At first glance, I found this graphic
perplexing and even doubted its accuracy. Then, after doing some
checking, I discovered that it was mostly likely true. Colder weather
does apparently increase the number of people getting killed. So, I
decided to write the mayor's of a few large northern cities,
imploring them to consider local ordinances that would require
residents to stay inside whenever the temperatures dropped below
forty degrees. Of course, such an effort would require more
'investment' in the way of taxes to help insure people remain at home
during these period of time. There would have to be a way developed
to get individuals needed items like groceries and such, especially
during those long winter month's in places like Chicago...
I'm happy to say that my ideas have
been enthusiastically endorsed by both Mayor's DeBlaseo and Rahm Emanuel.
Other mayors didn't seem as excited, but I'm sure they will come
around when they witness a large drop in murder rates.
