    Im pretty sure he took a commercial flight out and met up with his wife and kids there.

    He did share the private flight back with them though

    Ok. What does it take to get a recall going? The other question is how do you gather citizens together for such an initative? Are there other political loopholes designed for crooks to circumvent the system, or is this a matter of calling for a vote once the needed number of signatures are in, and the issue is on the ballot? What is the time-frame?

    Entertainers, celebrities, royalty, and politicians (except KING KK) pretty much accept the fact that they live their lives in a “fish bowl” and are subject to public review and scrutiny.

    When you are a politician responsible for, and in control of the public the trust (money?) you are absolutely accountable to the public for your actions and are subject to media review and challenge!!.

    Best regards!!

    Steve did an excellent job of factually documenting the KING KK use of charter aircraft. Cameras at both ends of the flight. I did some web surfing, the estimated value that Steve quotes for the four flight legs (two of them empty aircraft with no passengers) appear to be accurate. The question now is for how long, and for how many flights has this charade been going on. The cost of chartered flight time adds up QUICK!!

    The KING KK version of Quid pro quo, Latin for “something for something”. What Detroit treasure did he give away in return for the trip(s?)?

    EXACTLY!!!  KK's not getting something for NOTHING.  He's laughing at all of us, he thinks he's pretty slick.

    Ya know, Newguy, after ten years in court, and many attorneys and judges removed by me writing letters,,, I have a problem with your Quid pro quo, ,,, Most ppl don't understand that crap. Sorry to be a thorn in your side,,, but MOST ppl don't understand!

    You are not a thorn, I welcome the discussion. What part of “you scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours” do the people of Detroit not understand?

    I'm on the phone right now with pple in charge but not with it... Kk's gonna get to these ppl first

    We'll gladly take your check and many others to build that 30ft razor fence.  That way we would keep out all of your pedophiles, rapists, wife killers, etc.  Everyone knows that the scales of justice are not balanced so I'm not even going to discuss that.  You know what 'your kind' always do.  Strangely enough, though, you get away with it.  Because we don't have/never had the resources you have (regardless of who the mayor is/was) we are at a disadvantage.  Bottom line is the media's coverage is biased.  I'm sure there would be equal coverage across the board if Detroit was predominantly......non-African American.

    Amazon.............talk about strange.  What about the African-American/Black couple on the news today, who killed their baby and then BARBECUED HIM ON A GRILL!!  AIN'T THAT THE POT CALLIN' THE KETTLE BLACK!!  In my book, Detroiters are just NUTTY as ANYBODY ELSE!!

    A recall was started (see the included link), was approved and subsequently retracted because the petitioner was challenged by KING KK as a nonresident of Detroit. The petitioner has to be a Detroit resident. Any citizen of Detroit has the POWER to start proceedings for the removal of KING KK. The citizens put him in office, they can just as easily take him out of office!!

    Hi Newguy,

    If anyone within the private sector would mis-appropriate funds for their own use it would be called embezzlement!!

      I wonder, since he works for the citizens and the city, if he could be charged with embezzlement because of the way he has used the city's money?? Does anyone know if City Councel could charge him with this once their audit of his spending is done???

    Here is some more legal Latin for you that may explain KING KK’s legal team and spin managers. I still like Quid pro quo the best!

    Pro bono is a phrase derived from Latin meaning "for the public good." The term is sometimes used to describe professional work undertaken voluntarily and without payment. It is common in the legal profession and is increasingly seen in marketing, technology and strategy consulting firms. Unlike traditional volunteerism, pro bono service leverages the specific skills of professionals to provide services to those who are unable to afford them.

    Best regards!!

     

    Thank you ; I am going to have to send this forward Just because of the legal latin? Heads up ppl of the D. Not like you would understand now... unless you are the good ppl left, which is hard to believe, because of the bad ones still there!

    Mariez...........many educated people understand and use latin when appropriate.  Secondly, did you mean removed from a CASE?  Causde you certainly couln';t have removed any from the bench.

    I'm so soo sorry, but as an inadiquit pro, I would sugest that you are trying to bait me.... doesn't happen here.. Just plain ask me. You really wanna know where I stand Just North of the Border!!!
