Voltaire 4,558 Posted December 6, 2017 Oh thank the Lord. Every ten years with the census, Michigan loses a Congressional seat. Detroit city has shrunk from 2M people to 700K and by all rights should be condensed into one congressional district but thanks to the "Voting Rights" Act has to be split into two to form two majority black districts. So every ten years, I sweat bullets that I'm going to get absorbed into John Conyers' district. To have him as my Congressman would make me sick. Thankfully that never happened and now... it never will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TimmySmith 2,782 Posted December 7, 2017 His son was arrested in February for stabbing his wife. But, did he harass her? I am sensing a gray area here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
