Exactly. Thank you, again.

Wow.
Who is the equivalent of the Third Reich in Detroit?

The shooters. Ain't they always?

It's forty and some years ago since I last lay awake to the crackle of gunfire. And while you didn't have the drive by shootings so much, there was the lively possibility of being blown up. But there were not mass migrations: you got adept - or hoped to - at not being in the wrong place at the wrong time: joked about it (What's the fastest game on earth? Pass the parcel in an Irish pub) and always looked through the curtain before answering the door.
Most of my acquaintance stayed - prospered even. A few were maimed or murdered. But, as has been observed above, it is remarkable how life goes on - just with a difference internally.

Yeah. And there is also the reality that, no matter how active the " shooters" might be, the majority of ordinary citizens outnumber them, and they ( at least in Detroit and San Francisco) are not in any kind of position to actually make laws that permit them to carry on their activities with the support and encouragement of the government.
I guess I have a problem with the Third Reich comparison for two reasons- one, it really doesn't addres the reality of how difficult it was for the average Jewish person to emigrate at the time ( remember the refugee boats circling the waters and returning to Germany because no one would give them port?) and two, it tends to imply that the normal, law abiding residents of the city leading reasonably productive ( if difficult) lives are a cowering minority, when the reverse is true-- the shooters are the minority. What is to be served by the average person leaving the city to the thugs?

Or to the real estate opportunists, as Churchgeek said.
