” Murder is a consequence of the disposition of the people.”

I agree, but that disposition is tied to our freedom. European and Asian cities have their poverty and their underworlds, but since everyone is servile by nature very little of that results in violent crime.

Americans are brought up to by fighters. That makes us victors in war and in business, but also means our failed cities are battlefields.

Indeed, there are mass shootings every weekend and sometimes during the week in Chicago.
No one claims it’s an American thing.
Meanwhile, more people are killed daily by Fentanyl nationwide than black on Black mass killings.
