I’ll make a point about hot weather. During the Feb 2010 snow blizzard period in DC...there ended up being around thirty inches of snow on the ground locally. It was amazing...shootings and crime drop immediately. For roughly two to three weeks...no murders in DC, and robberies drop like a rock. Snow as it thawed out, and the snow left....things went back to normal.

The way of weather implications is that a crowd of folks who have a urban living situation....will typically have limited AC. They end up sitting out on the porch or standing out on the street....chatting with someone else. A little bit of pot...a tiny bit of PCP...and you start to get bold in your actions and not care much about the results of your actions.

There are more white people living that way than there are black people but the violent crime profiles are very much different..

Are you saying that more Global Warming can reduce robberies and murders? What about rapes?
