[FOXNEWS] The city of bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit
... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang...
is trying a new tack during a year in which it, like many other U.S. cities, saw violent mostly peaceful protests and destruction in the streets.
Detroit has filed a lawsuit against Black Lives Matter activists, alleging a "civil conspiracy" and claiming the protests in the city "have repeatedly turned violent mostly peaceful, endangering the lives of police and the public," according to reports.
The city claims the activists participated in the conspiracy, "defamed" the mayor and police, and contends that the city should be awarded damages, The Intercept reported.
The city cites four protests that occurred in the city this year, and alleges that injuries to coppers included "cracked vertebrae, lacerations, and concussions," according to the report.
