Now that we've renamed the gulf of Mexico, does "America" now include

which cities you included in your amazing fact).

Reading the paper? All of our local newspapers (which actually print
the news) are down a few pages of tiny print. I suspect you haven't
seen a printed newspaper in the last few years. Also, the prices are
quite high. For example:
<https://newsrates.com/product/the-mercury-news/>
Would you believe a 70% discount? The only reason I know this is
because I asked a news junkie friend to save for me some old
newspapers for starting the fire in my wood burner. I get my news
online.

I went through various lists of crime statistics in the US. None of
them list Youngstown, Ohio. This is the best I could find:
<https://realestate.usnews.com/places/ohio/youngstown/crime>
"The metropolitan area's violent crime rate was higher than the
national rate in 2022. Its rate of property crime was higher than the
national rate."

Looks like the downtown Youngstown area has a crime problem, while the
suburbs are better.

In other words, the Youngstown crime rate is below the USA average (or
median) but not even close to being "one of the most dangerous cities
in America".

For many, it is. Just look at how comfortable the two most willfully

Some large number of people agree with that sentiment.Unfortunately some of them meander to the polls on election day and randomly mark ballots. These are the people who actually decide elections in our sharply divided societies now.-- Andrew Muziam@yellowjersey.orgOpen every day since 1 April, 1971
