Dangerous conditions
It definitely is The joy of Fox NewsSan Francisco ranks 20th in the new rankings for US News & World Report America’s “most dangerous” city. But San Francisco is one big reason outlier. It’s in blue.
Of the 25 most dangerous cities, 19 are in the states where Trump won last year’s presidential election. And 15 was states, and Trump won by more than 10 percent points. In other words, it’s a straight red state. In all 25 cities, Trump won the state last year with an average of 9.4 percentage points.

Vietnam War at 50
It is the 50th anniversary of Saigon’s Autumn 50th anniversary, known in Vietnam as the Unified One, marking the end of the Vietnam War. New polls show that war is controversial, but despite the young Americans of the time leading the anti-war movement, young Americans today support war more than those who experienced it and those who soon after.
44% of Americans believe the Vietnam War is unfair, while 29% say it was justified. Opinion survey From Emerson College on Nexstar Media. This is a higher “unjustified” number than other major US wars since World War II. It is also just one of two wars that are wars in Afghanistan.
However, Americans ages 18-29 are split over whether the US should participate in the Vietnam War, with 48% saying it’s the right thing to do and 52% saying the US should stay.
Generally, polls suggest that the older Americans are, the more likely they are to say the US should stay. Only a third of the 50-59 years old and 60-69 years old said they had participated in the war. And the lowest “right” numbers come from Americans over the age of 70.
That final data point is the Vietnam War draft after considering one important event. Spanning seven lottery drawings, the army drafted the born Americans 1944 and 1956. This means that a significant portion of the 70+ age group in the poll was considered in the draft. Considering that the youngest American in the last lottery era is now 68, even a part of the 60-69-year-old group would have been considered.
The dividing of the US role in the war today may have something to do with them not having that much interest in what happened, or simply knowing much about it.
