Thompson, did you miss this?

Maybe in you're little hell hole. It i *not* universal, even though you state it as if it were. IOW, you still don't have a clue.

I believe that the reason for the decline of the overall rate of 
violence here, in the US, is because criminals are slowly coming to 
the realization that, in the US, the general population is legally and 
responsibly arming and training itself to be independent of the 
idiotic vagaries of law enforcement and, instead of kow-towing to the 
911 message, "Hide until law enforcent gets there in the next 15 
minutes or so." take matters into their own hands and neutralize the 
immediate threat and guarantee their survival.

Oh. That explains why the violent crime rate vs. time curve so exactly matches the lead in the environment curve, just with a 15 or 20 year delay.

Lose the smiley. The demographics shift (the "Aging of America") is a real thing, and AFAICT a Damn Good Thing.

Children should be seen, but not armed.

You sound like Louis XV: "Apres moi, le deluge!"

Of course, you were never young yourself.

There are some married early 20's types in my neighborhood... carpenters, electricians, plumbers.

This is a neighborhood of craftsmen.

Children, either pre-school, or in high school, nothing much in between.

And a handful of retirees, like me ;-)

Sounds like gobbledygook to me since you haven't even defined what you 
mean by the "environment curve" or the timing. 

More to the point; if you had your druthers, would you breed bees with 
no stingers?

That was lead, not lead...

Or to put it in a more understandable format, Pb, and not advance timing.

Or, at least, that's how I interpreted it.

No. It's not unusual for a bee to have a stinger.

Okay, kids without responsible parents.

And let's wait until after the gas bubble from my retinal detachment surgery finally goes away and I get the lens replaced. Then we can see about who can outshoot who.

The left that advocates murder and suicide would seem to be a movement inve nted by John Fields. None of the left-of-centre newspapers to which I've ev er subscribed to has ever talked about a left-wing political movement that advocated either.

The communists - who liked to present themselves as a left-wing political m ovement - did execute a lot of people with what strikes me as inadequate ju stification, but that matches what they really were, which is to say one mo re protection racket.

Suicide doesn't seem to have any advocates. The left wing seems to treat it as mental health problem, where universal health care might help a bit.

Quite what John Fields has managed to misunderstand to give him the impress ion that any version of left-wing politics advocates either murder or suici de escapes me. He's not good at parsing complex sentences, and doesn't seem to read much, but it might be Fox News.

Anybody stupid enough to think that any left wing political movement advocates murder or suicide has to be monumentally ill-informed. Jim might have been using irony, but he's ill-informed enough that he could also have been sincere.
