It seems I have new "Legal Geniuses" (trademark pending) hailing from the historic Detroit law firm of Dickinson Wright, are fans.
They really liked my piece on Bob Young and the Gang.
Bob and the Gang came out of Dickinson Wright, which probably means they were directly hands on in construction of the scheme in the rape of Detroit called the Grand Bargain.
They allowed the Detroit Land Bank Authority which never incorporated, to be a creditor of the City of Detroit.
Get em, my #Superfans...
