The conservative media uses bashing blue states/cities as a way to scare people like David Miller. It sure is funny when a politician from a red state bashes his opponent by saying you don't want to end up like California or Chicago do you? That's what will happen if you vote for a Democrat when the truth is crime is actual higher in that red state.
They get away with it because the conservative media constantly primes the pump with this type of propaganda. Gullible sheep like David Miller fall for it every time. Right now David is probably eagerly awaiting his new Trump phone.

Answer - none of them are Chicago. Tom loses his argument so he makes a new argument.
The new argument is tired and refuted a million times on this board. Homeless people and paroled convicts all get moved to the local population center where state facilities support them. You're sleeping in a tent in the burbs - the cops pick you up and send you downtown.
I think it would be fun if states did the oppositte - round up all the homeless and send them out to the Republican burbs.

What they have in common is that they're all large cities. They have nothing else in common. And if stupid Tom is trying to make some stupid point about the politics of those cities--four are in red states.
Regardless, this does nothing to contradict PJ's reportage that 13 of the 15 most violent states are Republican.
Stupid Tom.
