The 50 Most Violent Cities In The World
Business Insider ^ | 11/28/2013 | PAMELA ENGEL, CHRISTINA STERBENZ AND GUS LUBIN

Drug trafficking, gang wars, political instability, corruption, and poverty have combined to make Latin America by far the most homicidal region of the world. The region has 40% of the world's murders, despite having only 8 percent of the population, according to the U.N.

The highest murder rate of all is in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, with 169 homicides per 100,000 people, according to a study published earlier this year by Mexico's Citizens' Council for Public Security and Criminal Justice. The ranking is based on 2012 data, except for San Pedro Sula and Distrito Central in Honduras, where authorities would not cooperate and 2011 data was used.

The study does not count deaths in a war zone or cities where data was not available.

Forty-one of the top 50 dangerous cities are located in Latin America. U.S. cities also made the list, lead by New Orleans at 17th, along with Detroit, St. Louis, Baltimore, and Oakland.

50) Barranquilla, Colombia had 29.41 homicides per 100,000 residents.

49) Brasilia, Brazil had 29.73 homicides per 100,000 residents.

48) Belo Horizonte, Brazil had 29.74 homicides per 100,000 residents.

47) Monterrey, Mexico had 30.85 homicides per 100,000 residents.

46) Durban, South Africa had 30.94 homicides per 100,000 residents.

45) Macapá, Brazil had 32.06 homicides per 100,000 residents.

44) San Salvador, El Salvador had 32.48 homicides per 100,000 residents.

43) Oakland, United States had 33.10 homicides per 100,000 residents.

42) Curitiba, Brazil had 34.08 homicides per 100,000 residents.

41) Baltimore, United States had 35.03 homicides per 100,000 residents.

40) St. Louis, United States had 35.39 homicides per 100,000 residents.

39) Maracaibo, Venezuela had 35.44 homicides per 100,000 residents.

38) Nelson Mandela Bay, South Africa had 36.02 homicides per 100,000 residents.

37) Pereira, Colombia had 36.13 homicides per 100,000 residents.

When the Knoxville Horror-what was done to Channon Christian and Christipher Newsome, and the blowtorch death of a 12yo white boy by a black woman get hardly any MSM coverage, you know without a doubt that there’s an agenda to conceal the black on white murder rates. The black on white rape rate has an even higher discrepancy-statistically zero for white on black, while app 100 per day for black on white (yet the two biggest rape stories in the MSM were false accusations by black women against white men-Tawana Brawley and Crystal Mangum, who is now in prison for murdering her boyfriend). What I wonder is, when will whites decide they’ve had enough, especially considering the huge amount of wealth “redistributed” from whites to blacks to pay for our own demise? Is it because so many whites are unaware of just how bad the war on whites has gotten because of the media blackout? Eldely white women raped and murdered by black “youths”, elderly white WWII vets beaten to death by black “youths”, mobs of black “youths” looting and robbing businesses (then screaming about “food deserts” in their ghettos-who wants to put their business where they will be robbed out of business if they’re not murdered first?) and attacking innocent white bystanders (including Australian Chris Lane, just because they were “bored”-and midnight basketball wouldn’t have helped, they did it in broad daylight).

There’s a war on whites, and at least half the whites are traitors, complicit in aiding the enemy.

They probably don’t include Chicongo because they’re so blatant about fudging their crime statistics (especially homicide), that the FBI won’t even use them.

They count Hispanics as white when they’re perps, but as “Hispanic” when they’re victims. That way they can hit whites coming and going. They are determined that the truth about the war on whites will not be told, because if the truth of white victimisation comes out, they have less leverage to continue to “redistribute” any remaining white conservative middle-class wealth and put us into the government-dependent underclass. The only whites making out from the lies are the leftist white elites, and they want to keep it that way. Fortnately, the lower-tier white “elites” are the most susceptible to being victims of knockout “games” and such. Unfortunately, so are unaware everyday white middle-class people. We can thank the lying traitorous MSM for part of that unawareness.

Me neither, but at the rate things are going, we won’t have to-Mexico (at least its underclass) is coming here. And they will create Mexico here, just as Haitians create Haiti where they are a majority or large minority. and etc. Ghettos aren’t built as ghettos, the people who live in them make what they are.

Highest per capita income in Brazil and the federal bureaucrats don’t commute. Most of the descendants of the “nordestinos” live in the suburbs, rather than the government and residential zones themselves.

“Racial tension is rife in Jackson and has fueled some of its murders. Recently, there was a spate of attacks by young whites against blacks.”
I checked out that link in the NYTimes.
One murder, white on Black.



zeestephen, I also checked that link to make certain it was the murder I recalled from a couple of years back, (2011), and it was.

wardaddy is right on all counts.

DrO and I call the 10:00PM local Jackson news "The Murder Report." It's usually black on black and drug related, but otherwise it's black on white or white on white and also drug related. White on black is self defense by a shop keeper and a rarity and that's not murder.

I've lost count of the home robberies gone wrong where blacks have killed the white occupants. Families of all colors have their blow-ups and sometimes end in murders. I don't follow those, but again, I suspect drugs are involved.

Sad times, indeed.

Thanks for your two comments.

Michelle Malkin was instrumental in bringing my attention to the Christian-Newsome murders.

That remains the most horrible crime I have ever read about.

It will never completely leave my mind, just like the way I will never forget the two weeks when Terri Schiavo was starved and dehydrated to death.

I do share much of the despair you feel over the Black-on-white race war.

Even the mainstream Conservative publications don't want to deal with it.

It's only been a couple years since Rich Lowry at “National Review” fired John Derbyshire for writing about the war on white people.

And John Boehner and Mitch McConnell, the alleged leaders of the Republican Party, have never said a word about this.

The good news is that we are still traditional Conservatives.

We have an informal communication network, we cherish self-reliance and courage, we know how to avoid many of the potential risks, and many of our fellow Conservatives are armed and ready to defend themselves.

National Review became persona non grata with me when they fired Derbyshire for telling the simple truth using government statistics and facts backed up by source links, and not using one hint of a racial slur. The GOP-e is just as bad, turning on their own when the left pretends to be shocked because a man says “macaca” and deliberately misrepresenting what he said. The candidates who allow themselves to be shoved around are just as bad for not getting back in the left’s faces for their lies and hypocrisy. I can’t even think of a national candidate on the right who has ever told the left to go to h*ll when they tried to make a racial “dogwhistle” out of something he said if they could-and they are good at finding ways to do that. They are only good because candidates on the right act guilty even when they’re not.
