Hey, I’m a born & bred Detroiter and I’m not sure what you’re referring to by “The Detroit major mass-murder”.

Google wasn’t helpful, but I would love to know more; can you expand on what event(s?) you’re alluding to?

They probably meant "murderer", not "murder". First search using that instead resulted in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazelwood_massacre

He‘s German, and murderer is Mörder in our language, and pronounced like murder.

It‘s a mistake I make every now and then, as well.

this is not just an ad hominem, it is also senseless. "you can safely assume this person knows nothing of our history, because he finds our tourists annoying" is not a valid argument.

flagging for ad hominem
