As you can plainly see, Chicago is 28th on this list.

Someone should tell Tucker Carlson. Chicago is Tucker's favorite, because Barrack Obama was from Chicago. But what you can see, and what Tucker doesn't want you to see, is there are plenty of whitebread cities above Chicago on this list.

@Suzianne

Nice twisted stats.

Per 100 thousand? OK now show the population of those cites and the demographics.
Also provide the racial stats of the victims/perps

You're using leftist politically correct BS stats.
Use real stats.

Chicago, the nation's third-largest city, leads the nation with 739 homicides as of the end of November, up 3% from 2020, according to Chicago Police Department crime data. Chicago's deadliest year remains 1970 when there were 974 homicides.

Chicago broke that record by the end of 2021

@Suzianne

What are the "whitebread" cities above Chicago on your list?

If I said "blackbread" you would snitch on me like a little rat.

Facts?

Her list is "averages per 100k people"
Averages are not facts.
That's just the leftists way to avoid the truth.

Understanding statistics for the beginner:

A rate is a way to compare samples of different sizes. So not two of the cities have the same number of residents. A way to compare is to take the number of murders and the number of residents and make a quotient. Now you have murders per 100'000 population. regardless of the size of the city.

"How to Lie with Statistics" Darrell Huff.

Chicago is an example, it doesn't have to be the worst example to still count as an example.

@shavixmir said
No. You can’t directly compare a city the size of Chicago to Wakefield Arkansas where 3 people and a pig live.

So, you use % of population to get a rough comparison.

@ponderable said
Well I replied to a pots where the poster seemed not to have understood that a "rate" is a fact (even if of second order).

Chigaco is a city with a very high (in Germany I would say astronomical) murder rate. (fact)
It is not the city with the highest rate (also fact).
Rates are a useful tool to compare numbers (also a fact).

So we have no beef . Do we?

@wajoma said
Yes and No shag doody. If there were a shooting in your 'example' town of 3 citizens and one person died '% of population' would not be very helpful. We understand what you're trying to say but you've fumbled it retardedly badly.
