<p>A statue of the futuristic film crime fighter RoboCop standing guard over Detroit is not in Mayor Dave Bing&#8217;s plans for the city.</p>
<p>That response from his office to the idea left on Mr Bing&#8217;s Twitter page spurred some online debate. </p>
<p>RoboCop on Tuesday was a top trending topic on Twitter.</p>
<p>Some tweets &#8211; either genuine or tongue-in-cheek &#8211; say a statue of the metal alloy-encased cyborg from the 1987 science fiction movie would help bring visitors into the city.</p>
<p>Others argue such a statue would play to the perception that Detroit is plagued by crime and violence.</p>
<p>Spokeswoman Karen Dumas said the mayor&#8217;s social media manager responded to the RoboCop suggestion, though Mr Bing on occasion does respond to tweets.</p>
