What is wrong with you, policing, not getting stabbed, not getting shot, especially in brown and black neighborhoods where the rates are higher for violence is not a cultural issue.

Not only is rural America awash in guns but all those drugs they take don't mix very well with the guns Just now, Unforgiven said: They are self loathing anti American idiots, every last one of them.

What are the actual number? When you’re talking about 1 homicide in a population of 300, yeah that will make it look much higher. This is the dumbest argument. Give me hard numbers. Then let’s talk. If it makes you feel better give me numbers Vs the population, you’ll see how stupid this argument is. Find a bunch of apples to apples comparisons I.e. comparable population size in a Republican area vs a democrat area and you’ll see the democratic areas far out pace the Republican areas. I don’t expect small minded leftists to understand. Edited April 6, 2023 by HamSandwhich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy1 Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 The whole point of listing the rate per 100,000 people is to compare apples to apples with respect to population. Of course a city with 5 million people will have a higher absolute number than a rural county of 50,000 people, but that doesn’t mean it is more likely to occur there, just that more people live there. Rep vs Dem would be interesting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officers responded at 2:35 a.m. to a call reporting the stabbing and found Lee, who was visiting the city after having recently moved to Miami, according to NBC Bay Area. He was declared dead shortly after he was taken to the hospital, per a statement from San Francisco police. No arrests have been made, and police haven’t released any details about a potential suspect. After Lee’s death was reported, an outpouring of grief and remembrances for the tech executive, who also was the chief product officer at crypto startup MobileCoin, flooded social media. And along with the grief came a flood of anger over the state of San Francisco, which tech leaders have previously called the “worst run city in the United States.” This aged well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is that cut from? why did you leave out this nugget? The results are somewhat different when looking at gun murder and gun suicide rates separately. The places with the highest gun murder rates in 2021 included the District of Columbia (22.3 per 100,000 people), Mississippi (21.2), Louisiana (18.4), Alabama (13.9) and New Mexico (11.7). Those with the lowest gun murder rates included Massachusetts (1.5), Idaho (1.5), Hawaii (1.6), Utah (2.1) and Iowa (2.2). Rate estimates are not available for Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont or Wyoming. And its interesting how they never explained how age adjusted was figured in the formula.
