The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The Hill anticipated LM amd published this:

Some are safer than others, of course, and a new study from SmartAsset tried to determine which of the country’s major cities is the safest...

...Landing on top of the list is a city on the West Coast: San Jose, California. Finishing top 10 in every metric that SmartAsset studied, San Jose had the third fewest violent crimes in the country relative to its population, and the fifth fewest property crimes.

Five hours south of San Jose was the second safest city in the country, Los Angeles, which stacked up similarly in terms of all crime metrics and actually had a significantly lower vehicular mortality rate (in terms of traffic deaths per 100,000) compared to San Jose.

Look at CA and NY!

San Jose, CA
Los Angeles, CA

Fort Worth, TX
Omaha, NE
Virginia Beach, VA
Las Vegas, NV
Arlington, TX
El Paso, TX
Charlotte, NC
Raleigh, NC
Long Beach, CA
Miami, FL
San Diego, CA
Phoenix, AZ
Sacramento, CA
Atlanta, GA
Oklahoma City, OK
Dallas, TX
Boston, MA
Tucson, AZ
Mesa, AZ
Seattle, WA
Tulsa, OK
Houston, TX
New York, NY

On the other end of the spectrum, Memphis, Tennessee, was listed as the most unsafe large city in the country. Albuquerque was listed just ahead of Memphis as the second most unsafe city, and Detroit was ranked as the third most unsafe city.

Trump is sending the NG to all those CA cities plus NY!
