Every kind of sickening human behavior manifests in big cities: incest of five year old girls, animal cruelty, child cruelty, misogyny, rape, murder, sex trafficking, entrenched poverty, illiteracy, drugs, shoplifting, burglaries, arson and every kind of aberrant human behavior!

Today, Phoenix, Arizona, a big city, suffers 57,000 cars stolen annually. (Source: Department of Motor Vehicles, AZ) Its schools suffer violence from the sixth grade onward. Los Angeles finds itself picking up millions of pounds of trash left out in the streets by anyone with a car and a bag. Schools suffer over 100 languages and less than 50 percent graduation rates from high schools. It's so bad, police won't patrol in the 20,000 members of the "18th Street Gang."

As with the MS-13 gangs, now operating in 30 states with over 20,000 members, they distribute drugs and make an estimated 900,000 U.S. teenagers drug dealers. Most follow a life of crime until arrested or killed.

AN AVERAGE OF 30,000 AMERICANS COMMIT SUICIDE ANNUALLY

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimated 52,447 deliberate and 23,237 accidental non-fatal gunshot injuries in the United States during 2000. The majority of gun-related deaths in the United States are suicides, with firearms used in 16,907 suicides in the United States during 2004. An average of 29,000 Americans commit suicide annually by all forms. Where? In cities! John Muir made a point!

Everything works in "harmony' with rocks, dirt, water, fire, air, wind, rain, etc. Humans vibrate at something like seven megahertz a second, but I forgot the actual figure.
