Maybe if Republicans were running any large cities they could make the list of running cities with increased crime rates. It's easy to blast the cities when you have no vested interest in running them.

While the statistics show that crime is increasing (everywhere), the folks who are blathering about that the most are just engaging in a fear campaign. Crime isn't the worst it's ever been. A look at historical data will show it has been much worse. We are a violent society. Look at the second chart that controls for population:

A quick look at violent crime rates by state shows that there are plenty of red states at the top, not just blue; and plenty of blue states at the bottom.

The obvious point you choose to ignore is the red states have violent crime in the blue cities, ie. Atlanta, GA; St. Louis, MO, etc. If you remove those blue governed jurisdictions, red states are very very low in the list.

No, I don't choose to ignore that. Once one starts looking into the violent crime stats of comparable size run by Democrats and Republicans one can see that the crime levels are in the same range...whether in red or blue states.

It seems to me this thread is just a make believe indictment of large cities, and the folks who live in them, with no statistical back up.
