    I agree. The fear mongering of a few years ago was ridiculous. It is just fascinating how some people are so eager to hang on to it.

    Va - Why let a dumb little thing like FACTS get in the way of partisan politics?

    You should really keep reading your own quote...

    I'd suspect the reason for that is because people report dead bodies. Officially, a murder is declared after investigation. Rape statistics are based on the reports of rapes occurring. Even rapes that give you cognitive dissonance when they are adjudicated against your favorite political candidate.

    Because md, this is a well worn GOP strategy. Democrats, People of color, especially the "darker" they are, immigrants, Arabs, Queers, intellectuals, academicians,
    secularists, the poor, or those that strive for a more progressive society are......THE OTHER and all threaten their life, their limb and of course their Constitution.

    Regarding the Constitution, that MATTERS to them under Biden.

    However, when Trump declares he "won" the election again, irregardless of the vote, and declares himself plenipotentiary of the American people for life, under the authority of Clarence Thomas, the same GOP hypocrites will happily shred, burn and piss on said document, all while waving, the American flag.

    Ha ha, yea I lived in Miami during the 80s with the cocaine cowboy shootouts , the marielito crime wave, liberty City riots, etc etc. Good time to be a crime reporter I guess. Never impacted me, but crime stats had only one way to go after that.
