Re: Houston: Fatal shooting at Worthing High School
I can almost guarantee that not one person there was carrying a weapon legally. Probably half were underage and the other half were felons.RPB wrote:I hope "Mystery man" defending the crowd wasn't a CHL carrying at a school sporting event ....
It wasn't a school event. It was an informal pickup game.

Re: Houston: Fatal shooting at Worthing High School
If I hadn't slept through statistics class I could show how rates of violent crime correlate with populations density and poverty. In other words, when poor people are crammed into neighborhoods, more crime occurs. Most of it is related to drug dealing and other gang activities.chasfm11 wrote:Speaking of statistics, it would be interesting to see shooting statistics in GFZ versus the surrounding areas.
I ran the statistics engine multiple times and was surprised that:
NYC is safer than Houston
LA is only slightly worse than Houston
New York is a special case. Mayor Giuliani practically abolished the fourth amendment there, allowing police to search people on a hunch. The hunches are usually right.
