Quote from phenomena:



Anyhow, are you trying to suggest that this should have any sort of influence on our policy on ILLEGAL immigration?

OMG, immigration is illegal?? When did that happen?

Quote from tmarket:

You don't compare apples to oranges. This is comparing cities over 500,000 in population.
The number one safest city on your list of cities over 75,000, Sugar Land, Texas, is also only about 200 miles from the border with Mexico. The second safest city on your list, Yuma, AZ, is only about 20 miles from the border. So your list proves the point.
