Those are good for a laugh. Voting for McCain does not make state "Red."
More importantly the way you're throwing up straw men.
You made a bullshit comment calling people racists and I called you out for it. I said nothing about over all crime. But I look forward to when the 2015 data is released after Baltimore and St. Louis going to hell.
I also enjoy following the trails of trash from the corner store to the section 8 houses where black people from Chicago now live. We did not have this problem around my town before the section 8s popped up everywhere.
I will also give credit where its due, the black family from Chicago that lives behind me are really trying. They keep their yards mowed and clean.
