There is one area here where I sort of agree with od: the solidly red state of Florida is plagued with crime and is not as safe as most other states. So when he talks about crime in other places, it’s what he’s apparently seeing all around him. On the other hand, of the safest states in the country, four of the top five are the blue liberal states of Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts (all in New England). And simply going by the lowest ‘crime rate’ here is the AI overview:
"The states with consistently low crime rates, according to recent rankings, include New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, and Idaho. Other states that often appear in the top rankings for safety and low crime include Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Utah.”
All six of the New England states consistently rank at the top of the charts for the lowest crime rates in the country. Pretty telling, isn’t it! These blue, liberal, progressive states have a better quality of life and fewer crimes than the red states. But the right continues to attempt to persuade people that it’s the liberals and progressives who are responsible for the high crime rates that they see taking place around them, but these are states that are run by the right-wing conservatives themselves...and they have fooled a lot of their constituents in those red states into believing them that it's the liberals’ fault.
