I’ve been through Pittsburgh several times on a train, delivered vehicles there, and spent a day or two there. One of the most beautiful skylines in the USA.

I’ll stipulate that some of my pre-revolutionary W. Pa. ancestors participated in the Whisky Rebellion.

YMMV.

Paris of Appalachia? Then my place is the Riviera of the Sierra.

Where are you going to find conservatives, these days, who want to govern big urban areas ?

You’d have to fight every-ism and-phobia in the book, and bureaucratic nerds, when you could be making money without the hassle.

Big cities are destined to die a horrible death.

Go rural. The more remote the locale, the better.

He left out the third major hate crime, probably because it was committed by a black man killing and injuring whites. https://murderpedia.org/male.T/t/taylor-ronald.htm Both this case and the Baumhammer case were outside the city limits, but that is RedState for you.

What Pontiac and his Indians could not do to Ft Pitt and Ft Detroit in 1764 has been done by today’s DEMOCRATS.

Pittsburgh calls itself the Paris of the Appalachians?

That simultaneously is baffling and explains a lot of things.

Someday they will realize that disparity is highly influenced by genetics. It's the same reason Negroes are disproportionately represented in the NBA, and why Ashkenazi Jews are disproportionately represented in Math and Physics.

I left Pittsburgh five years ago after living there my entire life. I don’t miss it.

Every time I visit, I find something else to dislike.

This article seems a bit woke for a red state article. Or perhaps it’s just far too progressive in the traditional sense. People have to help themselves, quit defiling their own natures and reject all the free stuff and they will be fine.
