But crime is down and Trump is bad for caring about people being slaughtered
Violent crime has been trending down for a few years. Even before the threat of going to war against our own cities.

So identifying facts gets you mugged? I thought it might be something like appearance or being in the right place at the wrong time.

What will get you mugged is if you’re a tourist and you come into a city with your attitude….

According to lil donny, Portland is "like living in hell" so it has to be really, really bad. A NYC slum lord would know something about hell.

A reporter actually walked the streets of Baltimore and talked to the people that actually live there.

Overwhelmingly they believe the Democrats are covering up crime stats and they don’t feel safe and they welcome real solutions like what Trump is doing

Where should I have gone? Belltown, Rainier Beach, Capital Hill? :lol:
