Do the parents show up at parent/teacher conferences carrying weapons too?

"Over the last year, Iowa's violent crime rate ticked up by 13.9%, more than double the national increase. The increase in violence was led by homicide. There were 111 murders committed in Iowa in 2020, an 85% increase from the 60 murders reported in the state in 2019."

Chris Hayes/MSNBC is covering the rise in crime in Red states compared to Blue states. OK is at 9% while CA is 6% and NY almost 5%. Of course the GQP states do not acknowledge this and lie about it instead. My, my, what a surprise.
