I'm sorry, but the murder rate in Milwaukee, has nothing to do with this thread.

To put this in some perspective, in 2014 (the year I can get number for) Las Vegas (and I believe that being the City of Las Vegas) was ranked 28th for violent crime for cities with a population of 250K or greater.

Does this really worry people? The majority of murder victims in this city are not just innocent bystanders. They're people who engage in risky behaviors and choose to remain in that lifestyle. Don't be a drugdealer, a pimp, or part of an abusive relationship, and chances are this will not affect you.

Yeah, this doesn't matter that tourists are getting killed on LVBS on a weekly basis. NO crime in my neighboorhood, and likely the dead knew each other.

You're far more likely to get hit by a car than shot or stabbed. We need a class on how to prioritize in schools...

If you didNT get the point Squibb... or whoever didn't understand it... I'll have to try and lay it outo more simply...

There are many cities experiencing a surge in crime... including Vegas... some cities experiencing it considerably worse than LV.

Doesn't make what happens here ok... just understand that most major cities in the US aren't some kind of Utopia that Vegas is not.

And Milwaukee is 100% dependant on how many tourists a year? Don't get me wrong, all tourists that come here are scum, I take pleasure in seeing them getting killed, but its not good for business.
