In fact, violent crime in recent years has generally been increasing more quickly in jurisdictions without reform-minded prosecutors. Murder rates have been rising fastest in some Republican states led by tough-on-crime politicians.

Now, which States and do those states (FL? TX? OK?) have large metro areas (Miami? Houston? DFW? Tulsa?) that are driving those "fastest rising" murder rates George? Please, do tell us?

Unfortunately, so many Americans, of both political persuasions have no clue what critical thinking is and take blanket statements as the truth.

The desert is a true treasure for him who seeks refuge from men and the evil of men.
In it is contentment
In it is death and all you seek
