Watching conservatives claim NYC is dangerous on the birdsite reminds me of a chat I had in Dublin last summer. A couple next to me at a restaurant was visiting from Nashville. They asked of all the places I've lived, what I liked most. I said NYC. He said he'd be frightened to visit because of their tight gun laws, but he felt safe in Nashville. I looked it up: In 2020, Nashville had 607 violent crimes/100k people, and NYC had 256. People need to turn off FOX News!
