Ruin porn is something most to Detroiter's take issue with. Having someone develop a tour bus around it is ridiculous in my opinion. I'm about to go meet b_b in Detroit right now. While it's not the safest, or cleanest city by any stretch, there are a lot of special things happening there. I agree with those critical of the ruin porn tourists that Detroit has many positive aspects that people should focus on as well. But, that's life right? People prefer to focus on the negative. It's definitely more lucrative to focus on the negative.
