It's becoming very evident that we really are two separate countries. The red country and the blue country. The red state and the blue state. The red city and the blue city. The red neighborhood and the blue neighborhood. The red people and the blue people.

Cold weather really slows them down. Less than one per day.

No, you are simply recognizing the situation for what it is, and you are spot on!

Don't want to appear cynical, but I wouldn't trust a lot of the numbers coming out of police departments.
