I'm from Philly and I can see why PA is number 1. There is ridiculous & senseless crime here. I can't even watch the news, cops getting murdered left and right, grandmothers getting beaten to death (RIP Ms. Walton). SO SO SAD! We are also #1 for the worst drivers in the country! (according to AAA). Sometimes I really hate this city.
one of my friends who was on the first 48 was sentenced to life without last month free stetory calhoun aka big boobie
Birmingham man sentenced to life in prison for fatal *** during Magic City Classic celebration By Eric Velasco -- The Birmingham News December 07, 2009, 11:35AM Stetory Calhoun received a mandatory term today of life without parole in the capital murder of his girlfriend's former boyfriend, who was killed while sitting in a car amid a crowd celebrating the Magic City Classic football game in Birmingham during October 2007.
Calhoun, 23, was convicted in the killing Kenneth Holmes, 21, on Oct. 26, 2007. Calhoun continued to maintain his innocence during today's sentencing hearing.
The *** stemmed from relationships both men had with Jatavius Thomas, who was the mother of the victim's child and Calhoun's girlfriend.
During the brief sentencing hearing in Jefferson County Circuit Court, Holmes' mother said the killing was senseless.
"My son didn't bother anybody," said the mother, Wanda Parker. "I feel that justice has been served in the law. But justice is not in my heart. Only God can fill the void in our heart. I hope Stetory can find it in his heart to find God in his life. That is my prayer."
Holmes was struck by two of the eight *** Calhoun fired at the victim's car. Holmes tried to drive away, but wrecked on 13th Street North.
*** into the car made the homicide a capital offense. But the case did not meet any of the criteria for imposing a death sentence, the other punishment for a capital conviction.

Philly is ALWAYS high on the black murder rate because blacks overwhelmingly outnumber everyone else in the city. Factor in all other races and Philly drops like a rock. So everyone saying how bad Philly is, look at the overall rates. Your area might be worse. That being said, brothers gotta stop all the violence in Philly, seriously. Absolutely no respect for life among too many dudes in this town. Murders, robberies, assaults. College students from other areas hate living in the city and now they're starting to pack heat in response. It's gotten ridiculous.
I live in St.Louis we do have about 11 murders a *** its sad I have a 10 yr old son my only child and I feel if I don't move he won't make it to 21, st louis is small and full of violence I hate it here but I don't know where to go to start over, but I have to leave its just that bad. My friend lost her sons 19 and 16 last year 2 months apart both *** down in daylight in public.
i got another gang story to tell. sunday i was talkin to my uncle on phone and then all of a sudden all i heard a burst of gunfire i ducked down did'nt wanna get *** after the *** ceased i looked outside i saw a *** with a trenchoat and a AK-47 fleeing the scene this *** had lit up somebody house across the street from me
To all my killers & my hundred dollar billers! PA all day!

Rendell & Mayor Nut Nut for making the situation worse so I agree Media I'm trying to get out NNNOOOWWWWW!!! And I cant comment on other states but I def know about Philly....

DONT S**T GO DOWN HEA SO PLZ GET YALL FACTS STR8 CUS I FIND DAT FUNNY...KEEP LEADIN PPL ON TUU THINK FLORIDA IS SAFE LOL...IF IT WUS SO SAFE I WULD STILL B DEA
@ rebelspeaks, yeah the pizza delivery killings are crazy. And the crazy thing is the 60 year old pizza guy was killed by 4 teens, age 14-18. It seems to be the younger people here that are commiting alot of the crimes nowadays. Like the 18yr old that beat the grandmother to death, that was my friends mom. Crazy. They have no respect or care whatsover. People are rude and disrespectful and ready to pop off at the drop of a dime. U can't even walk through the gallery without seeing gangs of kids fighting and carrying on. i hear u, i'm so ready to get out of here.
I'm from Pittsburgh but now stay in Erie Pa. I know Erie have somethin to do with it. It is so bad up here I hate it. Just the other day my husband was going to a corner store and heard *** and ppl running. 4 young boys were *** at each other. The 12 year old in the group had a oozie. Its been on the increase up here especially since most of the jobs left. Its real sad. SMH
And this is according to what study, there is no citation. MTO gets an F for plagrism. I know the murder rate is high in Missouri, but how in the worls did we beat out Georgia, New York, California, Texas , Tennessee, and Florida's not even ranked. I know we may be up there but not above those states.
NOT HAPPY MY STATE MADE THIS LIST (IF IT IS REAL) BUT THE FIRST 48 DONT COME TO PHILLY BECAUSE ITS NOT SAFE FOR THE CREW TO COME HERE BECAUSE THEY WILL GET ROBBED OR *** AND THATS JUST BEING REAL ANYBODY FROM HERE WILL TELL YOU, YOU CAN DIE FROM SAYIN "WHATS UP" TO THE WRONG PERSON AND THEY TAKE IT THE WRONG WAY, I SEEN IT HAPPEN....NICCAS OUT HERE FEEL LIKE THEY DONT HAVE ANYTHING TO LOSE AND THATS A DANGEROUS PERSON, AND BESIDES MURDERS IN PHILLY GO 65% UNSOLVED SO THEY THINK THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH KILLIN....I HATE BLACKS KILLIN BLACKS BUT I LIVE HERE AND I LOVE MY CITY...PHILLY ALL DAY 215
Something is wrong with these numbers... I live in FLA and in major cities killings are high. So I know that Fla should at least been #49 or something. I will admit, I love being able to walk to the store at *** and return home safely. I was telling friend about this same thing. All these people from the the north is bringing the crimes down here with them. If you plan on coming down, PLZ!!!!! Leave all that *** up there!! Cause need to be able to walk freely around my town and not have to worry about getting ***.
MAN MTO YAL REALLY STARTIN TO GET ON MY *** NERVES......
TO ALL MY BLACK PPL CUZ I LUV YAL SO MUCH (LOL).... DONT FEED INTO THIS SH!T ....MTO RACE-BAITIN AS-***-USUAL!!!!....NOT ONCE ...AND I MEAN "NOT ONCE" DID THESE "FAKE A$$ STATISTICS SAY BLACK MURDER RATE".... IT SIMPLY SAYS "MURDER RATE" ...PERIOD.....
YAL DONT BUY INTO THEY ***!T THEY JUST TRYIN TO GET ANOTHER 1000+ COMMENT THREAD LIKE "YESTERDAY"..... AND THEY KNOW THE WAY TO DO IT IS TO GET PPL ALL HOT, BOTHERED, ANGRY & READY TO ARGUE.....THEY LUV TO WATCH US "*** EACHOTHER UP".... LETS NOT GIVE THEM THAT SATISFACTION....
@CL101, i was just thinking the same thing. It's like people want their city to be on this list! I'm ashamed that we are number 1 (if this list is true). Being on a list of the higest murder rates is certainly not something to be proud of. People always acting like they wanna be from the baddest place--not me. I don't wanna have to worry about getting popped because someone thinks i looked at them wrong. Or your neighbor who you've known all your life kills you. People need to be happy if their state is not up there. Thats where i'm trying to move to! lol @ emmett, how u plan on going out?
sicilatina i always thought i was gonna leave this with via *** from an enemy . thats how most died from murder. i had one friend that was *** with a AR-15 the sight was so gory his guts and intestines and *** was all on the sidewalk, he died 7 hours later at the hospital my homeboy who was *** he survived but his elbow was blown off
@ emmett, wow that's crazy. That's the last way i want to leave here, but like u said in many high crime areas, thats how so many lives are taken. Thats why I'm so against guns . . . well thats a whole other topic for debate. It's really sad and scary, especially when you have kids. You don't want to think about something like that happening to your children, or you not being there to see them grow up due to someone elses wrecklessness.
@ emmettmays85 yea, i live in miami & i feel the same way. this had me thinking because i lived in texas most of my life & i always use to hear about gang shi*t, etc. maybe i have heard about gangs once here & they were jamaicans. they don't show black people getting killed everyday on the news like texas. in fact, the only time i've seen black people on the news like that is during MEMORIAL(hip-hop)WEEKEND when all the ghetto peeps from all over america come in town destroying *** & getting arrested. but we do have the craziest crimes in america like these women killing their kids, etc.
The only reason why Pennslyvania's ranking is number 1 is because of all the legal gangbangers ( a.***.a. cops) *** and/or beating people. that's why im hella glad i moved back to Oakland. the Town has allways been corrupt so there's no surprize, but in Pa, the cops come off like they aint evil and then u get ur *** kicked on some "we were bored cuz the city is sleepin but we still gotta patrol" ***!
@lili4582 I know exactly what u mean. Cops in PA are so *** up. Some one break into your house and you call them now they wanna lock u up because you are "bothering" them. There is so much *** that goes unsolved or swept under the rug because the cops are to lazy to do their job and simply don't care. But let it happen to rich white folks and that is a whole different story.
@Whitley4u Ok you have said that 3 times. Maybe people on her do believe it's true. Philly is off the hook. And i'm not a stupid *** blogger. I was born and raised in philly, used to work as a social worker in SouthWest Philly and have seen a lot of sh*t. Just turn on the news huny. And if you say Philly is not all that bad then maybe where u live isn't. In 2007 Philly was number 1 on the list too. It's a fact. I don't know if this is true or not, but I'm inclined to believe that philly 9if not #1) is certainly up there on the list.
And yeah it doesn't specify Philly, is says PA. Maybe that's what your issue is. There are many other high crime cities in PA besides Philly. Did u know that York PA has one of the highest concentration of KKK members? I used to go to school near there, believe me, they still lynch black people out there like it's 1960. Again not proud, that PA may be top, but I can see why.
@sicilatina,What are you talking about?You have been sitting on this blog site all day talking.Philly is NOT off the hook compared to Chicago,Detroit,and New Orleans,just watch the national news and you're see.Philly isn't that bad so you can sit up here all and keep going on and on.Philly murder rate has dropped down since 2007.New Orleans was and is the #1 most dangerous city and the #1 city with the highest murder rate.Philly is #21 on the REAL,ACCURATE list.I'm was born in Atlanta and raised in Philly so please,save it.
@Whitley4u ok and you are like the ONLY one from philly advocating that philly is "not that bad" Like i said, obviously you haven't seen much. Maybe its based on ones experience. I said i don't know if THIS list is true, but i do know that Philly has been #1 within the last few years. So explain that? And since you have the statistics, show me the list . . .
@ Whitley I honestly could care less whether philly has more than Chicago, Detroit, and New Orleans. Because like i said earlier, that is not something to be proud of. All I was saying that if it is top, I can see why. U may have your opinion and others have theirs. So while u are on here trying to prove that Philly is angelic, I'm watching my *** back out here and so should u. I'm not saying that as a treat so don't take that the wrong way. I'm saying that as a fellow philadelphian that cares about the welface of others. It's rough out here mama, but hopefully you haven't experienced it.
@sicilatina Actually,No I'm not even someone above said Philly is NOT that crazy.You must live in Frankford or Kensington where it's a lot of crime with a lot of "poverty" so calm down.If you "Know this is NOT true' then why are you still talking then?????Yo have been on here ALL DAY saying "Philly This",Philly That" but still thinks this list is CORRECT.
Lol ppl namin cities when its states that r ranked..doesn't matta how big or small is, its based on per 100 thousand blk ppl..we kno da larger cities contribute da big bulk of these #'s, so let's not get beside ourselves..oh, *** do ppl still brag bout they spots bein ranked high on these list!? Lol..bein I'm frm houston, *** all da big cities *** tx, to b *** da 20's is a good look..chill, bang *** *** smoke sumthin..htown stand up
WOOOOOOOOW THIS SHOCKZ THE HELL OUTTA ME..
I LIVE IN FLORIDA..BORN AND RAISED..WO0T WE AINT RANKED..
ONE THING ABOUT FLORIDA IS ITS N0T ALOT OF KILLIN..ITS ALOT OF THEFT, DRUG TRAFFICKING, AND SIDE LINE HUSTLE LIKE PIMPS AND EVEN MADAMS (FEMALE PIMPS) BUT AINT ALOT OF KILLIN AND MURDERING..GANG VIOLENCE...
LOL, no not from Frankford or Kensington (why since u see I'm part latina that's what you think?!) That's funny! Born in G-town. Actually i live in the suburbs now, about an hour away. I got out of the city years ago. But I still work in SW philly and it is bad.
And you have been on here saying the exact same comment 3 different times. . .
Yeah well I'm from Pittsburgh & there is a hell of alot going on here. I could testify that it is alot, more than most can handle I could count @ least 15 homicides by gun; young men who are directly related to me... It's a *** shame. And no It ain't nice @ all. I actually live in a community that "boasts" the highest unsolved murder rates in the city..... Pray much.
@ Fay: Everything
I live on the West Side of Chicago (not from here, just live here temporarily) and I'd have to agree that this list isn't accurate. I also agree with the comment that the statistics should be on cities, not states. Even though TX is higher on this list, I still can't wait to move back down there (again, not where I'm from but where I lived long enough to know that's where I want to be). There's way too much violence here.
@itstoomuch u ain't never lied they tryna hide wat really happen *** the city let's jus say they wanna keep the TOURIST comin *** but the tourist the main ones gettin murdered y cuz they think it's so pretty til ya *** out *** the middle of the nite tryna take a picture of the monument *** Capitol when it lit up *** ya *** get snatched!!! My uncles grandfather r retired and still on the force trust me crime sick out here MD #10 must b becuz of Bmore *** PG
@ Whitley4u, why am i worried? Because I care about and serve the people and my community, thats why. And what goes on in the city effects all of us no matter where we live. I have fam here all over the city. West oak lane and Mt. Airy too. My gm was killed on the corner of thouron ave. So that's why i care. Just because I live in the burbs doesnt mean I put myself on a high horse. Crime is everywhere. And because of the things I've seen in my life and profession, thats why i feel strongly about it.
@fairest1-I'm from Pittsburgh and I definitely concure: Almost every time I talk to my best friend (who still lives there) she's telling me of another old friend or someone close to us that has been ***/killed. Sadly, almost 1/2 of the young men we went to school with are dead. That's why I'm not too eager to live there again (was home for a few months 2 yrs ago & during that time quite a few people we knew were murdered).
Top ten...California. its nothing shocking...i thought we would be top 5 at least. OKC getting it in...I see ya. I dont see these statistics as 100% accurate...Cali is the biggest state in the country population wise compared to someplace like Nevada which is one of the smallest so if your comparing you gotta take that into account.
NOW EVERYBODY AND THEIR GOTDAMN MOMMA GON SAY "our state made tha list" and sh*t,LIKE ITS A FU*KING HONOR AND SH*T AND WHY DOES MTO POST BULLSH*T LIKE THIS ANYWAYZ???VIOLENCE AINT NO MOTHERFU*KING HONOR!!!GTFOH;but niccas got tha audacity to be proud and sh*t that they so called GANGSTA *** city or state made a phony azz list.SH*TS PLAYED!!
@ GREEKNESS, yes I work in SW. U r right, it is rough out there. I was a social worker for years and there were certain areas that I would not go to after dark that are notorious for *** and gang activity. Ofcourse this happens in many cities, but just speaking on how I know certain areas of Philly to be. I have also heard of things happening in WOL/Mt.Airy/G-Town too, it's not exempt. Wasn't Officer Cassidy killed at the Dunkin Doghnuts in WOL? That was the biggest case all over the news at that time.
Wow! It really saddens me to see Pa. as the number murder capital! I’m Philly-proud..born and raised… Even with the statistic…I plan to be here to see what I can do to make a difference…being a part of the neighborhood watch team is crucial! I WILL SNITCH THE HELL OUT UR *** IF I SEE YOU DOING WRONG…TRUST ME ON THAT! Beyond town watches; to end crime is a holistic effort for sure! Socioeconomic and demographics has to be honed upon….social and cultural diversities must addressed in our schools…role-models to the youths are crucial…job training and job availability is a must…..but more importantly…re-adjustments to the mental minds of the disenfranchised is imperative…key is…how do you teach self-worth?…appreciation and respect?…spiritual insight and have it adhere? How do we address the psycho-dynamics of a mentally damaged society? We definitely have our work cut out for us as a society!
Florida was not ranked because
"In 2007 the state of Florida, as in prior years, did not submit any data to the FBI Supplementary Homicide Report. Data from Florida was not requested individually because the difference in collection techniques would create a bias in the study results.".
So that doesn't mean it's not up there on the list. There is just no data to support it.
PAY ATTENTION TO ALL OF YOU FROM BIG POPULAR CITIES...people tell what i call GHOST STORIES about places like cali,and new york,and chicago,and florida. IM FROM WISCONSIN.Milwaukee..all the really bad things go on here..anybody whos been here will tell you. its like 90% black people here. and we dont have gangs so that makes it even more dangerous because their is no law or order. just everybody for themselves. im not proud at all of it...but people open ur eyes but happy that your not high on the list. its kinda sad to see people telling their ghost stories on why their city is soooo bad.
@ Im_THAT_Chick: What's good Pittsburgh! Yeah it's not good hear @ all. In our local news there has been alot of talk about our city doubling the murder rate, over the national average!!! It's heart breaking really. I lost my lil Bro a couple of years ago, a boyfriend, and a bestfriend.... all in the last few years. That's not counting people I've went to school with, neighbors ect. My cousin was murdered a few months ago in Penn Hills with the police officer Crawshaw.... smh
Lot of funerals; You know it's bad when you know all the funeral directors around the city personally. Stay up PA!
First off, the First 48 is a show that has to be given permission to *** in a specific city. Philly used to let them here alot, but we got smart a figured out it's bad publicity, so we nixed that.
As to the percentage of blacks Vs. whites, in Philly It's roughly 43%black and 44% White. We don't do alot of the gang thing here in Philly, we have a lot of soldiers of fortune, a bunch of people who just too real for their own *** good. Yeah we we have gangs in the smaller cities but not here, and tey banging too. Sad.
.
Thanks @ Ezra_Yisrael1970 & neeceecole...sad but true. Eugenics is a *** & they are going just as hard on us today as they have since they 'freed' us.
I rarely ever watch MTV & BET, but I remember them running commercials showing young minority girls looking down & out about being pregnant, and giving a toll free # that directed them to their local clinics that gave free or discounted abortions =[
That's why my donation to Haiti did not go thru the Red Cross because they & Planned Parenthood were both founded by Nazi's & their programs continue.
.
ay yall....this list is wrong as *** and i dont know why people spreadin it
first of all.....they dont even post a website to a source....then they dont even list the # of murders per 100.000 people
notice how it only has the "rank" then says "per 100,000
this is the real list
[link to external website removed]
click on the box that says "rate per 100,000"
Louisiana is # they average 8.84 murders ber 100,000
the top 15 are
[link to external website removed]
Louisiana 8.84 murders per 100,000 Maryland 8.75 murders per 100,000 Missouri 7.70 murders per 100,000 Alabama 7.25 murders per 100,000 South Carolina 6.79 murders per 100,000 New Mexio 6.75 murders per 100,000 Tennessee 6.56 murders per 100,000 Delaware 6.53 murders per 100,000 North Carolina 6.35 murders per 100,000 Georgia 6.34 murders per 100,000 Nevada 6.27 murders per 100,000 Mississippi 6.26 murders per 100,000 Arizona 6.23 murders per 100,000 Cali 5.83 Oklahoma 5.82
@Mactown_Georgia_Boy, the list is real, it was just released today. But it is data from 2007 so who knows what the current numbers are. Go to The Violence Policy Center, www vpc org. you can see the *** as a p d f at [link to external website removed] . j p g
This is based on Black *** rates. The list you posted represents the entire population with all races considered.
Well, every state besides a few in the extreme northeast (like vermont, new hampshire, maine), mountain west (idaho, wyoming, etc.) and upper great plains (north and south dakota, etc.) has a pretty fair amount of black people.....and all got some rough areas in some parts
the aim should be gettin out of those areas. fuuuck all that killin sh!t
and for the life of me i don"t get why summa yall nikkas base your assumptions on the first 48 hrs? i never seen chicago on first 48 or las vegas and they both got high murder rates never seen gary,in. either yall goof azz wannbee gangsters base yall *** off t.v.? lmao. first 48 CAN"T come in chicago and do know dayum show bad for buisness and publicity we were trying to get the olympics!
lol some of yall dont got sense for sh!t.
They arent saying Florida is "lower" than all other states.
Florida didnt make the list because they didnt conduct or participate in the survey.
Yall boys need to quit killin folks because they stepped on your flea market J'z or *** your hoodrat girlfriend anyway
real gangsters don"t want no dayum t.v. show coming and filming make the city look bad and keep folks from coming = no money we want folks to come to chicago to visit downtown and lakefront and spend some money in here fugg a first 48 or any other negative publicity. that and i"m a pro black dude for real pops was a panther and i hate black on black ANYWHERE these other races laughing at us i"m telling u cause i get subliminals quite often!
beautiful_gem
NYC wouldnt be there anyway...since its a city and not a state
This is the black murder rate
murder rate is done based off percentage.
NYC has alot of black people, Alaska doesnt. a few people getting killed in Alaska would make the rate jump high...since its not many black people there.
If there was a state with only 10 black people and 4 of them got killed then that state would be #1
I'M DEF NOT SURPRISED!... I'VE LIVED IN WEST PHILLY MY WHOLE LIFE! 45TH STREET! AND, IT IS CRAZY 'ROUND HERE!... IT AIN'T NO JOKE WHAT SO EVA! I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT AFTER LIVING AROUND HERE MY WHOLE LIFE... IT'S NOT A CITY IN THE WORLD THAT I'D BE SCARED TO WALK THROUGH! REAL RAP! MY BOYFRIEND'S SISTER JUST MOVED 2 OAKLAND CA... AND, SOME OF HER CALI FRIENDS WHO ALWAYS LIVED THERE WERE LIKE, "DON'T MOVE TO THIS HOOD OR THAT HOOD... IT'S "BAD" AROUND THERE!"... SHE SAID WHEN SHE WENT TO GO SEE THESE "SCARY" HOODS... THAT SH*T WAS LIKE THE BURBS TO US! HAHAHA! OMG! SO NOT SURPRISED!
IM NOT SURE BUT i THINK THE FLORIDA HISPANIC RATE IS OUTNUMBERING THE BLACK/AFROAMERICAN. THIS IS INTERESTING. I USED TO DO HEALTH RISK ASSESSMENTS FOR PA AND THEY ALWAYS SPOKE OF THE RISING CRIME RATE. I HOPE THIS DOESNT GET ANY WORSE, BUT WITH THEN CUTTING BACK ON POLICE AND WHAT NOT IT COULD...GREAT POST MTO.
PINKLADY86, lol you do realize that WE are only the United States and there plenty of places globally around the world that make our worst ghettos look like heaven
If you think livin in philly has you so confident you can walk through "any hood" in the world
then you need to try some of those cities in Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil, Jamaica, South Africa....*** a different ball game.
I still dont believe you'd walk through any hood in Philly (or anywhere else) at the WRONG time flashing the wrong sh!t
I wish people would stop trying to act all hard because their state is high on this list. Thats something you DONT want to be proud of.
and secondly, regardless of rankings and all that....you have ghettos and rough areas in several areas..of several cities/towns..in several states
a hood dude is going to be a hood dude...no matter where he is.... Mississippi is pretty low on that list and about half of the state is a black ghetto....especially Jackson...go tell those boys how tough and gangsta you are because your city was high on a list and see if that help you from getting robbed
How come some of yall too stupid to understand and know how to read statistics??
If a place has 100 blacks and 10 get killed it would have a higher rate than a place with with 1 million places and 200 get killed.
Thats how places like Alaska and Maine rank high. They dont hardly have black people.
Florida is not ranked, obviously because they didnt submit their information.
OK THIS *** REAL SAD YALL THINK THAT *** SWEET CUZ YALL STATE ON THIS *** AZZ LIST IF U AINT NEVA SEEN YOUR HOMEBOY GET BANGED UP OR YO CLOSEST COUSIN DIE ON NEW YEARS DAY BY HIS OWN GODBROTHER WHO WASNT NO RIDE OR DIE U WOULDNT BE THINKIN THAT *** SWEET THATS JUST TO NAME ONLY 2 SITUATIONS YALL DUMB AS *** I MEAN SOME *** DESERVE IT BUT HEY
LVHUNNIE, the reason a state like Nevada is high is because it doesnt have many blacks. It doesnt take many blacks to get killed for your black murder rate to increase when you dont have many blacks. This is not overall murder rate, just black, so hispanics, whites and everybody else is irrelevant. The main states that are really *** up are like Louisiana, because they have alot of blacks yet still are high, which means a ton of blacks have to be getting killed there.
who the *** cares what state is ranked 1 to 50. just know black folks are getting senselessly killed (usually by other black folks) all across this country everyday. so *** what state you reside in..what matters is what resides in your state of mind. if you're wicked you will help in the continuation of the planned extermination of black folk. and if you're righteous you will uphold peace and harmony amongst your brethren and you'll help your people progress no matter what state you reside in.
@ GREEKNESS: Thanks for askin Babe! To answer your question; I'm just day to day with it for the most part. Outside of my own hurt & pain, all I've learned is life goes on - Keep breathing. And that just breathing, is a gift in of itself. This is bigger than just my lost, Hell - it effects just about everyone I know who lives around me. I know now that I'm pro life - Quick to jump in someone *** about petty sh!t; or the perpetuation of it. I respect you alot! - Don't let the madness ravage your community... I mean what will our children be left with? Mad love to ya!
Man you gotta love Philly, I mean Killadelphia, with all the bad there is a lot of good there, can't forget countless summers spent in west philly, dell east, germantown. I know yall aint that *** or stupid to think just because Florida is not ranked that its sweet and dramaless. Your not telling me Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Vermont, Wyoming got on the list but Florida didn't, they don't even show what controls or factors make up their ranking decision. *** I bet Palm Beach County alone got more homi's than Iowa, Maine, Vermont, Idaho, Montana, and all them other weird states.
MTO idk where ya'll get this list from New Orleans have been holding the #1 rank for the past few years. Sometime the list are not always accurate in some states the police department don't give the feds a accurate report fear of lossing their state funds. Sources I obtain from my college instructor/ former LAPD cop, who now teaches in Texas.
True, it would b less killings if people would just keep to themselves, I know I do so I be cool most of the time. PA's not that bad, it just depends on what type of role you play, if you some typa goon,goblin or a gansta or even just around or provoke violence then youre most likely to kill or be killed, I think this goes for every place tho.
This is sad and it's even more sad at the fact that a lot of people are being ignorant and praising that their state is in the top ten. Don't y'all realize that this black on black crime nonsense is exactly what white people want. I don't think it'll get better especially with the decline of the economy. Innocent people and children are getting killed. Senseless murders... I'm 22 and I'm almost afraid to have children because it seems as if they don't even get a pass anymore. This is genocide, A black Holocaust. Instead of gas chambers we're using guns. I don't understand it.
I also don't understand why the ones that are so quick to pick up a gun and kill somebody over some *** are the "hard" ones and the "goons". That *** is weak to me. I'm not intimidated by the fact that you carry around a gun. That *** doesn't make you anymore of a man. The fact is, I value and love my life. That's the only reason why intimidation comes into play. This is Natural Selection and "Survival of the Fittest". Basically when we kill each other off, we're showing white people exactly how weak our race is. I'm from Ga and it's getting worse here.
SumpthinSimple, can you comprehend what you read? You asked me what does the WORLD have to do with it?? You said you "co-sign" pinklady86...then you tell me "we talking about the USA"
lol the very person that you are "co-signing" is the one who brought it up genius!
Pinklady86 didnt say USA, she said living in Philly's streets has her confident enough to walk through any hood in the WORLD...not USA.
Thats wdf Venezuela, Colombia, Jamaica, South Africa, etc. has to do with it....last time I checked...they were in this world and their ghettos are alot worse than any in the states
I'm still amazed at how many of you idiots dont realize that Florida not being ranked doesnt mean their crime is at a lower rate. It just means they didnt participate in this survey/didnt present their statistics.
lots of places in South Florida like Broward County, Palm Beach County and Dade County have to be some of the most dangerous hoods in America with those Haitian and Jamaican hoods.
Jacksonville, Orlando, and Tampa have several crime pockets too...as well as several smaller non-famous cities.
The sh!t aint to be proud of anyway, but just thought I'd drop the facts.
This is where they got that sh!t from [link to external website removed]
and it specifically says this
"the state of Florida, as in prior years, did not submit any data to the FBI Supplementary Homicide Report. Data from Florida was not requested individually because the difference in collection techniques would create a bias in the study results"
ITS ALL A LIE I WATCH THE FIRST 48 EVERY THURSDAY AND NOW THEY TALKING ABOUT MIAMI NOT RANKED. JUST SAY YOU GUYS LOST COUNT PLEASE... SO NOW YALL TELLING ME THEY AINT HANGING NEGROS IN MISSISSIPPI ANYMORE SO ITS RANKED 38 WITH 10% SOUNDS FUNNY THEY DOING IT IN PENNSYLVANIA.. SO YEAH I GUESS YALL BETTER RUN IF ITS ON TOP.
You would think with all the black people killing each other there wouldn't be any left, there must be a lot of us because every time I turn on the news some black guys killing some other black guys. I'm a black male and I don't have any black friends because I don't wanna die ahead of my time I guess that makes me soft, OK! I'm (SOFT) as a pillow just like whitey sitting in my house laughing at these idiots die (HARD). NO CARE FOR LIFE! WHAT A WASTE OF A HUMAN BEING!!!!!!!!!!!!
CBS NEWS & ASSOCIATED PRESS(OFFICIAL REPORT)STATES Missouri #1 & Pennsylvania #2 for black murder rate. Last year PA was #1 PA is almost always in the top 5 philly harrisburg pittsburgh chester and a few other smaller towns in PA have a real high black murder rate. As far as cities go almost every major cities has rough hoods thats why I don't get caught up in city murder rates Jus because Detroit or New orleans has a high murder rate doesn't make them the dangerous city bigger cities like New york chicago philly have way more people to account for.there should be a ranking by neighborhoods
