CB,

Why is it that only blue cities have ghettos? Does liberalism cause crime and poverty and force people into racially segregated neighborhoods or are they just lucky?

As I understand it, there are no ghettos in Idaho.

Indeed. Lotsa variables. Pretty hard to just zero right in on the difference in carry laws as the explanation for the any discrepancy in crime statistics. Or changing carry laws as the solution.

Lots of variables, CB. Interesting list.

Makes no difference, I think. A victim in the countryside is far more vulnerable than one in the city because he can't call for help.

I've lived rural and city and city is far safer. A rural badass is a far greater menace than one in town.

The countryside has ghettos.
