  3. Would you post an expanded list of similar sized cities, racial compositions and murder rates?

    In the southern states there is a larger black presence in rural areas. Do you have statistics or other information on murder rate correlations to blackness in rural areas?

  6. Wow, Mobile is now 57% percent black? What a crying shame. My dad was born and raised in Mobile (family settled there in late 183os). It was a nice city when I’d go to there visit my grandma and other relatives in the ’50s and ’60s. Most of the ones still alive moved to Baldwin county. I see that it’s 85% white and thriving.
