4 most murderous cities in world Mogadishu
Carracas
Juarez
New Orleans
I will agree with you as far as Juarez and Caracas. Can't really speak for Mogadishu. However, there are numerous cities in Mexico that have astronomical murder rates besides Juarez.
Tijuana is just one of the cities I have kept tally on for the year. They are around 350 or so for the year with a population slightly lower than Juarez.
The city of Culiacan, which is the capital of the state of Sinaloa, is actually the true drug capitol of Mexico. The city has a population of roughly 750,000, but they are at around 400-500 murders for the year so far. Its really hard to find current stats, but that city has always been one of the most violent in the whole world.
Police are holding a man suspected of fatally shooting his wife’s lover this morning after he walked in on the two at his west Oak Cliff home.
The 40-year-old suspect, whose name was not released because he hasn’t been arrested, returned home from work about 7:20 a.m. when he saw the 20-year-old man with his wife, Dallas police Sr. Cpl. Gerardo Monreal said.
The victim, Angelo Hernandez, died at the home in the 1200 block of South Montreal Avenue just east of Hampton Road.
No one else was injured.
Plus one That didn't make that news
past nums. for same timeframe
2009: 56, year total = 166
2005: 79, year total = 202
1991: 179, year total = 500
1989: 121, year total = 351
We need real numbers and were you got them from. "I think this...I think that" Ain't real data.
Your not going to be able to get "real numbers" til after the reporting year is over, since cases regularly get re-categorized, i.e. murder might be changed to manslaughter, unexplained death might be changed to murder etc.
Latest figures that I found. 35 slain this past weekend in Juarez. As of 5/18, 950 murders for the year.
I mentioned the Mexican state of Sinaloa in my previous post. As of 5/17, there have been 905 murders for the year with a population of 2.3 million. I would venture to say roughly half of that would be in the city of Culiacan.

... 35 in one weekend. That's how much Oakland has had in 5 months. smh... Then again, Oakland's about 1/3 the size of Ciudad Juarez but still...
Cleveland's at about 30-35 I believe, which is way down from last year.
The whole metro? I'm not sure I would guess around 55.
