New Orleans population 350,000 Chicago population 5.2 million. If we were Juarez size, we would have 320 murders right now. Juarez I believe is at 700 murders right now....Summer has not even started yet

i doubt the weather affects Juarez crime rate, i mean its warm all year.

Actually Jaurez has cooler winters then new orleans. Winter has an effect on our murders and it is warm here all year. Summer is just crazy hot.

Juarez usually has one snow per year. It is actually farther north then New Orleans. Yes it has milder winters then the northern U.S but is not always hot. I've been there before. In fact, New Orleans has a warmer climate then Juarez in Winters.

New Orleans does indeed have their problems. But not nearly at the scope of these cities.

That's false. In Cleveland it certainly does.

No, no, and no again. You are wrong. There are far worse cities than New Orleans in the world. Just no. LOL

You are sadly misinformed with a lot of your information... I mean you thought Chicago's population was 5.2 million.. when it clearly isn't. The internet is your friend, use google and look up stats before spewing hearsay.
