Re: Milwaukee Mayor suffering from heat stroke

Jib points out what a commenter also tried to say at my place: that the Mayor was talking about a correlation that some frou-frou sociologist with a huge grant from the government and not much to do with it came up with between heat and violence.

It's not about how hot it got--it is about a complete disrespect for the laws in that city.

And who can blame them?

Three words: Mike McGee Jackson.

With "city leaders" like that, I'm not that surprised that Milwaukee is a mecca for violence.

Non-causational correlations mean absolutely nothing. It's disgusting that the mayor is going to use that kind of BC to try to explain away the violence.

And until something changes, I'm going to stay far, far away from Milwaukee.
