#3 Murder follows a Pareto distribution; a few of the worst inner city population areas account for most of the murders. Take out certain areas of L.A., Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, Philadelphia, DC, etc. and you reduce the overall murder rate of the country bigly. I'd bet these crime sanctuaries have something in common--Donk mayoralty rule.

#8 About 20 years ago, a University of Houston demographics professor published a paper that showed that if you discounted the excess illegal alien population in Texas, the crime rate more resembled the rate in Kansas or the Dakotas.
What happened? Persona non grata, he essentially became a non person, ended up at a community college.
