heavily black and heavily democratic party disasters...
big surprise...
yeah, I can think of a few places that would make such a list. Worcester Mass, for one.
Cincinnati saw an upswing in violent crime after the riots early in this century. The cops took a “see no evil” stance. The flatfoots only responded to calls, no proactive police work. The results speak for themselves.
Yeah! Ya notice none of those cities are in Texas!
You are correct. My husband is from St. Louis and the boundaries were set at the time of the Civil War by the Missouri Constitution. That is why the population of St. Louis is only something like 353 thousand, but the metro area with suburbs is 2.8 million. So many times statistics on St. Louis only account for this smaller, poorer section of St. Louis.
St. Louis is a river town, plagued by the same sort of problems as New Orleans. I'm a bit surprised that Memphis (another riverside metropolis) didn't make the list.
Go find that red/blue electoral map at USA Today... the one that drills down to the county level. The Mississippi river has a lot of blue along both banks.
Despair must have a hand in it.
Does the St.Louis data join St.Louis,Missouri and St.Louis, Illinois together?
LOL Comforting to know one lives in the second most deadly city in America!
P.S. (Ray Nagin = ex-Republican)
St. Louis ia an armpit
Well, NYC hasn't had a Dem mayor since Rudy got in in 1994. I am no Rudy (or Kerik) fan, but they have made NYC a safe place to live!
I wonder how many were drug related. And, just exactly where was L.A.?
I used to sell residential real estate in Baltimore, lost many a sale to people transfering in from other cities when they found out about the crime. One just has to know where not to go, unless they are buying. Now I am in Wilmington DE and in the county I live in there has been about 1 murder in the last two years.

Stand proud, Bawlamer ! ;-D
I surely hope Reid and Pelosi don’t see these numbers. They will surely want to pull us out of those cities.
Speaking of Pelosi, she is going to be the master of ceremonies at the JJ dinner at 8:30 tonite on CSPAN, and they will be streaming it. Should be fun, all the dim candidates will be trashing each other.
I would bet (I am a betting man as it were) that most of the murders in these large cities are most generally confined to a specific area of each city as is the case here in Kansas City, Missouri. (Kansas City, Kansas, well, that’s another story altogether.)
