TimHauck 1,749 Posted October 24, 2022 6 minutes ago, Strike said: Yes states are bigger. Using your logic we shouldn't do states then. Let's do the entire country. No, let's just do the entire planet and be done with it. That sounds stupid, doesn't it? Now you know how you sound. The REASON I told you to do cities is that this issue is fairly isolated to blue areas, and cities are the appropriate sized entity for evaluating that data. Even in red states there are blue cities, and in some cases those blue cities contain a significant portion of the population of that state. That is WHY you should focus on cities. If you don't want to show your work, that's fine. I understand why you wouldn't want to. I'd just own you again. Righties like to “focus on cities,” because almost all actual cities are blue. Yes, most murders happen where most of the people are Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because the country is bigger than states. And there are a lot more people in the country than in any one state. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, most murders happen where most of the people are You're going to have to show your work regarding almost all "actual cities" being blue. And let's start with a definition of city. The BIGGEST cities are often blue but there are a lot of small cities. So, you'll have to show your work. But, let's assume what you say is true. Let's say 90% of cities are blue. We can still compare murder rates of red vs. blue cities. That's still valid data. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TBayXXXVII 2,069 Posted October 24, 2022 Death toll in US, by month, relating to crime... https://wonder.cdc.gov/controller/datarequest/D76;jsessionid=E3704E18FD4CA241D8768A71C070 Jan - 1702 Feb - 1461 Mar - 1686 Apr - 1742 May - 2061 Jun - 2245 Jul - 2408 Aug - 2326 Sep - 2162 Oct - 2348 Nov - 2222 Dec - 2213 Weird how the number seemed to jump in May. Anyone, what happened in May? Was it Covid restrictions? No, I believe that happened in March. There was only a slight tick up from March to April. But something... I can't quite remember what it was, but something did happen in May. Just can't put my knee on it for some reason. For comparison's sake, here's 2019... https://wonder.cdc.gov/controller/datarequest/D76;jsessionid=E3704E18FD4CA241D8768A71C070 Jan - 1574 Feb - 1356 Mar - 1467 Apr - 1444 May - 1662 Jun - 1673 Jul - 1729 Aug - 1639 Sep - 1647 Oct - 1610 Nov - 1625 Dec - 1715 So it looks like 1300 to 1700 is the norm, which it was prior to May. Again, can someone tell me what happened in May. I know Covid started around here in February and then restrictions started in March. But May, something happened in May. ETA: Sorry, I just checked the links and they didn't work. I did a research check... Started here: http://wonder.cdc.gov/ucd-icd10.html, then hit "I Agree" at the bottom. Then put the criteria you're looking for. I did cause of death from Crime, by month, in 2020. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean Mooney 1,182 Posted November 5, 2022 Did he nail this one? I will say this- I do think he is being a little alarmist....however it is a little troubling the amount of people on the upcoming ballot who are running with "election denier" as part of their advertisement package. I get the culture war stuff regardless of how silly I think it is but it is being used as cover for entrance by a lot of those candidates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,407 Posted November 5, 2022 That may be Mahers saddest one yet. I once was a big enough fan to drag my then girlfriend to see him at Foxwoods. But the constant foot stomping and rattle shaking about Trump has turned me off. He says what a great thing it was that we gave the Nazis a fair trial but thinks the Jan 6 hearings were fair, in the same monologue! Ok Bill, you’re officially off the rails. Also, enough with the canned laughter at unfunny things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he represents more of a centrist now that the Democrats/liberals have tilted so hard left. We have too few voices of reason available to not enjoy one who can hit the mark as well as he does.

He only calls out his side with broad strokes. He rarely, if ever, calls out the leadership of the left. He’s a party man through and through. Pointing out ridiculous aspects of the left generated culture war isn’t being some kind of centrist. It’s just calling out really stupid shite. BFD.

You're comparing apples to oranges. And yes, the Democrats and liberals are directly responsible for this type of whining, selfish, virtue signaling behavior we all call "woke".
