Would the crime prevention tactics that New York has work in Chicago?
Of late,there's been someone shot on a daily basis,something that you'd normally hear about during the summer,not in the colder months. Is there a link to what you wrote about the blue and red?

Who cares? Inner cities are the realm of democrats mostly. Did you know that the average number of murders in blue counties in the US is 13.2 per 100,000? The average number of murders in red counties is 2.1 per 100,000. The real question is why are democrats more than 6 times as likely to be murderers as conservatives? Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the most recent Presidential election: Population of counties won: by Gore, 127 million; by Bush, 143 million; Square miles of land won: by Gore, 580,000; by Bush, 2,427,000; States won: by Gore, 19; by Bush, 29; Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won: by Gore, 13.2; by Bush, 2.1. Professor Olson adds, "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was (mostly) the land owned by the tax-paying citizens of this great country. Gore's territory encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off government welfare.." Olson believes the U.S. is now somewhere between the "apathy" and the "complacency" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy; with some 40 percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.
