PlusDetroit Mayor Violated Bond, Ordered JailedDetroit Mayor Violated Bond, Ordered JailedThe Associated PressA judge ordered Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick to jail Thursday for violating the terms of his bond in his perjury case by making a city business trip to Canada and not informing the court. (Aug. 7)Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is going to jail. It comes after a judge found out the mayor violated the terms of his bond in his perjury case by making an unauthorized trip to Canada last month. Only minutes earlier, the mayor apologized to the court saying for the last seven months he's been living quote "in an incredible state of pressure and scrutiny." But the judge sent the mayor to jail anyway, telling him he would have given the same treatment to any criminal defendant. Kilpatrick's attorneys say they'll immediately appeal the ruling. Earlier Thursday, Kilpatrick waived his right to a preliminary examination and will head to trial on perjury and other criminal charges. If convicted-- he faces up to 15 years behind bars. ___ ___, The Associated Press.

I think it is disgusting that a black can get away with stuff because he is black, it's like it's ok to punish whites who commit crimes but if we support convicted a black then that means racism? give me a break, crime is crime regardless of skin color, and Kilpatrick needs to be in a Gulag in Alaska to think about what he did, and work his butt off as well.

@xmichaelmyersii True. I'm White but I'm not proud because I didn't accomplish anything by being born with less melanin in my skin. It's not like I deserve a fucking award for my ancestor's DNA. Pride is a silly human emotion.

@willcanbe Prayer? Are you fucking kidding me? That piece of shit is incurable and prayer is for people who believe in magic. He's doomed.

@ratevideos Yeah Black people should stop being so quick to label their own people as an "Uncle Tom" (god I hate that ignorant, disrespectful, term) and try to build their city back up and remove the crime.

@betoelgrande1234 No, dick lips, this guy is truly a piece of shit criminal. Read up on things before you whine like a bitch and use the race card.

[Viktir666]

I hate this piece of shit. This guy is one of the big reasons that makes White people hate Detroit and the people in it. They judge the city's inhabitants by what they think about this guy.

[spagandtuna]

My niggas, I plead with you, stop electing low down brothers like this to lead you rinner cities just so you can stick it to the white man. This piece of shit has reinforced EVERY negative stereotype against the black man by HIS actions, not whit innuendo, etc. We will never move forward until you demand integrity from your own balck leaders. Period.
