DEABORN HEIGHTS, Mich. (WXYZ) — The Spirit Festival in Dearborn Heights was shut down early Saturday after large groups of teens caused disruptions, prompting organizers to end the night's events.

Early Dorris, a Detroit resident, was at the festival Saturday with his family when the chaos unfolded.

"We weren't here 30 minutes to an hour, a bunch of teenagers just running and causing chaos, making people run… there was a few fights going on," Dorris said.

Dorris described the scene as overwhelming."

When I was a kid, everyone had a bunch of kids. There would be one in every grade of the school (Catholic).

I don’t understand the concept of so many kids.

There used to be a flower plantation near our house. That was a nice feature in a neighborhood. You could go over there and pay $5 a head and they'd give you a mason jar and a pair of pruning shears. They went bust during the pandemic. It's sad. They'll probably put condos or a data center there now.

If I had more ambition and some more equipment, I'd plant a field of flowers. The thing is, per square foot, flowers are way way more valuable than vegetables.



This place is down the road too.

The guy that owns this operation lives on the property - I'd be growing weed. He probably does. He looks like he does.
They ain't going green. Not like we think, the 420 data center is all folks need. Right around the corner, it'll be tougher to take a shiit in peace than putting on your meta glasses and saying proof junior, fix me a hamburger ... Nice flowers, good place to smoke weed...

July 6, 1936, Route 66, New Mexico. This is Martha Evans, 32. She had been walking for three days. Her husband died of tuberculosis in Oklahoma in May. The farm was foreclosed. She took the six kids and a Radio Flyer wagon and started west for California. The twins in the wagon were 11 months old. The boys walking were 6, 5, 4, and 3. Her dress was torn on barbed wire. Her leg was cut and infected. She wrapped it with a feed sack. She had $1.60 in her pocket. A photographer from the Resettlement Administration saw them and pulled over. He offered her a ride. She said no. She said if she took a ride now, the kids would expect one every time they were tired. She gave him her name and kept walking. The photo ran in newspapers across the country. Donations came to a PO box in Barstow. She got $200 and a bus ticket. She made it to Bakersfield and picked grapes. All six kids lived. Three went to college. Martha died in 1978. The wagon is in the Smithsonian.

$200 in 1936 is like $90,000 now.

You need to smoke more and you'll get past that.
I doubt that.

Back in the 70's -80's  there was a straight looking fellow who ran a medium size greenhouse up the road, turned out he grew weed.  Darn good weed as I found out when his son got old enough for jr high.
