What I was trying to say to Greenman is that it would not matter to MrSquished, I believe, even if the statistics were true, but I appreciate you telling me they are not. I didn't think to question them. In my opinion talk of crime rates are all about politicians trying to tell voters what wonderful jobs they are doing or how terrible the other party is doing. It's all about manipulating people with fear and I try to remember that death will follow you right into a bank vault. What I lack, again, is gratitude. Every moment, is it not a treasure with all the money in the world you cannot buy?
I think if the crime rate was high eski and mrsquish would acknowledge it. In fact I’d say that if, under democrat control it was a verifiable fact that the crime rate was higher than Republican controlled cities/states that they would acknowledge it. They would also have no problem criticizing democrats over their failed policies.
