"You folks just do not want the truth because you cannot handle the truth."
The truth? Mr. Lagana refuses to acknowledge the local, state and federal policies that helped contribute to Detroit's demise. Redlining, illegal real estate policies and subsidization of sprawl are all factors that helped contribute to Detroit's downfall. They're not the only factors but to pretend that it was Detroit's actions alone that led it to where it is today is neither historically accurate or an honest accounting of the causes of Detroit's decline.
