My wife is from Rockford. Now I know why she's so angry.  What's up with a town like Rockford being in there? We usually stop there to eat on the way to the Dells. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile I live smack dab between Rockford and Chicago. I'd rather go to Chicago any day of the week. Rockford is a shithole. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
Seriously, Chicago, Il did not make the top 10? That to me puts the whole list at BS. Nearest I can tell, the majority of crime in Chicago happens in specific inner city areas.. Then then dilute the numbers by including the rest of the city where there is much less crime. The professionals liars here in the People's Republic of Konnecticut do the same thing. They take violent cities like Hartford and then dilute it with the demographics from the rest of the state, so they can say "Konnecticut is one of the safest states". Kinda like insisting a pile of shit is delicious once you mix it with more and more tomato sauce. |

Odessa is the middle of BFE. back in the early '80s they beat Miami per capita for #1 Anyone who's been to Odessa isn't shocked by that. Midland-Odessa is basically just a pit where people wait for the next oil boom to pop up. |

Memphis. A blight on an otherwise good state. All these places are democrat strongholds, why would anyone expect anything different? A fact the media conveniently ignores. Maryland is in the south? LoL.. OK. It is south of the Mason-Dixon line and most Marylander's (not Marylandian's <----- Gay) were going to the Confederacy until ol' Abe put a stop to to it by flooding the state with fed troops. BTW, the Battle of Antietam in MD was the most bloody and costly, in lives lost of any battle during the civil war, so I guess it's fitting Baltimore made the list. |

You do realize that the city isn't just one big ghetto, right? There are plenty of very wealthy areas and the population is larger than that of like 16 entire states. When a single city has something on the order of 5 times the population of Wyoming, it's going to take a lot of crime to bring up the overall crime rate. Quote HistoryQuoted:
