I find it interesting this incident took place in Dearborn Heights, adjacent to Dearborn a sundown suburb. In 1928, Fordson and Dearborn merged to prevent being absorbed into Detroit. Ford Headquarters is located there as well.
Theodore Wafer’s home was an inheritance, so that would essentially mean that his family lived in that area since the initial residential restrictions against most POC.

Some neighbors will shoot at you if you are on their property. We live out in the country. If they do hit someone, their will be a shit storm of lawyers and law suits.

There is little police protection so everyone is armed. Was he in a high crime area? Was it at night?Dearborn has a lot of Arabs, ate they law abiding. I moved out of Dallas after a bullet went through my front window and missed me by inches.

2) The incident didn’t take place in Detroit but in Dearborn Heights, a community full of white people. So your 1967 reference makes no sense.
