It is amazing how we get in a position of Authority and then believe we are above the law. As a public official it should be your duty to uphold the law and follow it just as if you were a regular citizen.

Kilpatrick hammered the last nail in his own coffin a few weeks ago when he made the racist remark: "How can a black woman be riding in a car with a man named White?" just after he had assaulted a Detroit cop.

You don't seem to get that the COURT ORDER is issued by people in government that obviously have a grudge against this guy.
I hope that one day all of our eyes can be opened and we can start to see through the bull. Until we get over this pettiness that seems to find its way into all of our lives we will never be able to be the country that need be.
Detroit has one of the countries worst economies. The city is literally dyeing. This guy is trying to get their budget on track by handling city business and you think that he should go to jail for it.
All I GET from you is a lack of insight.

<quoted text>Why do you think the court has a boner for this guy? He cost the city eight million dollars because of his sleazy behavior and lies! And if the court is out to get him maybe he should not be stupid enough to violate an order from that court. Just because he is black does not make him innocent as you seem to think. And by the way, the prosecutor who charged him is a black female.
