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.

American carnage is everywhere. Trumpers here keep saying so.

Detroit is close to recording its fewest number of yearly homicides in nearly 60 years, according to a gun violence reduction partnership among city, state and county officials who announced the data on Monday.

As of Nov. 30, the city had recorded 228 homicides this year, an 18% drop compared to the 276 homicides during the same time last year. In 2018, Detroit recorded 261 homicides, the city's fewest since 1966, a year prior to the Detroit riot in 1967.


Compared to this time last year:

Total nonfatal shootings in Detroit are down 13%.

Carjackings in Detroit are down 36%.

Oh, the horror.
