Detroit. Kalamazoo. East Lansing. Saginaw. Flint. South and East Chicago. Harlem. Brooklyn. Los Angeles. Miami. Houston. Dallas.
If you ever visit, make sure you read up on places. Like with LA, Miami, Houston, Dallas... there are many great places to visit, but there are also places in those large cities that get very unfriendly and dangerous "when the lights go out."
I really couldn't say for sure, but I do think in Toronto we're generally a more respectful and tolerant society as a whole. We're extremely diverse, only about 50% white while the rest of Canada is about 85% white, and we tend to celebrate all our different cultures with some very significant, internationally renowned, cultural specific festivals, etc. We also have very vibrant ethnic communities and economic centers throughout the city.
We have lots of problems with gang violence and some intra-ethnic crime as most large cities do, but we average about a 10th of the murders Chicago does and Chicago is virtually our twin in population, size, climate, etc. Guns do play a role - Canada generally doesn't have a gun culture in the urban areas - mostly it would be a rural, farming/hunting/animal control type of gun culture and while handguns aren't totally illegal anywhere, there are very strict requirements to legally own and carry a handgun - basically the only people who have handguns in Toronto are police and criminals and it doesn't seem to make us a less safe environment.
I honestly don't know but a lot of it comes down to attitude towards others - the respect and tolerance I spoke about earlier. But just yesterday we had two young men shot to death outside their school, innocent boys just watching a fight that was taking place and some kid pulled out a gun and started shooting in the air and these two boys happened to be in the wrong place, wrong time - 15 and 17 dead for no reason. And there have been other young people dying, often stabbings during fights - so maybe the young culture isn't as safe as I see things from my perspective.
Well, take one of the cities, and look at the stats:
Wilmington (city), Delaware
58% Black, 12.4% Hispanic, and 27.9% White. per 2010 stats.
Wilmington (city) QuickFacts from the US Census Bureau
One can also look at who the typical murder victims are:
Man gunned down in the street
and you may count the number of White boys and girls involved in the shootings (if any).
Ya know, if poverty was such a big issue, then the Amish would have the highest violent crime rates in the country.
I always enjoy it when one of the deep thinkers on here, raises the level of debate.
btw, why did you choose the name flamethrower?
I can usually burn-up unsubstaniated opinions---like in this thread. No one is providing a shread of proof to challenge the facts I presented.
Since you are obviously so wise, and such a deep thinker yourself, you must already know the demographics of all the most violent cities in the nation.
However, for those that only fill their minds with the garbage fed to them by the Major Media (USA Today, CNN, NBC and the like)---the brainwashed and ignorant will give the same PC line about these places "being poor" and being a product of "gun violence---and on and on."
Now, if you have any facts that counter the truth, please let me know. Please let me know if any of the listed cities in this thread are:
Majority Asain, White or Native American.
Have a majority of the victims and suspects that are the same as above
Have very good arrest and clearance rates (if you don't know what that means, then look it up).
I can usually burn-up unsubstaniated opinions---like in this thread.
Been to Toronto a couple of times. Beautiful city. Canada in general is a great place to visit. One of my fondest memories is the week we spent in Quebec City. No one even complained about my high school French
Brooklyn is the new hipster heaven. Lots of trendy restaurants and bars and such. People don't go to Manhattan anymore.
Sure there are places that you probably don't want to be in after dark but by and large Brooklyn is a cool place to visit.
LMAO you havent provided ANY facts that say its ethnic demographics, none. Take a stats class and get back to us. Nobody educated, honest and objective is gonna take your claim seriously.
using the broken logic in your post Shaq was a better shooter than MJ because Shaq shot 58% and MJ only 49% :lamo
Please, Lets us know when you have facts that support your claim. thanks

How about that? :shock:
I've spent the majority of my life with a mailing address of Wilmington, De.
Never knew I was so gangsta....
What's up with Florida?
Happy Saturday, bubba! :2wave:
Hey, I see Canton, Ohio, on the list, which totally surprised me! Some years ago, I got a call from my neighbor telling me there was a young man sitting in my garden eating my green peppers and was he a friend of my sons? I looked outside and nope, I didn't know him from Adam. The neighbor came over then. The man apologized but said he was hungry since he was hitch-hiking and traveling on foot trying to get to his parent's home in West Virginia and had no money to buy food, and offered to work for what he had eaten. God! We fixed him a bag of sandwiches and some tomatoes, gave him a couple cans of Coke and a few dollars, and he thanked us and left. Never saw him again. Surprisingly my dog had not barked to warn me that a stranger was on my property! :shock: So WTH was that all about - some cosmic test or something? I've never figured that one out! :mrgreen:
You are a kind soul, Pol. Can't say my reaction would have been the same.
1.)I already showed the links on post #28.
2.)But, the facts are the facts.
3.) Trolls and others can only rant and rave, but being Trolls---that is what they are--- they can't bring in any relevant facts into the discussion.
4.)The facts are: the demographics/culture of all the ten most dangerous small towns, the Ten Most Dangerous Cities in the US, and the 25 Most dangerous neighborhood in America are All that way because the large enclaves of Blacks thugs, and to a lesser extent, Hispanics thugs, are allowed to continue without proper judicial restraints.
Even if some of the dangerous towns on the three lists are majority White, Asian or Native American---all have large enclaves of Blacks and Hispanics that commit violent acts far outside their represented numbers.
Take another example on the list, North Little Rock, AR. Even though it is barely majority White, Blacks there are the ones doing the majority of the violence---as in this recent case:
Update: Suspect, 17, Arrested for NLR Murder - Arkansas Matters
5.)Now, if my figures are wrong, please come up with any hard evidence in any of the Top Ten most dangerous places in the US (cities small cities, and neighborhoods) are products of Native American, White or Asian violence.

1.)once again you are simply proving you have no understanding of stats and how they work LOL there is NOTHING here that makes your claim a fact. Honest and educated people will never buy it.
2.) I agree you havent posted any that support you claim yet and make it factual.
Like i said stats dont correlate to yor claim. My example already proved how mentally retard and dishonest your correlation is lol
Per stats I could claim Shaq was a better shooter than jordan becase shae shot almost 10% better. So the FACT is shaq shot 10% high FG% but it is NOT a fact that he is a better shooter. LMAO
3.) deflections and failed insults only further show how unsupportable your false claims are. If you thing your claims are factually all you have to do is show it, so far this hasnt happened in any way.
4.) not a fact :shrug: again thank you for proving you dont understand facts and stats and how they work
5.) BOOM! an there you have it, the phrase "my figures" points to the huge dishonest failures in your claims. You "figures" do not correlate to your claim. LMAO thank you for AGAIN proving this.
Once again, Please, Lets us know when you have facts that support your claim. thanks
I don't see a problem here with education levels, simply a matter of brainwashing and deliberate misinformation by the Major Media.
You buy the same line media liberals feed you. Whites commit most the murders in the US, therefore, Whites are the bad guys. But there is something called "relative risk." Young Black males are but 1% of the US population, yet commit 25% of the murders. These rates are proven fairly well in Chicago.
Chicago is the most dangerous large city, with many of her neighboorhoods among the 25 most dangerous and violent.
Here are the plain facts:
Chicago per 2010 data, had 2,700,000 residents.
Whites were 33.3%, Blacks 34.2% and Hispanics 28%. So all three majors groups are each about 1/3 of the total.
Looking at the Chicago Police Crime report for 2011, it gives the following facts on murders:
https://portal.chicagopolice.org/po...s/Statistical Reports/Murder Reports/MA11.pdf
433 Murders in 2011.
Blacks 326 75% of total
Hispanics 82 18% of total
Whites 20 5% of total
Other 5
Given DOJ and other sources, Blacks kill other Blacks 93 percent of the time.
A look at statistics on black-on-black murders | PolitiFact Florida
So even though the Chicago statistics show that Blacks commit 15 times more murders than Whites, we can give then the benefit of the doubt that they may only commit 14 times more murders.
In our county, there are consistantly 30 times more murders in the 80% Black city nearby, than in our rural and suburban of roughly the same size that is 78% non-Black.
The reasons why crime patterns do not fully match demographics 1:1 (although demographics ARE the most telling) is that our country has a superior police and criminal justice system that is not ran by liberal Democrats and other socialists.
If you are a very bright person, you can also see that murder case clearance rates in Chicago go down as murders go up.
wow thats a lot of made up assumptions that are factually wrong and then a bunch of states that still dont support your false claim
once AGAIN, please take a stats class so you understand them and then in your next post PLEASE ets us know when you have facts that prove your claim.
heck just ONE fact that proves your claim would be great! thanks
1.)I've taken stat classes before.
2.)Now who is the one hear with NO evidence to back up their claims?
3.)The Liberal crime studies you drool over must use state crime data instead of local crime data to mislead the public.
4.)And you haven't even provided ONE study to back up your claims that ethnic demographics is not most common driver of violent crime in the US.
Please let me know when you've looked at my stats and can disprove them.
1.) retake them then because you are ignoring the information they provide. Each post of your proves that fact.
2.) what claims are you talking about? I havent made any claims? me and many others simply pointed out the fact that your states do not support your claim and we are waiting on FACTUAL evidence that make your claim true. Please try to keep up
3.) BOOM! and there you have it!thank you for proving my point, 1.) not a liberal LOL but you going there is VERY telling and shows biased 2.) me nor any other educated, honest and objective person would solely use crime states to judged races of people because that "logic" is mentally inane
4.) not needed, i made no such claim, again stats would of taught you this too, YOU made false claims and cant back it up, WE are asking you for facts to support that false claim and you have none. Nothing is needed by us.
again, when you have ONE single fact that makes your claim true, please let us know, we are waiting . . .thank you
Excuse me, but you're the one who has nothing to show in this thread.
No facts.
No "stats."
Nothing but empty complaints.
Perhaps you could provide some of your insights on the crime problem listed in this thread.
I could use a good :lamo
translation: you are STILL dodging and deflecting and got NOTHING
nobody honest, educated and objective falls for it, your OP completely failed lol
maybe in your NEXT post you will ONE single fact that makes your claim true, please let us know, we are waiting . . .thank you
Didn't think you'd have something intelligent to say except your same Trolling remarks. Even the least informed posters I've seen here have done better.
:lamo
Daytona. Dangerous? Sure man.
