Two Daytona Beach Shores city commissioners have resigned as the latest in a wave of local elected officials leaving before Jan. 1, when they face more stringent financial disclosure requirements.
Mel Lindauer, a Shores commissioner since 2016, told The News-Journal on Wednesday the new requirement − submitting what’s known as Form 6 − is “totally invasive” and serves no purpose.
Commissioner Richard Bryan, who has also served since 2016, said in his Dec. 21 resignation letter that he had another priority but added the Form 6 issue “affected the timing” of his decision.
…
Many state officials already file a Form 6, including the governor and Cabinet, legislators, county council members and sheriffs. The forms require disclosure of the filer’s net worth and holdings valued at more than $1,000, including bank accounts, stocks, retirement accounts, salary and dividends.
Dumbest motherfucker ever. Learn to read data asshat.
Jesus Christ no way you’re this stupid. I’ll spoonfeed it to you like you’re five I guess:
WOW, look at that, they ALL have higher rates than the ENTIRETY of mainland Europe, with Denmark, Sweden, and Finland having at least 2x the amount of most western countries and 5-10x the amount of most eastern countries.
Compared to the other European single market countries (not micronations) which have data, Sweden & Denmark is the same as or worse than 18 (86%) of them, Finland is the same as or worse than 14 (67%) of them, with only Norway not being way higher than most at 8 (38%). Almost as if it proves my generalization to be accurate! Unless you for some reason misinterpreted it as “ALL Nordic countries have higher of EVERY CRIME than EVERY SINGLE COUNTRY EVER under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES”, in which case that’s on your own stupidity, not anything wrong with my comment. For specifically robbery it’s clearly less clear-cut, but Sweden is still clearly much worse with it than ALL of Europe except for Spain, Portugal, and Belgium/Luxembourg, and Finland has worse rates than 14 (61%) of the other single market countries with data (again, other than micronations):
Pretty much the same thing applies to motor theft (although I find that less relevant).
Oh and just in case you suddenly don’t like maps, or you just really hate Eurostat for some reason, here’s a different source from 2016 which will of course be different from 2023 statistics, but it’s still generally pretty accurate to modern statistics like the ones already discussed. Denmark and Sweden are LITERALLY the two highest, with Norway and Finland being 5th and 6th. I don’t generally pile on Iceland since they’re kind of weird and complete outliers in a lot of ways compared to the rest of Europe, but just in case you care they’re 13th here which is still worse than half even when you take out all the unrelated countries. And here’s another funny graph for burgalaries from 2019, Denmark is the highest by a large margin and Sweden is 3rd.
Like I get that you can’t handle being wrong, but like God damn you’re literally denying reality. I have to present you this shit like you’re a middle schooler for you to understand because apparently you’re too braindead to process basic statistics. Go whine to someone else, better yet don’t turn your lack of basic brain functioning into other peoples’ problem.
