[QUOTE="David2012, post: 1933437, member: 24428"] Just before the Detroit tiger's game Saturday night, police were handing out fliers telling fans-- [B]'Enter Detroit at your own risk'[/B]! The police are mad about long hours & cuts in staff. So part of this is scare tactics to get people to vote more funding for them. But the truth be told, people do enter places like Detroit & Chicago now days at their own risk. People have let their government disarm them so that their lives are at risk because they are facing well-armed criminals and there are very few police officers to show up [U]after a crime has been commited[/U] in order to draw the chalk line around the body. The rule is that police don't stop crime, they investigate it! I thank God that we have the Concealed Carry / Open Carry laws here in Oklahoma! ---------- [URL]http://www.myfoxdetroit.com/story/19755684/detroit-police-officers-tell-tigers-fans-enter-at-your-own-risk[/URL] [B] Detroit police to Tigers fans: "Enter at your own risk!" [/B][I]Posted: Oct 06, 2012 10:13 PM CDT Updated: Oct 06, 2012 10:27 PM CDT [/I]By Ronnie Dahl, FOX 2 News DETROIT, Mich. (WJBK) - The Detroit Tigers won game one of their division series against the A's on Saturday. As fans poured into Comerica Park, they were greeted by about 400 off-duty Detroit police officers with a political message. [B]Click on the video player to watch Ronnie Dahl's report. [/B] Officers handed out fliers saying when you come to Detroit you "enter at your own risk." They also urged people to vote yes on Proposal 2. "We're not discouraging people from coming, I love the city, I want them to realize we don't have enough man hours," said union president Joe Duncan. "I don't think the city is going to get same officer 8 hours a day as you do for 12 hours a day." Detroit police officers are working long hours. They're now required to pull 12-hour shifts in an effort to get more police officers on the streets. The schedule can be grueling. The long hours are not earning the officers any more money, their pay was also cut. Despite the warning, fans we talked to said they feel safe in the city. [/QUOTE]
