And less per capita. Probably because knowing nothing else, for every 100,000 people you add to a city, odds are the vast majority aren't going to be violent criminals. And much less will be mass shooters. Cons love observing the total numbers by cities which is imperfect. Libs love observing the per capita numbers by state which is imperfect.
There's indicators I mentioned above, and the available stats are interesting for sure, cutting both ways. I was simply commenting on the usual derp deep Dem cities have crime nonsense. Like that's the cause. Derptastic.
All is pretty widely known. Politically speaking, the big cities in every state are rife with liberals.
And there is a good chance the guns used were not bought legally. Probably used by felons that can not by law have a gun. People that shoot other people are not concerned with gun laws.
While that may be accurate, virtually all perpetrators of violent crimes have no political ideology and almost all "conservatives" in every state support policies that facilitate the acquisition of firearms by criminals. While most criminals acquire their weapons illegally the lack of a national database of firearms purchases makes gun running the nearly perfect crime in terms of the probability of being caught. Keep in mind that guns that were sold to a criminal end user were almost always initially purchased legally and resold on the illegal market. Unless one ends up reselling a legally acquired firearm in an apparent illegal transaction to an undercover law enforcement officer the probability of being caught is near zero.
Yeah, I guess we could make shooting and killing other people a really serious crime...crazy, I know.
Or legal market. If i chose to sell one of my guns privately, there is no official record of that transaction. I can ask the person if they are legally allowed to own or possess a firearm, but I'm generally stuck with their answer unless I research individual county records and the Department of Corrections website. It would be nearly impossible to locate an out of state record.
Lib cities in conservative states are more dangerous than lib cities in lib states cuz of libs. That makes as much sense as you normally do. Red states are shit hole murder states that apparently can’t control their libs. Who’d elect those morons?
Maybe if the quip about Taylor Swift being ok … would have been deleted there would be no issues. But I’m just a knucklehead PE major.
Something about a " personal dispute". In that case why didn't they leave the crowd out of it and either shoot each other in a private location or do it the old fashioned way with fisticuffs? SMDH.
I'm going to go a bit further back. We should bring back Champions. Ukraine wants to keep it's territories, Russia wants them too. No problem. Zelensky and Putin in an octagon with an international panel of judges, with Rogan on commentary. Israel/Palestine, bring on your champion. China/Taiwan. Crips/Bloods. Republicans/Democrats (charge admission to that one). I'm not joking, but of course no one would get rich off military contracts, so my suggestion is just as likely as diplomacy solving these situations.
I don't think America wants to resolve foreign policy disputes in this manner unless we're going to start nominating younger candidates.
