Because Grosse Pointe is on a water supply (Det. Water) engineered & run by qualified people. Flint INSISTED on taking over their own system, didn't have qualified people running it -people who would know that you have to add inexpensive phosphates to the system to prevent lead.

Racism did not pollute Flint water. Bad city management, bad county management, bad state management.... not racism!!!
