Had no power for nearly 20 hours between the 23rd and 24th.

I bought a generator yesterday morning and only got about 3 hours of use out of it. Lol

Oh well. I've got it just in case of another outage. I know I can go a few days easy during the summer with no power but in these temperatures it's dangerous.

I feel bad for that reddit care resources. I feel like it is used more for trolling users. I know I get spammed with it when I make a hot take on Reddit.

If we focus on crime rate only would you invest more resources to stop that 1 crime or would you invest the resources to stop the 1000 crimes?

Since you like to provide articles with a pay wall I'll provide this as a reference instead.

The link I provided goes into detail of how rates can be inflated due to areas like retail shops being as areas with increased violence as well as parks.

Rates can be misleading when you got 1 crime happening in a town of 100 versus 1000 crimes happening in a city with 1 million people.

Especially since even my link only breaks it down to county. There could be literally a 100k in one of these counties where 99% of the town is completely fine but half of all the crime happens in that county could be happening in a small section of town.

You do know your risk of being shot goes up based more on where you live.

What sort of group do you hang out with? That will bump up the risk.

What sort of activities do you partake in? That will shoot it up even higher.

Do you have beef with some sort of dude from another group?

Louisiana likely is tilted due to New Orleans. Cities tend to be just hot boxes with pockets of high violence. That violence tends to come from a very small subset of individuals within segments of some communities. If you wanted to be effective against violent crime rates you wouldn't be looking at holistic numbers across a whole state but be targeting these individuals who are the source of a lot of this violence.

Well I don't see how talking about sex in anything but a sex education class should ever be a thing.

Well, smart parents should be cognizant of what their kids are consuming and not just through the education system. Again, this isn't something the state should be responsible for.

Yeah ok. Kids go through puberty around 11-14. That's more or less middle school. If it's that important to teach your kids this kind of information then as a parent you have all the right to. It's just you can't be relying on the state to do it for you through public education.

Then there's nothing to worry about. Just like how we don't need additional laws that stop discrimination against sex and gender since there is already laws on the book for that.

I don't see a problem with some of this.

I find it odd to teach elementary grade kids about sexual orientation and genders. Those kids are being taught basic math. Really feel like a lot of that is better for when kids are going through puberty.

I don't agree that same sex couples can't adopt children. Even if you find it morally wrong it's still better than leaving kids in the foster care system.
