More Red State Moralist Degenerates (worse street list)

The most dangerous areas of the country for pedestrian deaths are in the red states. My question is how can these self righteous PIGS of the conservative republican right wing lecture the good and honorable people in the blue states about anything (especially morals) when their own areas, when examined, are the most *ucked up I have ever seen!

The worst cities in America for pedestrian deaths are:
* Orlando, Fla.
* Tampa, Fla.
* West Palm Beach, Fla.
* Miami-Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
* Memphis, Tenn.
* Atlanta
* Greensboro, N.C.
* Jacksonville, Fla.
* Phoenix
* Houston

1. Why does absolutely everything need to be broken down

into RED STATE vs. BLUE STATE?

and people, get over the "state" part of it please. Red mindset vs. blue is much better.

2. That's a good way to tell how "moral" a city is.

Serious. I hadn't thought of it before. Whether or not you yield to pedestrians says a lot about your character.

3. I have a spreadsheet....

...that I am working on that outlines the statistical difference between the red states and blue states in just about every social and fiscal category that I could think of. The results will really surprise you. The red states are collectively, some messed up areas. I know dems and liberals that live in these areas will not like it (the results) but is a eye opener anyway.

I will post the sheet after I am done properly sourcing it. (you know how this crowd is here on DU --- better have the ducks in a row).

4. Now this is silliness taken to the extreme.....

Direct correlation between pedestrian deaths and "morals". Yep, makes sense to me. :eyes:

Could there probably be a stronger correlation between pedestrian deaths and the age of drivers/pedestrians? Hmmmm....

5. Maybe if the moralists turned down the hate radio while driving?

The streets would be safer? To bad there is not a stat showing this (LOL!)... can you imagine? Hannity, Falwell and Limbaugh responsible for pedestrian deaths in the red states?

6. What is a "pedestrian" death?

I had always heard that Balto and Detroit are the higher ups on the list of murder?

I as this genuinely, not to be contrarian. :)
