Has nothing to do with so called ‘racial tensions’....I hate the media in this country.
Good ol’ Texas didn’t even make the top 25. I could have sworn that Dallas or San Antonio, Democrat bastions, would have made the list.
I hear that.
See http://www.city-data.com for crime and demographics stats for nearly every city in the US.
So, be honest: How many would have lost money betting on Chicago topping that list, much less not even making the top 25?
Lol! “Murderopolis!” Gonna be hard for the left-wingers to defend against that name. But I’m sure this problem is nothing that higher taxes can’t solve.
Also known as the three (real) cities in Connecticut.
(Jewett City, for instance, is not a city.)
No! Say it ain’t so!
*chuckle*
We avoid there as much as is humanly possibly nowadays. And when we go hubby packs serious heat.
I despise how they present these lists in page after page format
Time consuming for folks like me and tedious
they do it to generate hits and more ad presentation...per page
Assclowns
There's a "view as one page" link in the article.
Flint’s stay atop the list will be short-lived.
Still losing 20,000 people every ten years, it won’t be considered a city for very much longer.
Nothing in Arizona on that list
Youngstown is not on the list.
It must be a virtual paradise!
It’s a jungle out there.
The so-called "lower crime rates" there are due to cooking the numbers. Both Austin and Portland are third-world cesspools due to the abundance of DemonRATS and liberals. They're both Obama's kind of towns. Austin is a blight on Texas. The real Texas is in the far-flung suburbs and rural areas.
Where's the Equal Rights Dept. people?
What do the cities have in common?
DISPARATE IMPACT....they all have HUGE inner-city tribal parasiste black populations, and, compared to the percentage of blacks nationwide, there is crime that is DISPROPORTIONATE to the population numbers (black percentage), and there should be an investigation into why whites are not participating in the crimes to the extent blacks are.
That's the logic: racism because whites are excluded from crime in the major cities, disproportionately.
/sarc (although very true; it's not PC to mention it)
I’m sure banning any long gun with a eeeevil pistol grip or high cap mag will solve the problem.
Seems that CCL cities fare really well. Criminals are selfish survivallist and won’t mess with armed citizens.

The most significant and relevant factor common to all of these cities is a high concentration of a certain ethnic population (or two, in some cases). They are the ones committing the vast majority of the violent crimes. But that cannot be mentioned in the article, of course.
It should also be noted that there are some very safe neighborhoods in many of these cities and, in the greater metro areas, some very safe suburbs.
Notice also that America’s four largest cities—New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Houston—do not make the list. While there are many violent crimes in those cities, because of their huge overall populations, the percentages are relatively less.
