Dem Controlled Cities Among Most Violent in the World (N.O.; Detroit)
CNN ^
Posted on 04/19/2010 7:39:23 PM PDT by TigerBait
Urban cityscapes uniting large and vastly diverse populations have long been sources of great inspiration, commerce and community spirit, but for as long as they have existed, cities have also been beset by their own dangers. While it's a fair to say no city, where humans interact freely, is spared the scourges of violence and criminal activity, it is also evident that some are far more affected than others.
It's a tall order to quantify these problems and rank cities in terms of the most dangerous, particularly in countries so ravaged by conflict and chaos that day-to-day safety is only a distant dream for many inhabitants.

The title of the CNN article is “The Worlds Most Dangerous Cities?”
Sort of like the morons at CNN don’t believe their own story.

I think TigerBait had us all going there for a second. I actually thought CNN was being honest, for once, in captioning their story.
But I was disappointed, once again.

The vast majority of large cities are controlled by Rats and the vast majority of them are high crime areas. It is not a coincidence.

No that can’t be right. Tea parties are the most dangerous places.

I'll say it. It's the high percentage of blacks in these cities.
Pesky facts.

I’ve read discussions to this effect on other message boards. Crack cocaine, heroin, prostitution and gang-related violence are damaging the black community. But this is something the black community is doing to itself.
They can’t blame Whitey.
They can’t blame Bush.

Yes, retired military, shopkeepers, teens and houswives are real, real scary, compared to the gangbangers and street thugs in the jails in those same towns.
Klein, Matthews and the MSM are the enemy, it’s no playtime anymore, Liberalism is the opposite of freedom and needs to be treated as such.

72% of black babies are born out of wedlock. This is even after Planned Parenthood kills as many as they can. This is the game-changer. This is the permanent welfare class the statists crave and seek to perpetuate.
