The FBI doesn't include Chicago in any of its murder statistics. It considers Chicago's reporting to be so unreliable that it must be excluded entirely.

Hopefully no one finds out our dirty secret... that being that we cook our books by having such a ridiculously low city population number so that our regular level of urban crime seems insanely high.

If I had the money I'd buy old school buses, armor them, and then offer inner city tours of the most violent parts of cities here in the US. I figure I could make a killing with foreigners who would like to see the worst parts of America but are rightly afraid to go there in their rental cars. With decent tour guides telling who was shot where, and why they were shot, the tours would be interesting.

That's definitely going to higher this year.  There was one week this summer where there was at least 1 homicide per day.

All of them.



Interestingly, the mayor of Stockton is Republican.  That would be a California Republican.  Apparently someone was killed by a gun that was stolen from him a couple years ago, that he forgot to report as stolen.  He probably won't be mayor much longer, he just got arrested for getting young boys drunk, and filming them playing strip poker.   So.... that's great.
