In Detroit, on every Halloween for about 20 years, the Blacks were burning down large parts of the city. They called it Devil's Night.  The Devil's Night tradition is still alive and well but it's not as big as it used to be. Mainly because they have an Angel's Night campaign where big groups of people walk through some of the neighborhoods like a neighborhood watch sort of deal. There are still dozens of buildings being torched on Devil's Night all over south east Michigan, they do it up in Flint and Saginaw too. I remember back when they used to torch whole blocks of abandoned buildings, the fire department couldn't keep up. Home sweet home! :rolleyes:   Devil's Night is the night before Halloween though. I don't think it's just a Black thing either, maybe that's how it started I don't know but when I was a teenager all the White kids did it too. I helped torch an abandoned party store called Bud's when I was in high school...:eek: :hide Hung out with a bad crowd I guess, what can I say:D
