[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fort Worth, Texas, has a Republican mayor and also saw a 27-year high in homicides in 2021, so if for some reason you think Republicans automatically cure crime, maybe think again.[/quote] This is such a bullsh*t democrat argument, because Ft. Worth has a much lower baseline of murder compared to DC. If murders rise in Ft. Worth by a little bit, the percent change will look drastic because of a smaller baseline. Meanwhile, DC can see a much larger number of murders in terms of raw numbers, but the percent change will be smaller compared to Ft. Worth specifically because the denominator for DC is so much higher. DC has way higher number of murders per capita than Ft. Worth because you actually normalized the data in a meaningful way rather than comparing a crappy stat like YoY percent change.[/quote] Cry more, truth hurts :) [/quote]
