Did you actually READ the post you quoted in its entirety? Did you engage your brain in doing so?
Did I hear no and no?
Another hint for you:
the fact that ANY US city made that list is a shame considering the HUMONGOUS amount of money the US spend both on the justice system AND on 'defence' (in fact 'offence' is a more appropriate term)....
This list does not tell the whole story, for instance are most of the murders in the US cities gang related or drug related. This is my point unless a person have LIVED or visited Detroit, St Loius, or New Orleans do not look at this list as if was the "gospel"
