Continued from here.

I think we were talking about Hell Up in Harlem and other classic urban documentaries.

All cities are liberal. This is a stupid argument. The last time a Republican was left in charge of a city they deliberately poisoned Flint's children. I wouldn't trust a Republican within 100 miles of governing a city.

If all cities are liberal than all states would be liberal. No that's the stupid argument.

Maybe I get it from you. You just said all cities are liberal. Cities are in states, so how the heck can all cities be liberal but all states arent? because you're full of crap

Take a look for yourself, man. Drill down on any area reasonably classified as a "city" and you'll see how they voted in 2016.

Classifying cities, he said all cities. Suitland is a repugnant breeding ground for crime that votes Democrat 100% time, do you classify that as a city?

A city is a legally defined entity with a structured system of governance, and which has delegated powers to oversee local legislation as well as the management of resources. Citizens of a city are responsible for electing representatives who form the local government that provides local services.

We're getting into semantics now though. City, town, unincorporated area, any way you classify it, the areas that are most violent and crime filled are liberal areas. Ergo, more criminals are liberal than conservative. Hence why Bernie wants to extend voting rights to all criminals in jail, its not out of the kindness of his heart, clearly eh doesn't have that giving rights to people who don't deserve it

Wasn't your original argument that not all cities are liberal? That's what I was addressing.

Oh I hear you gtn, and respect how you post it in a tactful, non condescending way unlike the other 2 guys on here. But words like all, none, never, always are declarative statements. Saying "all" cities are liberal is simply incorrect and just a deflection ZOnk uses to not address the real issue of high crime in highly liberal concentrated areas

DC is #1 in the nation in abortions, so the numbers are skewed when you actually factor in what constitutes a crime

Here's the issue I'm addressing - and I'm being as tactful as I possibly can here - you're deranged.

Ergo DC cannot be a city.
