      You’re probably joking, but…no joke…I worked briefly as a contractor for a company that aggregated data like this (lead exposure based on geographic region)…and a significant, if not alarming, number of “red” areas had high lead levels.

      I am, of course, drawing my own personal conclusions after seeing that.

      Stop circlejerking its 2024. Have a thoughtful mind. See people, not opponents.

        I’ll start seeing conservatives as people when they extend me the same courtesy.

          Yeah. Seriously. It’s 2024. Like, Republicans have thoroughly demonstrated how they feel about people outside of their in-groups and what they want to do to then. It does not benefit anyone to play ignorant to that fact.

        Alas these people want to be angry and lead has been shown to make people more violent, and less smart.

        They are stupid enough to be willing to accept what the HateTV channel says to hate.
