Talk:United States Conference of Mayors

Unsourced statement
I put in the following into the text: The scheduled 2008 meeting was set for Detroit, but was moved due to the legal travails of Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. I do not have a ready source for this, although I believe it to be true based on what I read in the Detroit papers at the time. Maybe somebody has an available reference and could help? I think it is pertinent, and it was done because of the distraction element (not to mention that it would run contrary to a lot of thtngs this organization nominally stands for). Some of you seem to have better sources on the comings and going of the conference than I. Thanks. 7&amp;6=thirteen (talk) 00:18, 24 January 2009 (UTC) Stan
 * FWIW I was wrong. The National Conference of Black Mayors moved its meeting.


 * Detroit scandal costs city mayors' meeting. Here is an excerpt from the relevant article.
 * DETROIT, March 1 (UPI) -- The National Conference of Black Mayors plans to move a meeting from Detroit to New Orleans because of the scandal involving Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. ..
 * "When we saw what was going on," Williams said, "we were reaching out to the mayor's office to say, 'Are we OK?' 'Is the conference OK?' The response was that the mayor wanted us to go to another site." The conference meetings usually attract 300 to 400 mayors. With staff members, total attendance was expected to be about 2,500 people.  7&amp;6=thirteen (talk) 16:50, 25 January 2009 (UTC) Stan

Experience teaches that it is better to be truthful and admit error than it is to willfully keep spreading bullshit. I do think that the National Conference of Black Mayors might deserve an article. 7&amp;6=thirteen (talk) 00:46, 28 January 2009 (UTC) Stan
 * Have at it. I had enough trouble trying to get this one up to snuff.  I am still troubled by it in fact.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 07:36, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Crackdown on Crack
Mayor Nutter has declared that he is against crack. The rampant violence in Philadelphia reached another low this past weekend when a pair of crackwhores smoked Philadelphia Officer Moses Walker when he was walking home from work.

The Crack of Somalia has reached the point of mutilation. A conference has been called but the building collapsed.
