The most conservative city in America has the same murder rate as Seattle, but in the most conservative city in America you are over 2x more likely to be raped. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o..._by_crime_rate
Perhaps republicans should focus on the extremely high rates of rape in conservative cities, instead of focusing on the poop on sidewalks in liberal cities?

You simply went back to Google to find a stat that fits your meme. You still believed Dallas was a conservative city and made a fool of yourself in the process.
Perhaps Dems should start being concerned for ALL the citizens they promised to represent instead of the people they want for votes.

That you could actually type such nonsensical gibberish believing it actually makes sense is beyond the pale.
Why is common sense such a hard thing to grasp? Why are progs allergic to rational thought?
All progressives have are hate and vitriol. It;s their way or the highway and the vast majority of the country is finding this out. We're all sick of it. Find common ground or become irrelevant.
Political party, liberal or conservative, has absolutely nothing to do with the joblessness, lack of manufacturing, lack of brick and mortar retail shops, robot replacement, and general lack of industry in many urban areas of our country.
Unemployment and poor wages promote hopelessness, despair, depression, and chemical dependency.
These are all symptoms of a failing economy. Despite what gets reported by the news media, our economy IS faltering.
Seattle seems to be doing quite well actually. Unemployment rate for March 2018 was 3.9%, down from over 10% in February of 2010.
Indeed dot com is currently listing over 37,000 jobs in the Seattle region. The per-capita personal income has also risen sharply since 2010.

I see that, and raise you Tulsa. Tulsa is a Republican-ran city. Tulsa's rape rate is 90.9 rapes per 100,000. It ranks 7th in the USA for rape. Ranking #8 is Wichita,Kansas, another Republican-ran city. 89.5 rapes per 100,000.
Something else. Tulsa had 81 murders in 2017 and 82 in 2016. Consider that Tulsa just hit 400,000 people around 2015/2016. For the past two years, Tulsa has had a murder rate of 20 murders per 100,000. 74 people were murdered in King County, WA. 27 of those murders occurred in Seattle. Seattle has 1/3 as many murders as Tulsa while having a population of 704,352 people. King County,WA, has a population of
2,188,649.
More people were murdered in Tulsa city limits than in King County,WA, and we're talking about a county with over 2,188,649 people vs a city of 404,170 people. King County only had 74 murders, with 27 of them in Seattle city limits. Tulsa by itself had 82 murders in 2016, and 81 in 2017. Tulsa is a conservative city, and it has more problems with rape and murder than Seattle.
The liberals running these cities will just keep ignoring the humanitarian crisis that is brewing in Western Cities.
It is so weird how it is being ignored. As one poster on here said these cities will have to go rock-bottom before they even think about addressing their issues.
I don't think Seattle, LA and San Francisco have seen the worse of this homeless crisis. It will get much, much worse with zero chance of getting better. The liberals running these cities will either ignore it or raise taxes in the name of helping these people but it a vast majority will be wasted and given to politicians friends.
Odd thing is how liberals brag about the fortune they spend on a small, old house in these cities that literally every time they walk outside the door of their ultra-expensive home that has little square footage they are greeted with negative, stressful and disorderly social situations.
Seems like every Western city I have been in recently it is the same: Lots of people walking around the zombies high as a kite, always looking at where one is walking because of the possible needles and poop, vomit and strong urine smells in certain areas.
