@fatatty: I'd be curious as to how much of that "honor" is owed to the egress of people. Unemployment does tend to go down if large populations have to leave to find work elsewhere.
I'm sure Detroit will be a lovely area to live once everyone's done abandoning it.
There were times on good ol' PoE-Red when someone would go way overboard with the furry-bashing (GRRR I WANNA KILL THE FURRIES RARRRGH OMG SO ANGRY, etc. etc.) but then I see something like this and think they didn't go overboard enough.
