Miami, Jacksonville was for the last 14 years changed last November, OK City, Fort Worth which is the other 1/2 of Dallas Airport are GOP lead. I'm sorry but you don't get to pick and choose what elements of the state you lead your responsible for. With that kind of mentality should cities simply keep the tax revenue they collect for the state and use it themselves?
Crime in cities make the news but don't act like the non-urban areas are any better because that's where most of the gun related violence and accidents actually get measured.
It would be logical to expect cities to have higher violence numbers than rural areas due to the higher population densities. Anyway, a quick look at Florida gun violence returned this result.

How many mass shootings happened in Florida in 2022? The Gun Violence Archive lists 31 mass shootings in Florida in 2022.
Pay-back was expected after apartheid. I'd get the heck out if I was them.
Todays Boers are not the ones that created apartheid, and that which existed in their lifetime was getting progressively weaker. Their rule caused financial opportunity for blacks who now seem bent on destroying that.
Nevertheless two wrongs never make right and the fact you seem to condone genocide is apalling. Apartheid didnt kill blacks, what makes you believe killing whites for apartheid is justifiable "payback"?
Almost all the white farmers being killed had black employers, many of whom also get killed trying to protect their employees.
The killers are particularly brutal to them.
In the end the whites will be driven out and then South Africa will just be another country on the continent where poverty, starvation, disease, and brutal violence are just part of daily life. And they and the world will go through mental gymnastics to find ways to blame it all on the white man.

That's Florida. Now let's look at just San Francisco
Versus 31 in an entire year in an entire state.
Ok, so Republican states also have gun violence .....
But why did you find it necessary to bring up gun violence? We are talking crime in general.
You cant at all compare gun violence in florida with gun violence in any california city, let alone liberal san francisco.
Californias gun laws are highly restrictive. Its very hard to buy a gun here. Its even harder to carry one. State law strictly prohibits carrying a loaded weapon in any vehicle, and CCW permits are hard to get in most cities. Used to be impossible in some.
The result is far less guns per capita and far, far less guns in the hands of people walking around on the streets.
Not completely familiar with FL gun laws but pretty sure theyre nowhere near as strict as CA.
So its expected there will be more shootings there.
Personally I like no guns, but some prefer otherwise.
While its true if criminals know theres a gun in the home thats a deterrent, that also makes some criminals bring their own gun. If the SHTF and youre carrying a gun around that makes you a threat someone might shoot you for. As there arent too many situations where Id like to be standing over someone I just killed with a gun, I wont own one any more and at this point believe that makes me safer than anyone else in this equation.
Nobody ever, anytime, has one god damn reason to shoot me.
Florida's 620,000 rental cars could no longer carry tags beginning with Y or Z or containing the word "lease," which criminals often use to target tourists for robbery or other crimes.
We are a Republican state so what say you now?
That happened 30 years ago and was a good move. Tourists were being targeted by urban feral youth.
