My point is that the OP makes this about Republican vs Democrat. A better question is this. Why is Bowie,Maryland, a predominantly Black suburb, have a markedly lower murder rate than Baltimore? Last I checked, Bowie has a murder rate of 1.7 per 100,000.

You have to be careful with Maryland numbers. Bowie is an incorporated city which is much smaller than the Bowie designated by the Census.
Having said that, Bowie is a generally low crime area.
I was talking about Bowie incorporated area. Bowie has a very large Black population and the area is low crime. Baltimore, on the other hand, is a violent city.
It's highly unlikely that registered voting democrats are the ones causing the violence, despite what the right likes to think.
Actually 70% percent of felons and criminals vote democrat.......but that’s obvious, just look around at their voters not just in the poverty spots — Hollywood celebrities who are some of the biggest substance abusers and sex assualters out there and they vote 90% or more democrat. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/j...r-as-democrats

Ok. Bowie is barely majority Black but is an outlier for Prince George's County which is 63%. That's been stable for a couple decades now.
And in Seattle, a liberal, Democratic-ran city, it took nearly 9 MONTHS for Seattle to reach 17 murders.
It takes a special hack to turn everything into a partisan blame game.
So, we are supposed to believe the murders take place because of welfare..... That might work with Alt-Right crowd a a Trump rally, but most people see through the BS
Yawn. Think I will dig out the old John Waters movies and watch Pink Flamingos. This thread makes me nostalgic for the good ole days in Mobtown. As someone who lived most of his life in Baltimore and now in Texas, these posters in conservative Texas cities have nothing to brag about. Yeah Baltimore has an insane murder rate but like the tee shirt says, “Baltimore, it’s more than just murder”. For someone who has never set foot in the city, you got no cred.
