The point is, those things shown were not results of rioting after a win (10 PLUS years ago, BTW!). They are very real, everyday images of a town that was once glorious and is continuing its struggle to rebuild. They were not poking fun at stupid rioters, they were endorsing the "Detroit is a piece of sh*t" mentality that so much of the country has. Detroit has made some great strides in the last few years and people constantly beating it down doesn't help.

And it's not "funny".
