He failed to point out that the high crime in red states is concentrated in democrat run cities within those states.
And there is ignorance of the fact, that a statewide crime rate blunts the impact of higher crime rates of big cities within those states.
Does Pennsylvania have a higher crime rate than Tennessee or Missouri? I don’t know the answer to that. But you can’t realistically discuss without noting differences between crime in Philadelphia vs. Danville, Memphis vs. Shelbyville, St. Louis vs. Joplin, etc. etc.
High crime in red states is concentrated in Democrat run cities in EVERY state.
I’ve seen statistics that, if you take away young black male crime, the USA is about the safest country in the entire world. Most crime in Democrat run cities is by young black males.
