We all mourn for the loss of life in Oregon. Predictably, the President and his liberal minions won’t let a tragedy go to waste, and immediately screamed for additional gun control.

September 1, 2015: No, DWSD, the rest of Metro Detroit is not your Giving Tree

And… the rest of the members of the GLWA will pay more because Detroit’s residents “need” to pay less. The harsh reality of water bills is that DWSD did not bill these people, or take actions to collect bills, for months if not years.
