Yes, yes, yes. Besides being the crime capital of America, THEcesspool is also the unreported crime leader, hands down---the resorts rarely get the authorities involved with on site crime. A formal 86ing suits their needs for the high volume of crime committed at the resorts.

I still think crime stats are bogus. I bet CA crime is higher because of under reporting.

It happens. But you have to cook the books a whole lot to make any real difference. And only differential cooking counts. If you cook like the other guy it all washes.

You don't "cook" by making a large jump in robberies....

So you think a state with 36+mil people has more crime than a state with 2.5mil people--say it ain't so.

Per capita or absolute?

Then again you don't know what that means do you?

I was being sarcastic

Crime stats to me are bogus, every city has crime. Crime stats just add to the equation but does not tell the whole story. Every one has their experiences with crime and will affect your opinion. Some stats say NV is one of the most dangerous state (I think its #2) but if you look at the most dangerous cities, 4 california cities are on the top 25 and no NV cities? Go figure? Per capita numbers? Absolute numbers?? who cares!, I certainly dont care because it has nothing to do with me feeling safe or unsafe. Its all numbers to me that are not accurate (high or low)
