You joined this board just to bestow this gem upon us? Would you like to see statistics that measure intelligence either directly or by proxy in large cities vs. rural areas? I assure you, they are not in the latter's favor.

Jennifat “? You’re still around praising the liberal hypocrisy I see. I heard you passed away?

Nobody says Minneapolis doesn't have problems. Every major city does. What does bitching about getting a legitimate parking ticket have to do with the scourge of American society that is gun violence?
If it was one, deranged person doing the shooting in one location it would make national news. But 7 souls are shot because leftist rule has completely destroyed the rule of law and it's just not newsworthy anymore. Doesn't that bother you at all?

No. absolutely not true. Look up the most educated counties in América. You will see different.

No, clearly not, because, like most lefties I enjoy living in a war zone. More chaos, please!

(See what happens when you keep going down the reductio ad absurdum rabbit hole?)

Since when does "educated" and "smart" mean the same thing? Plenty of very smart people who lack a lot of formal education.

It's observational. Look at all the idiots on college campus' protesting things they don't even really know about. Think about all the founders/CEOs of tech companies who dropped out of college. Don't be so naïve, you know what I'm talking about.

Anecdotal evidence isn't evidence.

Ok, and your opinion is just that, an opinion.
