Your welcome.

People like to regurgitate things they hear without telling the whole story

My little one horse town has been incorporated since 1961, but has been populated for a very long time, and has never had a murder.

Looks like Baltimore had 344 murders this year. Not from there but that is ridiculous.

Yes the further breakdown of society also affects correct aiming of a firearm

no one has implied the statues have anything to do with that. They have been on the decrease the past several years in NOLA with a slight increase this year


I never said it did.

My comment had to do with the fact that the leadership of this great city is wasting time and resources on a farce, rather than examining and trying to fix actual societal problems.

Where was all this statue talk when Mitch was getting elected? Its an obvious PR ploy to keep in line with the national narrative.

My town of Spokane, Washington is the same size as Baton Rouge. We had 13 murders last year while BR had 71. Why? We don't have black people.

wonder how much of that is due to better health care and piss poor shooting. What's the difference in numbers of shooting victims?


Haha. Really?! You think the number of murders have gone down bc the thugs can't shoot as well as they did in the 90's?

You should never make an argument for anything of importance. You will just hurt your own cause.
