Comment on Avalon Bakery expands by Mary Ann Pierce http://www.dtownie.com/2007/06/14/avalon-bakery-expands#comment-537 Mary Ann Pierce Mon, 10 May 2010 12:04:48 +0000 http://www.dtownie.com/2007/06/14/avalon-bakery-expands#comment-537 Visited the Avalon Bakery for the first time with a group from Ann Arbor on a Taste-full Tour with two fantastic ladies named Laura. The baker's talk about the bakery was followed by warm helpful service, and the opportunity to purchase a variety of delicious and healthy breads and cookies to take home. I can't go to Detroit's Avalon Bakery to purchase bread every week and there were some breads which I wish I had tried. I know there is a place in Ann Arbor to buy Avalon breads, but have not found the location on line. Do let me know where.

I know in my town, the skate park is used quite a bit and the kids like going their now rather than downtown. <a href="http://www.neongoldfish.com/" rel="nofollow">Toledo Web Design</a> It would be smart to do this and help keep the kids off the streets.

Since moving back to Detroit I've taken a real interest in finding out Why this hatred is so deep when t doesnt have to be and how can I help to heal the wounds. We have a wonderful city in this great state of Michigan(Detroit) I believe we all have a stake in this City, Black ,White, Mexican, Arabic, etc etc etc I hope to find ways to begin to blur the racial lines in this place.

Comment on Gun violence, gun control, bullet control, alternatives? by joe bloe http://www.dtownie.com/2008/11/04/gun-violence-gun-control-bullet-control-alternatives#comment-440 joe bloe Sat, 16 May 2009 19:44:42 +0000 http://www.dtownie.com/2008/11/04/gun-violence-gun-control-bullet-control-alternatives#comment-440 You mention European and Asian violent crime statistics, but you leave out a whole, and ultimately far more important form of gun violence: state-instituted warfare. With current knowledge, if I had the choice to move myself and my family in 1900 into Europe, Asia or the USA, I would be foolish to move anywhere but the USA, as Europe and Asia, using the same guns that trouble you so badly in PRIVATE hands, placed the guns in the hands of their governments, who promptly slaughtered HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS using those guns. It is NOT a coincidence that the USA and Switzerland, both countries with a tradition of gun ownership going back centuries, had safe and secure homelands while the rest of the world degenerated in to barbarism and holocaust. No one argues that the USA is a perfect country, and America's flaws are certainly plain to see, but it beats hands down the alternatives in Europe and Asia when viewed beyond the myopia of the short term. As Churchill once said "It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried." I think the same idea applies with respect to American gun ownership.
