    As for the rest of your b.s. thread, I bet 90% of the "Republican led" cities you listed have Democrat mayors. But I wouldn't expect you to be honest.
    Mayors can't get anything done without the support of their Republican governor and President.

    Agent Zero. I am assuming you have some level of education, but here we go.

    Mayors run cities and are responsible for local policing issues. All the cities you mention have Dem/Maoist mayors.

    Congress is a federal office. Congress represent their districts on federal issues (taxes, federal programs etc.)

    Your logic is flawed, but nice try Again too much soy in your diet and too much MSNBC on your TV

    Taking Ohio as an example, why is it that Ohio’s gun violence is primarily in the largest Democrat-run city but the rest of the Republican areas are safe? We have massive gun ownership in my deep red county and no gun violence to speak of. In fact, if we get gun violence, frequently such gun violence comes from that Democrat stronghold.

    Just curious.

    I have to admit this was a poor showing even for a black custodian.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Most if not all of those cities actually do have at least one thing in common.

    Those cities are all dominated by Democrats at every level of local government, from the lowliest aldermen to the mayor. Nice try.

    The high-volume murder/crime areas tend to be located in gang infested sections of major urban areas. Predominantly controlled by Democrat Mayors. Just a fact.

    The root causes of the high crime rates can be complex. Poverty, drugs, huge % of single mothers, etc forever.


    But your effort to lay the fault of this particular issue on the GOP falls somewhere between "desperate" and just "lame".
