1. Chicago says

"Amateurs."

2. Umm no

Unless you live in Chicago, you don’t know what you’re talking about. And you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. Now if you had said Detroit or St Louis, that would have been more accurate 😉

4. Chicago had 575 homicides last year compared with 326 in St Louis and 252 in Detroit

Chicago had as many as St Louis and Detroit combined

5. is that weighed for population?

At any rate, the violent crime epicenter of this country is still the lower Mississippi valley - Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana

6. Of course not. And that poster knows it. What do they say about people and statistics?

Chicago 2,697,000 population

St. Louis 293,310 population

Detroit 632,464 population

Chicago is not even in the top ten per capita.

7. I do know that my rural county had 2 homicides last year in the entire county

One was a murder -suicide. 1 homicide for every 22,500 residents.

In comparison

Chicago had 1 homicide for every 4690 residents or 5x the number

St Louis had 1 homicide for every 900 residents or 25x the number

Detroit had 1 homicide for every 2500 residents or 9x the number

Washington DC was the same as Detroit

3. Spring break now means gunfire.

Because young men can do anything without a pistol.
