Democrats have no issue with people killing other people. Both born and unborn.

We all know that. As a general rule, democrats like to be around people, and as a general rule, republicans don't like to be around people they don't know. Or even people they do know.

Cities, which tend to be run by democrats because they like being around lots of people, have features like more libraries, more shopping, more job opportunities, more live theater, more live music, more museums, and yes, more crime. Those are all features of big cities.

Rural areas, which tend to be run and populated by republicans because they don't like to be around lots of people, as a general rule, have fewer libraries, less shopping, fewer job opportunities, fewer live theater venues, less live music, fewer museums, and less crime.

There. Are we done now continuously pointing out that large cities are run by democrats in general? One could certainly make the case that our museums and hospitals and libraries are mostly in cities run by democrats.

Other side of the same coin.
So people like being around people is the criteria for being a Democrat these days Sure explains why Prisons are so over crowded

New York City had 2500 murders in 1990, they are probable in 400's this year. Clearly this is incorrect.

Actually it’s not that I don’t like to be around people. I don’t like to be around low class violent people.

So, would you say that living in a nice high-rise downtown with a doorman and other security would be a lifestyle you would seek?

You can CERTAINLY find that in any large city. And it's attractive, in general, to democrats to live that way. With a walkable downtown.

There are mega cities in the world that have all of the things you mentioned but with very low crime.

So, lots of crime doesn’t necessarily come with the territory, like you’re implying.

You cannot prove a damn thing you just said. But prove me wrong.

What part of what I said isn't obvious to you, on the face of it?

Drive out in rural areas, you see Trump stuff. And the mayors are republican. And the people are republican. And the population is very spread out.

Drive through densely populated big cities, and the mayors are democrat, and you see liberal slogans.

What part of those facts have you not noticed, just by living in this country?
