So, you don't think there is a possible correlation between the # of officers and crime?
"In 2008, when Flint had 265 sworn officers on their police force, there were 35 murders and 91 rapes in this city," Biden said. "In 2010, when Flint had only 144 police officers, the murder rate climbed to 65 and rapes--just to pick two categories--climbed to 229. In 2011, you now only have 125 shields. God only knows what the numbers will be this year for Flint if we don't rectify it."

You realize Michigan has pretty much the most open gun control laws outside of Texas?
So much for that.
And its Flint, they can't afford sidearms anyhow. |

Hmm, imagine how much more violent crime ther would be in those states if
law abiding citizens weren't carrying. 
A good part of the Texas rate increase is due to the influx of illegals,
while the violent crime rate in Michigan has dropped.
In a list of "The Top Most Dangerous States", Texas and Michigan didn't
even make the top 15 in 2010.
MICHIGAN and Alaska showed the biggest improvement. |

When did we start talking about entire states? Oh, we weren't. Twit.
Let me leave this right here:

Flint seriously makes Detroit look like a nice place too.

No none whatsoever Bryan. I believe it's more to do with the economy and people losing their jobs than how many friggin coPs got hired in the city.
Mr murderer.... Oh I think I'll kill Sally Joe today cuz there's no coPs around roflmao come on!!
Oh the boys in the hood just decided to rape that girl in the abandoned warehouse all because there was only 144 coPs on duty
Let's get real. This is pure bull#^&#^&#^&#^& meant to incite the people to lobby their reps to pass a ridiculous bill.
