Then it must have changed greatly since you lived around "these parts"
because between Jasper and Young Harris up into Murphy, this is absolutely
NOT a "prosperous area" at all for locals. IF we are strictly talking about
"locals" and people that were born and bred here, that have never left.

Reporting criteria has not changed. Its not just overt hate crimes
either. Incidents like banning sharia is a good example, or the
continual refrain about the war on religion/christmas etc. Or the
efforts to get creatinism in the pub

But to accurately measure body fat you need multiple measures using
displacement volume or caliper measurements in multiple places. One
issue here is that for instance are you willing to allow a non medical
person to do some

premumble."
That's a stretch, considering "secure the blessings of liberty " that
follows.
