America’s Top 25 Murder Capitals

[JamilALAmin]

Fellow ATLiens we gotta get off this list. I thought we were close to getting off this shyt but i guess I shoulda known better

It's sadly probably going to be worse when this years stats come out. I haven't seen the city this hot in a while. Westside and SW in particular been super turned up. Wednesday had 3 different murders in SW by itself and 1 more in NW in the same night. That's the type of shyt I saw when I was growing up. Ain't seen it like that since before the Olympics. I know it's not counted with Atlanta stats but Dekalb County and ClayCo been hot AF too.

NOLA and BR lack role models

I knew west palm beach was bad but not as bad that it made the list. I think it has to do with everyone moving up there. It's much cheaper to live and not as populated. Of course the county has good parts and bad parts. I know not to fukk around and get stranded in the middle of Lake Worth. I think my breh @He Who Posts Well is up there. Maybe he can shine some light on the situation. Unless he runs the city, then I don't know nothing.

Memphis had a record high homicides is 198, set in 1993.

It is only November of 2016 and they already have 193 homicides, making this Memphis deadliest year ever.

This is the second straight year a major city has beat its previous homicide record set in the 90s.

Baltimore did it last year.

Im seeing a trend.

Chicago is on point to break 700 homicides, being the first city to do so since NYC in 2001(not including 9/11)


Dallas is on pace to have its highest homicide count in 9 years.

So is Houston.

It's a # game reduce the population of any city and the ratio changes... But what do you mean by "white"?

Caucasians.

On a side note, Cali has 3 cities listed


Cot damn @ Milwaukee tho. I aint been there in a few years and was planning on going early 2017 to visit fam. Might have to check in with some child hood homies to see why its so heated up there

this is for 2015, I think Houston is gonna make the top 10 in 2016 right before I go there for the 1st time for super bowl weekend

first time in my life ive seen this list without Richmond, California on it hopefully it continues to stay that way

When I think of Connecticut I don't think homicide but apparently they don't play in Hartford

when it comes to income inequality CT is like day and night.

Have one city in poverty and the next town over -- one of the richest in the country -- sitting not too far from eah other in the same county.

I hope not. The city has been kind of quiet. At least I think so. I'm so I don't be out in the streets like that.

Take away the 45% or so white population in Chicago and those homicide rate numbers would spike.

1 .3 million population black & 480 victims black

 

[Supreme365]

Wait, DC had 160 homicides and they only solved 29 of them?

I'm surprised we back on the list the murder rate was dropping steadily these past few years shyts sad tired of seeing young brothers go

So it correlates with high concentrations of nikkas... oh well

No, it's a high concentration of poor people. But if you want to spin this into the "black people are more violent than white people" narrative, then whatever
