Lucky Number 13!

Credit where credit is due, Chicongo has done it again! For the 13th year in a row, and yes you read that correctly, Chicago won the honor as the city with the most murders in the country for 2024.

2024 Homicide Rankings: Chicago, St. Louis Lead Nation Yet Again

Chicago was once again the nation’s homicide capital in 2024 with 573 murders – the 13th year in a row that the Windy City has suffered more murders than anywhere else in the country. New York, Houston, Philadelphia and Los Angeles rounded out the top five for most murders. 

St. Louis was the nation’s other murder capital when based on homicides per capita. The Gateway City suffered 52.9 homicides per 100,000 residents, marking the third year in a row St. Louis has held that title. Memphis was in 2nd-place with 38.0 homicides per 100,000. 2024 marks the second year in a row the city has been the runner-up. Rounding out the top five were Baltimore with 35.6 murders per 100,000, New Orleans with 34.1 and Detroit with 32.1.

The Woundy City doesn’t come anywhere close on a per capita basis as Chicago is such an heavily populated city, with a paltry 21.5 murders per 100,000 residents according to Wirepoint….

While there is a lot of good information on that site, what is missing is not surprisingly data on race although a number of commenters pointed this out. Fortunately the good folks at Hey Jackass! did that work for us and Chicago once again is a town where murder is mostly a non-White thang…

As most murder is interracial, and when it is not it is overwhelmingly black on White, it is a safe assumption that at least 75% of all murders in Chicago are committed by blacks with an additional 22% committed by various mestizos. Whites and Asians and “others” account for barely 3%.

You won’t hear this pointed out by “black Lives Matter” grifters or “civil rights” leaders. Nor from Al Sharpton or Benjamin Crump or black clergy. They will piss and moan ’til the cows come home about midnight basketball or reparations but nary a word about blacks killing each other by the thousands across the fruited plains. Yea and I sayeth, wherever two or more 2Gs are gathered, there is finna be some shootin’.

So congrats to Chicongo for making it a baker’s dozen. Here’s to making 2025 the 14th in a row as champs!

    Not a ton of surprises on the lists, except the unexpectedly low numbers that Albuquerque is putting up. Last time we were passing thru that little cesspool we stopped at the “sell CCP stuff cheap supercenter”. It was “guarded” by at least a squad sized group of civilian-super-soldiers decked out in body armor, fatigues and long guns plus with hand guns as back ups. And lots and lots of hair gel of course. Probably a little dianabol as well judging by appearances. And some kind of apparently up-armored m-rap-looking thing out front. Having seen that I assumed they were leading the league of blue hell holes in state-sponsored violence. Do better, Albuquerque! We believe in you!

    I demand a recount! Where is Denver or Aurora? What a disgrace, you can make the news for illegals both regular and extra gang strength, but you don’t make the murder capitol list. WTF try harder slouchers or we will get a better class of trigger-happy scum. Don’t make me bring BBQ and the boys up from Haiti to show you how it’s done.

      Seeing how the unofficial “home” of the CIA is Denver/the front range for the past 20 to 30 years, I’m guessing the numbers were “massaged” so that property values aren’t diminished. Spook behind every spook from Ft Collins to probably Pueblo by now. Also why human trafficking and courts unlawfully stealing children is such a problem there. Especially in ftc and boulder.

        Funny, I didn’t realize the front range of CO was so infested with feds. Of course I haven’t been to Colorado since about 1993, and it was still a nice place then (though Denver was already kind of shitty by my recollection, it was nothing like it is now based on what I hear). Just one more reason for me to avoid the place now, which is a damned shame because it has some truly exceptional scenery in its non-urban areas.

          Federal Center, USGS, Rocky Flats, Martin Marietta and Sunstrand and Ma Bell back in the day, Rocky Mountain Arsenal (defunct), and drum roll…Denver International Airport replete with underground bunkers. And who knows what else. Its how they covered over the odor of the feedlots in northern Colorado-with the stench of feds.

            Makes sense once you list off all the agencies and contractors with a presence there, some of which I was aware of. Like I said, my last outing to Colorado was in 1993, I was 19, and most of that trip was spent on the back range. I was certainly not as knowledgeable of, or focused on, government bullshit then as I’ve become since.

    Well, we all know that statistics are racist and this just PROVES it. Given the ‘boys proclivity for missing their intended targets and hitting innocent bystanders instead, I’d say that most of those “homicides” are actually accidental deaths. Remove those from the numbers and you get a mostly peaceful major blue city with a lot of unlucky ex-citizens. Voila! No murder capital here.

    To quote Scatman Crothers in the movie “Silver Streak”: “Hello Chicago, Hello! Gotta drink to that!”

    The thing a lot of people don’t realize about St. Louis regarding crime stats is that there is an odd poltiical structure to the metro area. There is St. Louis County, which is compromised of dozens of municipalities which each have their own governments, and thereby many have seperate police forces and in turn seperate crime statistic reporting. Then there is the independent City of St. Louis, which is also it’s own county and municipality, in a sense.

    The City of St. Louis has been losing population for decades (since the 50’s, starting with “White flight” to the suburbs of St. Louis County, in order to escape the then burgeoning 2G problem in the city). This left the population of the city skewed more heavily towards blacks (and more recently other minorities that arrived as “immigrants” because of the less expensive housing there).

    Since The City of St. Louis is it’s own separate political subdivision within the metro area, has a smaller population than St. Louis County’s municipalities (in aggregate), and is much “darker” in it’s demographic makeup, it’s reported crimes statistics look much worse. And they are bad, no doubt. But if one combines reported crime stats of the city and St. Louis County, suddenly the per capita rates don’t look nearly as bad. Of course no one in the county wants this combined reporting, as it makes the county’s crime numbers look worse that they do when broken out seperately. Therefore, the city’s numbers get reported on their own, and make headlines because there are a greater number of crimes concentrated among a smaller population.

    Add to this the continued suburban sprawl diluting the population of the the city, and even St. Louis County, and the surrounding counties (Jefferson, St .Charles and Franklin are all adjacent to St. Louis County, and are all gaining population, while even STL County is now losing population) and this trend will continue until the St Louis City implodes from lack of population to maintain it’s tax base, which is already becoming an issue.

    All of which is to say that this is another situation in which government provided numbers are “massaged” to achieve a particular end. No surprise there.

    Once more more Arthur yo never fail to amuse and enlighten. The “woundy City”. The Windy City is now redundant. I truly feel sorry for some old Combat Vet living there. Hearing all that gunfire, he may have flashbacks to Vietnam, Grenada, Iraq, or Afghanistan. It sounds like you a major Firefight between these goofy people.

    What really sucks? All of those cities use to be good places to live with some minor exceptions like a ghetto, red light district, etc. Virtually all were clean & had great, safe ethnic neighborhoods, German, Irish, Italian, Slavic, etc. By the way, that was 100 years ago.

      Yes! Whites continue to cede large parts of the country to the illicit, Black/Minority, or Diverse with no benefit. Pretty soon it will be traveling from one safe “island” to another through bandit/criminal territory.

    “ most murder is interracial”
    Typo. Most murder is INTRAracial. Negroes killing other negroes, or Whites killing Whites.

    Dats Wayciss! I prefer to call Chicongo, Chiraq. Just a personnel preference, both names work.

    I guess the tip of the day, avoid all cities if possible. I do.

      When rahm emmanuel was mayor a while back, I took to calling it Vietrahm. Of course, that joke expired with the end of his term. Then they got black Beetlejuice as mayor (lori lightfoot) which was a source of much jocularity in itself.
