No, I'm engaging in data analysis. We have a lower crime rate than Guatemala, but that's not a useful data point. So yes we have a lower crime rate than massive inner city areas in the south. What we're going to compare ourselves against is pretty important, so the fact that we have the highest violent crime rate in New England is quite important.

I can't engage with you in good faith when you're comparing an idyllic sleepy state in America with Guatemala. And what is this contorted statistic about violent crime you keep repeating?

I have a feeling that you have an agenda.

I absolutely have an agenda. As a former high school math teacher it's mathematics....
