['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2023-07-22  

Small town "values” include (checks notes) these supposed “values”:

Higher rates of gun deaths than urban areas

than urban areas Higher suicide rates than urban areas

than urban areas Higher incidence of domestic / spousal abuse than urban areas

than urban areas Higher rates of child abuse

Higher rates of LGBTQ discrimination

Higher rates of drunk driving

Higher rate of auto crash deaths (probably due to the bullet above)

(probably due to the bullet above) Higher rates of teenage alcohol use

Higher rates of m ethamphetamine addiction, overdoses and death

Higher rates of cigarette smokers

Higher rates of obesity (isn’t gluttony supposed to be a sin?

(isn’t gluttony supposed to be a sin? Higher rates of unintended teen pregnancy

I've got the "receipts" on all these facts if you want links, or you can Google them yourselves.

Urban and suburban areas have issues too, but let’s not pretend small towns are utopias.
