Not suprised to see Memphis well represented, as well as south Chicago next to the housing projects.

[Synopsis]

Wow, Chicago sure is over represented. I'm surprised Detroit is only on there once.

Little Rock always seems to have a crime problem as well. I'm glad there are no Oklahoma representatives on that list.

Where is New Orleans and Gary Indiana on that list though???

[stillkit]

Oklahoma may not have made that list, but I'd still be careful on the near north side of Tulsa.

Is there a point you're trying to make, or are you simply trolling?

I think it's a troll, just manages to skip around enough and be 'reasonable' enough to keep from being banned outright.

The point I was trying to make is how could you score high as a great place to raise families when Oklahoma the some of the highest rates of divorce, unwed teenage mothers, and online porn purchases? That was my only point.

As to my being a "troll". I can post in any forum I wish as long as I follow the rules. There is no "resident" requirement and I don't have to post news/links/comments that flatter you.
