American exceptionalism


Orange Man Bad edition

"The Troubles" in Northern Ireland claimed an average of 110 lives annually.

Over the last four years Baltimore has averaged almost 330 murders per year. This in a city with a population that is only 40% of Northern Ireland's.

I don't think any American pundit or politician defended Ulster as Edenic parden spot when the killing was at flood tide.
