That was brilliant.

You know.... It's too bad that the good conservatives don't have the stomach to stay in politics, I can't say that I blame them, but it really is just a shame for us.

Damn! He's bang on. What's really sad is that Memphis could be substituted for Detroit and it would still be accurate.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Urban decay. Minneapolis is on its way to becoming the next city to go down the crapper.

This guy was on a local radio show today.  I didn't catch who he was, but apparently he keeps track of goings-on in Memphis.  His blog makes for an interesting read.

For some time now, (a couple of years), I've been blogging about the problem of repeat offenders. I'd rather be doing something else, but if I don't get this information and expose it, who will? Nobody who has access to the data has stepped up. As a matter of fact, there have been some who have thrown stumbling blocks in my way. Even so, I persevere.

How long will we tolerate urban terrorists among us? A man was arrested last week for stabbing a woman in the face with a fork, while he was robbing her at a retirement home. He had been arrested over 30 times. This is not an uncommon occurrence. It is fairly common knowledge that we have too many repeat offenders, but did you know that we have over 52,000 people who have been arrested between 6 and 15 times? Over the past 25 years, we have arrested more people than the entire population of Tulsa, OK, or Cincinnati, OH, or Honolulu, HI, and many other cities.

Memphis and Detroit are neck-and-neck in Crappiest Cities ranking.
