However, certain demographics, such as the black population, are hugely Democratic and they have a high rate of single parent households. The gangster rap culture also plays into the ideology.

My point was that if it was a violent rime there are many possibilities that should be thought of before saying a right winger attacked her.

I appreciate your input and I can see how what I wrote would lead you in the direction you went.

I believe conservatives commit many crimes, usually white collar and less violent ones. However, they still commit crimes.

The fact is, a high number of folks in jail are black and Hispanic and these demographics register as Democrats in overwhelming numbers. There is no escaping that. However, this does not imply a cause and effect relationship just as there is no cause/effect on her being attacked and it being a right winger (though now we know she was not attacked). People were quick to jump on that, let us not forget.

I never said that other cities were not full of criminals, but we were talking about New York. The fact is, Baltimore here in my state, has more crime than New York.

Regarding the crime statistics you’ve supplied, I don’t think anyone would be particularly surprised that crime rates have risen in several cities. It’s a growing problem all over the country (as that article makes fairly clear). As for the study you linked to, I think we have to be careful and think critically when someone makes a broad statement like “Felons are most likely to vote democratic,” simply because that kind of statement leads to false conclusions being formed. In this case, are Democrats more likely to commit felonies because of their political ideology, or are lower class minorities (who are more likely to vote Democratic in the first place) simply more likely to be convicted of felonies? I’d argue it’s very clearly the latter.

I don’t think there’s anything about one’s political ideology that makes them more predisposed to commit crimes. After all, it sure seems to me that both major political parties are fairly concerned with reducing the crime statistics you linked to previously.

JOHN 3:16-17:

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

This Study demonstrates the Democratic mix of felons. The opening paragraph says it and there are other references. The nutshell is, felony disenfranchisement affects the Democratic party more than the Republican party because more Democrats are affected by felon status.

I was just pointing out that there are any number of reasons that she could be off the air and that immediately attacking the right is no more sensible as alluding to any other.

Really? Care to back that up with some actual statistics? It’s hard to take anything one says seriously when such ridiculous generalizations are being thrown around without any factual support
