They said on Saturday that at 105, Philadelphia leads the nation in the number of homicides. They also said that we are beating NYC and that is rare.

I never said "per capita", "safe or unsafe", nor did I say 2004 or 2005. I said "we have more murders in the city of brotherly love than anywhere else in the country" because I heard it on the local news this weekend. "There are lies, damn lies, and statistics", but I give you pure numbers from 2007. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18138140 Sun, 08 Apr 2007 19:33:24 EDT Re: Philadelphia Is Another Great Example http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18137847 RayW :

But instead of wi-fi, we have more murders in the city of brotherly love than anywhere else in the country. We should have spent the money on stopping crime. Go figure. :(
Would you please post your source for that statement?

»www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0921299.html has Reading, PA as the 21st unsafest city in the US and no other PA city makes the top 25 (2005).

In 2004 »www.morganquitno.com/cit04r.pdf had Philadelphia as #22 in murders with 22 per 1000 people, the worse, Camden, NJ had 60.8 per 1000.

Millions of taxpayer dollars were spent researching it.
