Another example of not letting the facts get in the way of a
good story. While the homicide rate in Chicago is indeed
high, it is no where near first place.

On the bases of the homicide rate per 100k of population,
among the major metro areas, Chicago (population 2,703,713)
is not the leader with 15.9/100k, rather New Orleans LA
(population 346,974) with 57.6/100k [3.6X] is, and Detroit
(population 713,239) with 48.2/100k [3.0X] is the runner up.

HEY! Don't forget Camden, New Jersey! We're in there too. (46.8 per
100,000)

Louisianna has pushed NJ down to third place for political corruption,
but we're fighting back with Camden on city crime stats. We'll show
'em.

For cites and my action item proposal to my Federal
legislators to do something about this growing problem see

http://mcduffee-associates.us/DROP%20BOX/curfew.pdf

This proposal has the advantage of applying restrictions
where they are required, only where they are required, is
activated/suspended by objective numerical data, and should
have minimal federal taxpayer cost. Unless you are running
a gin mill or biker bar in the war zones, what's not to
like?
