We pick them off us and 3 pets fur and put them in a vial of alcohol. Too many so early. I get at least 3 on me/day.

Scientific quantification. We have a vial every year to compare. Not walking in woods, just driveway 30' to house or take trash out. Mow once/week.

Ticks are absolutely horrible this year, I've pulled numerous off both children and myself and we haven't even been deep into the woods, just on walking trails and in parks.

Yes. In the past 10 years, I have maybe found two ticks on me. In the past two weeks, I have had found two. We are always outside with the grands. Having Alpha Gal sucks (no pun intended), I don't need for it to get worse.

Not more than usual. Pro-tip, get Frontline (or equivalent) for your indoor+outdoor pets. It helps keep ticks out of your house.

Progressives, which make up the bulk of the city council, have no idea as to how to reduce crime. They will try and "ride out" this murder of the Stephens student and go back to Ignore, Avoid, Delay with their task forces and failed social programs.

You're joking, right?

The alumni are the ones who donate large sums for things like new stadiums. They are the ones who create this college culture of downtown bars by influencing University leadership and the Alumni Associations. A bunch of UM grads work in state government. Ban them, problem solved.

They are clueless. They will never hold the parents responsible because it will go against their identity politics. Start holding the parents accountable. Or at least get these kids to families who see the as blessings and not as income. Stop protecting horrible parents. Use common sense.

Start by banning taxpayer funded state employees from attending college athletic events at UM. Ban those collegiate license plates that DOR offers for a donation to the University. Ban companies from hiring UM graduates. Start stalking and doxxing state employees who are UM grads. Problem solved.
