Stop deflecting the fact that Baltimore is the murder capital of America. This year alone there are already 300 murders, including 3 people last night. Meanwhile the last three mayors of Baltimore all quit or were forced to resign. All were Democrats. See the pattern? No of course you don’t. You’re too busy crushing on Trump.

No of course you don’t. You’re too busy crushing on Trump. Make the same analysis for Kentucky or West Virginia. Poverty isn’t necessarily tied to any politician . So no, there is no pattern. But if you want to go there, the same could be said about Republicans: The poorest states overall are Republican controlled. See a pattern? Blaming everything on X party is a naive and simple way to look at poverty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JADJane 6 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Complaining about trump on a pop forum does absolutely nothing but allow y’all to rant about the same **** every week. Even OP says his followers on here are “sheep” or will skip the thread- meaning the whole point of posting these threads has nothing to do with informing the misinformed and everything to do with preaching to the choir while doing literally nothing else to change reality. So yes, while I do agree DT is a racist, bigot, etc... I also think y’all (and it’s always the same group of people) are wasting your time logging on here every day to rant, fight, and spread negativity while you could be doing something useful or positive.

Blaming everything on X party is a naive and simple way to look at poverty. I was showing the correlation between violent crime and government failure to provide adequate sanitation. Want another example: look at the homeless epidemic in Democrat-held California, where streets upon streets are covered in syringes and faeces. Everything the Democrats touch turns to filth. Regarding Appalachia, the poverty there is tied to the rural nature of those states and the gradual loss of income from the closing of the coal mines, and it has been on a steady decline for the last 40 years. Clinton lost in 2016 partly because she declared that rather than trying to reverse the decline she actually wanted to expedite closing them all down!!! So sinisterly out of touch.

No of course you don’t. You’re too busy crushing on Trump. No one is “deflecting” here, but you. Have you lived in Baltimore? Do you know people who have lived there for years? It is as safe to live there as most big cities in the US. If you are not a gang member involved in gang wars, the likelihood of being murdered is ridiculously low. You are much more likely to die in a car on a trip to Target. Big cities with poverty and gangs have crime. That’s the pattern. That has nothing to do with Elijah Cummings being a good representative for his district and it certainly doesn’t mean that there aren’t over half a million human beings of every race and income level that make Baltimore their home and are happy living there. Of the top ten poorest and worst run states are red states. 1. Mississippi 2. New Mexico 3. Alabama 4. Louisiana 5. West Virginia 6. Kentucky 7. South Carolina 8. Arkansas 9. Georgia 10. South Carolina The vast majority are run by republican governors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
