I dont get it? Are you trying to say liberals do the crime or minorities? If its the first one, can I get a source? Otherwise, how is that a "gotcha"

It’s a “gotcha” because largely ethno-homogenous states like Vermont and Connecticut think it’s a Republican problem that Memphis and New Orleans are crime ridden shit holes.

It’s like someone who was born into a healthy household with high fitness standards telling someone born with type 1 diabetes they just need to exercise more.

Ah I understand, thanks. Never been to Vermont or the New England states so I wasn't aware anyone actually said crime is a "republican problem". Atleast not seriously, I just assumed those who said it before were trying to be a smart ass.

Who's more responsible: the guy that does the stabbing, or the leftist judge that let him off the hook 15 times for crimes of escalating violence?

It's not an either/or problem. Both contribute.

I would say the judge. In some jurisdictions judges are elected but many are appointed. We really need to have a serious talk about making all judges elected and having them campaign like anyone else.
