Map Reveals Most Dangerous States to Live In

I wonder which states have the most hyper-partisan Democrats pretending they are somehow independents?

Oregon has to be right up there.
 
Crime is only one measure of danger. The roads are deadly, as well.


A recent study found the deadliest cities during rush hour. Memphis also tops this list.



Fairly spread out politically.
 
" environmental and infrastructure factors, such as air, water and road quality, as well as birth complications,"

what idiocy is that to determine "dangerous" ??
...those things don't cause harm? Is that your argument?

a swimming pool can cause harm, do we add it in "dangerous" categories like murders and rapes ?

c'mon - everybody can see the stats are twisted to get the results they wanted

And the original report and “study” had no info how the factors were weighted.

I'm addition to crime. Total package.

But you have trouble understanding beyond knee-jerk emotion....

What are the weightings of the various factors? Is crime equal to clean water? Or is it equal to air pollution?

There is no data provided so this “study” is basically an opinion piece with a predetermined conclusion.

CA, NY, NJ - are are wealthy and diverse states.

Try again.
And they are less dangerous because they are rich and white?

Yes, this was the point. Thanks for the examples.
 

Republican states also often have more traffic fatalities per capita. There it can also be possible to learn from European cities and counties.

Well, we know that liberals are racist at their core. They have the racism of low expectations for those who aren’t white.

And you've provided no data to suggest the map is based entirely on water and air pollution.

Others here have already posted reliable studies showing us the most dangerous cities and states and it's not DC by a long stretch.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump is just using this excuse as a dry run for martial law.

And you have provided no data to prove that is based on anything but the opinions of the authors.

The study says that crime is only one part of what makes a state dangerous. Why are you cherry picking data?
