Why do you post these things? It's not exactly news - even if it

THOSE DUMB-ASS BRINKS COMMERCIALS

"...they perpetuate the stereotype that, no matter what else is happening, a
woman will always drop everything to answer the phone. If someone just broke
into your house ... are you going to run to answer the phone if it rings? "

Here's another commentary:

says that he will summon the police for her, the woman is almost wet with
gratitude. 'Thank you!' she breathes into the handset."

ONLY 4 STARBUCKS IN THE WHOLE TOWN- SNIFF

Detroit. Population 900,000.

No Chrysler or Jeep dealership. No national chain bookstores. No national
chain grocery stores. No Walmart.

"Navigating zoning rules and other red tape to develop land for big-box
stores that might cater to a low-income clientele is daunting."
