Are sKerry's supporters all criminals or... are all criminals sKerry's supporters? This is the question! Please help... them (if you must)!!!

I tihink your question is, Are crime rates lower in counties that voted for Bush verses counties that voted for Kerry.

The problem with this is that in some cases it may be true, but in some counties Bush won by small margins so the county appears red.

I would be interesting for someone to do a study on the similarities between the criminal mind, and the leftist fringe liberal mind.

I just know DO NOT GO TO SAN ANTONIO TEXAS! We have been robbed there TWICE. We will never go back. The police are aware and they do not care. A caller to Houston talk radio last week said he stopped in San Antonio last weekend and his truck was robbed of $10K worth of equipment. And the thieves were so slick, they didn't damage the truck. So it appears that it wasn't locked - it was. So his insurance company is denying his claim. Insurance is such an illegal scheme.
