounds HIMSELF!)….
