Wait, why isn't Illinois in there? I mean Chicago is the got-to deflection for RWNJs when murder rates are discussed, and you're telling me they aren't even in the top ten?
Doesn't really mean anything. It's like all the idiot rednecks on this forum claiming that all crime only occurs in "blue cities". It doesn't matter. Crime is crime. We're all Americans. Lets just fix it instead of pointing fingers.
Then why haven't the rates come down?Might it not be that people living in high crime States will vote for someone they think is serious about law and order?
You are right of course. And it would be nice if some of those rednecks would appreciate the point, but I don't think they will. In fact, I'm willing to bet the "crime worse in blue cities" argument will come up in this thread- if it hasn't already.Doesn't really mean anything.

Based on the OP it's about states where Trump won, so I assume the graphic was including just those; Illinois didn't go for Trump. The stats referenced by MSNBC have Illinois in 9th place out of 10.Wait, why isn't Illinois in there?

The right cannot claim any relation to law and order after January 6th, 2021.Might it not be that people living in high crime States will vote for someone they think is serious about law and order?

Nope. It showed all ten including two that didn't go to tRump.Based on the OP it's about states where Trump won, so I assume the graphic was including just those; Illinois didn't go for Trump. The stats referenced by MSNBC have Illinois in 9th place out of 10.

Yes, I am aware. I was engaging in hyperbolic sarcasm to make a point.Chicago is high, in terms of the absolutely number of murders, because it is so large.
However in terms of murder rates, while still significant, it is lower than many of it's smaller peers, having about half the rate of the deadlier major cities.
It trails other major cities like Las Vegas, Kansas, Memphis, etc.
Yeah, you're right, apologies. That's interesting though because in all of the stats that I've seen Illinois ranks higher than Georgia. I'd be curious to see where MSNBC sourced that list. I checked the CDC and some of the data matches while others don't.Nope. It showed all ten including two that didn't go to tRump.
Everywhere you go the high crime places are the high poverty places.Keep em' poor and dumb and this is what happens.
I don't make the news, I just pass it along.Wait, why isn't Illinois in there? I mean Chicago is the got-to deflection for RWNJs when murder rates are discussed, and you're telling me they aren't even in the top ten?
Of course it will. Republicans don't want to solve anything - they just want to convince Americans Democrats are Responsible for all their ills.You are right of course.

NO; The Right Wing white people in these states vote for who supports the most "White Nationalist Former Confederacy Ideals"Might it not be that people living in high crime States will vote for someone they think is serious about law and order?
