What's the problem? Just a few years ago Minneapolis, MN was referred to as Murderapolis. The thing of it is is, about 95% of the murders took place in two extremely concentrated areas of the city. In the rest of the city you could leave your house and hardly ever get murdered.

I don't see a problem.  If people are going to insist upon living like animals and murdering each other at the slightest provocation, it seems that in this case they are confining their Cultural Expression to a Select Community.  Sounds like a source of community pride.
