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.

Also nope. You can look at a broad variety of crimes here, but they're all generally down in 2023 - and much lower than in the past. If Seattle is setting multi-decade highs in total crime as well as murder, that's not something they have in San Francisco (or New York, which also experienced broad drops in crime):

Let's just...leave this here:
msn.com - Lebron james concerned by squatters near his california home report

California has a squatting problem and now Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is growing "concerned" about alleged squatters who have moved in to a $4.3-million mansion near his home.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, several states updated their rules to allow renters more leniency if they were unable to make their monthly payments. However, in states like California and Washington, this has given rise to unforeseen problems in which squatters stay on property they don't own permanently, and the homeowners lose thousands of dollars in the process.


Again, dumb laws (with obvious forseen complications) are now coming home to roost for LeBron.

he reason that Goofy tends to cite murder stats is because he wants to have a narrow snarkfest on terms he thinks he can win with. He's not interested in an actual debate; his schtick is sarcasm and drive-by shootings (post once or twice, then drive away). I happen to hold you in the highest esteem; please don't read anything into whatever I tell him. He wants to play things the way he does and thus Game Theory dictates I respond in a certain way :).
