lol I Guess you still don't know how to read. And by the way the previous years are the numbers through October first.

All three of these cities include traffic fatalities in the murder total even though they do not get included in the final number they report to the FBI, Dallas include all traffic fatalities, the other two only include intox manslaughter.


for Dallas learn to read the Modus operandi on the report.

Why keep a tally on such negativity?

I know, what a morbid and sad topic. It seems like some of you get off on how many murders your city has, like it makes it more interesting or more important.............

Right, we should just ignore unpleasant facts and pretend everything is just great. I've always said, the less information and understanding we have as a society, the better off we will be!

I had a question, the ones that I put in bold are those the entire years total or is that for the same time compared to the 2010 numbers?
Like for 2010 the year isn't over yet, so Dallas has had 207, Houston 184, & Philadelphia 241 but the ones for the previous years are the entire years total or just the same time frame?
