Can't you do that for any epsilon? (i.e. for every e > 0 there exists a area of the United States such that 90% of the crime is in an area < e)
reply
You can make it zero too if going by this argument. Count up the individual points at which crimes were committed. The area adds up to zero since the number of crimes is finite.

Not popular.

We know exactly where the majority of crime is in the US, you are correct, down to the neighborhood.

Now… let’s say you were to call the national guard in to safeguard those areas, how do you think that would go over by those cities governors and reaction media? I guess the answer depends on the year.

This comment really confirms the "everyone is twelve years old now" theory.

"If there's crime, let's send in the army!" Of course you'd suggest that, you're twelve.

I don’t remember suggesting that. But, go on with your strawman, you are doing great.

Ah yes. Good point.

Someone uses a scenario as reductio ad absurdum, you can yell “THEYRE ONLY 12” and claim it was an endorsed suggestion.

I mean it, you’re doing great. Keep digging.

Tim Walz and Jacob Frey are both on record saying they'd love to have federal help with reducing violent crime.

That is not Donald Trump's / Stephen Miller's objective in Minnesota, nor is it the outcome.
