Because western European cities are vastly less violent: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/peter-dreier/lets-hold-off-cel....

Baltimore, where I live, has 25x the per-capita murder rate of London. Chicago has 13x the murder rate. New York, the safest large city in the country, has 3x the murder rate.

B-more the city that bleeds.(I live there too) That said, the murders usually occur in the same bad areas over and over. If you live in a good area, you notice it only on the evening local news.

I don't get the connection, it's not cops being killed at a higher rate.
