My state has the 8th highest violent crime rate in the country. My town where I live is in the 93rd percentile.

That means almost 19 out of 20 places in the US are safer to live than where I do.

And you’re right, curiously no one is talking about doing things like that here. Odd that, aight it?

Maybe it's not about crime rates at all. Maybe it's about making citizens getting used to the presence of armed forces in the streets.

Red states have blue cities. If those cities were important he'd send the national guard, he might.
