I'm too lazy, so I just checked detroit, since 1912 14 republicans, 11 democrats, perhaps it's the republicans fault and people are just punishing them voting democrat?
Or perhaps the power alternates and shift throught time and everybody fault and not just the last guy in office?
Who knows, the easiest thing is obviously to say it your fault not mine!

Here we have a story that takes some FBI crime statistics and shows the most dangerous U.S. cities are actually heavy Democrat pockets !!
Somebody needs to get to the bottom of the root causes of high crime in America and why it happens in certain areas and not others.
I bet these Democrat cities are also heavy with the regulations.
They're also heavy with the crime-culture and nobody seems to be able to solve the problems even though the wars on crime have been in progress for decades.
Somebody must be benefiting from all this chaos.
What are the *REAL* reasons for "failure & flop" governments ?
Why are "Gun Control" measures "failing & flopping" so badly ?

Seattle's 90% Democratic and it's way safer than the cities on the list. And what about places like Vermont?
Most big cities suck because they're big cities, and have high crime because there's lots of poor people and lots of minorities.

And Republicans run most or the poorest and uneducated states... so where exactly does that leave us, eh? Sucks when your propaganda comes back to bite you in the buttocks, doesn't it?
