In 5 of the 7 major crime categories, Denver has higher per capita crime than Los Angeles.””

Beware of how they use the categories.

About 2 months ago, the traitor La Raza Mayor of Los Angeles declared that in 2009, Los Angeles was safer than it had been in the 60’s.

B S !!

I lived there in the 60’s and it was much safer than now.

I left in 1993, and the crime was one of the reasons I left. It is worse now than then, and I still have friends there who keep me informed.

These are FBI statistics friend.

If you like to see them, I'll be happy to show you

Or are you suggesting crimes like murder, robbery, rape etc, are just swept under the rug, go unreported, are ginned up or somehow hidden?

Not hardly.
