The previously beautiful Northwest

Well, it used to nice until the Kevin's of the world got into power.  The Kevin's of the world will be losing this power and this nonsense will largely end.  Send this punk to jail for a decade, and send a message to the other punks.

Yeah, sure. Even if this story is true (and given that it's from Yahoo, and posted by Boiler, the chance of that is vanishingly small), the actions of one individual don't reflect on anything about an entire multi-state region.

 

Or maybe Boiler thinks that the actions of Joe Hammer, who attacked Paul Pelosi, are reflective of the state he comes from? Or the party he belongs to? I wouldn't go there if I were Boiler. I could find dozens of violent nutjobs, and without exception, they'd be disciples of the RepubliQ and hail from red states. Conservatives try to solve problems by killing people. Liberals try to solve problems by doing good things and voting.

Eight out of ten of the states with the highest murder rate are Red States.

 

Boilerman loses again.

  The reality -  in most of the red states,the high murder rates are driven by the lethal violence in their blue cities - ,https://www.aei.org/op-eds/the-red-state-murder-problem-thats-just-a-democratic-driven-myth/

Of course, high-density areas (cities) in Blue States have a much, much, much, much, much, MUCH lower murder rate than those in Red States.

 

Go figure.

😂 Who makes the criminal laws in those states?  Who provides funding for the police in those states? Who appoints the judges in the state criminal appellate court system? It is the Republicans in charge of those Red States that do all of that.  Forget crime, a lot red states fail at providing basic services to their cities like clean water and schools. Why do red states fail so badly? Conservatives, including Trump, are always making the argument they should have the Federal Goverment take over blue cities in blue states because Democrats can't manage crime. Don't you think they should start with the crime infested red state cities?

            Horseshit.

There wasn't anything in their inaccurate. Republicans in Red States control the funding for the  police in their blue cities. The sad reality Republicans just don't want to fund majority minority cities in their states. It would mean taking money away from the white rural areas in those states.
