    Murder, rape and other violent crimes have soared this year in major US cities

    And YES, teh O'bama owns this.

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...imes-year.html

    Chicago has already had almost half the murders in 2016 that it had in 2015

    And LA has seen spikes too: murders were up by 27.5% in Jan and Feb

    But Oakland and Miami are experiencing a drop in violent crimes

    A study of 50 US cities and seven Canadian cities says crime is up overall

    Experts are struggling to agree on the reasons

    Some are blaming increasing numbers of guns and drugs

    Others say cops are scared to act in case they're put on YouTube

    I know, it's a tabloid, I've said as much.

    Feel free to point out where the discrepancies are.

    Nah - it might be 100% correct - I'm just saying the Daily Mail is not just tabloid - it's a total joke and often reports things which are totally different when examined by other media.

    Fair enough and I'm well aware of that.
