MoneyGeek came up with this year’s list by analyzing the FBI’s crime statistics for 2021 (the most recent year of available data), including violent crimes such as murder, rape and aggravated assault, as well as property crimes such as home burglary and motor vehicle theft. The company looked at 263 cities with populations greater than 100,000.

Exactly the point I was going to make. Violent crime is generally tried and legislated under the jurisdiction of the state government. Most of the cities listed are places where a Dem mayor is elected in large cities in red states in a effort to mitigate the disaster that the cities are burdened with under the state government. There is literally not much a mayor can do to change the outcomes of policies enacted by the state.

In a Democrat-controlled WH.  Continents next?

You can close your eyes if you'd like, but the data shows leftist policy is broken when it comes to violent crime.  Partly because they do so little to treat the root cause and instead inflame its errancy.

If you actually stopped and really analyzed this more, just based on what you said even, you might actually surprise yourself. You might even go down a road where you question current gun laws. But you won't. Instead you'll accuse others of closing their eyes.

America's violent cultural issue is much more relevant to the discussion that blaming a governor.   So the mayors are the ones to clean ups the "red" mess at the state policy level, yet red districts around it to not have the same levels of crime?  

It's a conservative issue, not cultural, no culpability for the mayors, no corollary to big city at all?  Just conservatism?  SMH.

What was Lori Lighfoot's excuse?

Red cities, agnostic of governorship, are not littering the list.  It's leftist cities.  I'd contend there's a bigger issue than Governor vs Mayor.  

But, if we want to stay there.  Same linked site on page 294.  We can't blame Indiana's governor for this list.  And I have my musings on why Colorado Springs is here...

you said the democratic policies are leading to all the shootings.    yet the list you provided should have been dominated by blue cities in blue states if it was democratic policies leading to all the killing.     this is a different list i will have to go check but why was the original list not dominated by the blue states and blue cities?
