Demographics 101. Move Memphis to Maine, New Hampshire, or Vermont and watch the results flip.

Does the Daily Mail post articles that list the highest rates of murder, rape and other violent crimes that happen in the towns and cities of Britain?

Oh come on, there is always a double digit body count from Chicago every, that's every, weekend. Don't see them listed anywhere.

We can Fix that...Move the Illegals to Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont.
That way they don't miss all the fun the other Leftist States are going through.
We can't have any Leftists missing out on what they CAUSED!

We all know why that is, but it's politically incorrect to say it out loud.

BS, Memphis a sewer but the rest of Tennessee is fine, there is no way Memphis is worse than Chicago, Philly or any of other of the D'Rat hellholes.

What's going on in Alaska? Opioid-related organized crime?

Maine, New Hampshire & Vermont are concealed carry states. There also may be a certain demographic characteristic involved as well....

#7 is correct. Crime in the black community is an appalling tragedy. Three year olds shot dead while caught in the gangsta’s crossfire, armed robbery and murder every day. Then we get the useless candlelight vigils, the teddy bears left at the crime site and all the moaning about “stop the violence “. Won’t happen until the black community throws off the welfare shackles that the left has trained them to accept. It’s up to them. Whitey can’t solve this.

Alaska is sort of a last frontier. People running from the law can easily hide out until they get the urge to murder again.

FBI data? Why would anyone believe this after what they have been up to?

Where do they get their info? From Joe Biden's basement? Where are the stats on NY, PA, DC and CA?

It is per capita, rather than statewide totals Alaska and NM are low population states, so just a few crimes make a big statistical difference. Take Anchorage Albuquerque and Memphis out of the equation and the statistics would look pretty good for those states. Illinois etc have big enough statewide populations to make up for their third-world big city hellholes.

#1 nailed it. Memphis is a Democrap shitehole. Nashangeles is getting worse, but nowhere near what Memphis has. The Usual Suspects drive that disgusting problem.

FBI Data? Tainted due to considerable political manipulation.
Probably ignored the states of New York, New Jersey and Illinois.

I'll be attending a firearms and other special skills training course just west of Memphis this weekend. The group is staying in a small town well out of tge Memphis metro area because it really isn't smart to go to Memphis, even though I'll be armed.
Not looking for trouble.
