Excellent, Philadelphia may be able to take the Number One spot if they keep up the effort.

Big rivalry like football is on. Chicago violent crime versus Philadelphia.

New idea: try to step up law enforcement on obvious criminal types plus keep prisoners in prison longer and reduce the number of victims.

Nah, it’ll never catch on.

An interview with a police official during a law and order period (remember back then?) had the line “I think part of the reduced crime rate is due to mandatory sentencing. When more of the repeat offenders are still locked up in prison, they aren’t out victimizing citizens. Less crime.”

Since the election, these folks don’t have productive activity to do, such as making forged ballots.
