Party like it's 1999. You know, the year before the dot com bubble burst.

24th and 25th homicides last night for the year so far.  Not even record freezing temps gonna keep this town down!

[Iormlund]

I think we get something like 10 homicides a year here (for roughly 700k inhab). The closest I've ever been to one was when they found the walled in corpse of one of the neighbours down the hall. Found the killer back in Cuba IIRC.

Look at all those downward shifts in murder rates, well apart from a couple places.

Though apparently New York had 22 murders in the first 20 days.

That only puts you at around 1/10 of Baltimore's rate per capita.

No official numbers for 2013 yet, but in 2012 there were 36 homicides in Austria (pop. ca. 8 Million). (Or 56, according to wiki ... ).

Cannibals weren't hungry last year?

Germans are the cannibals. Austrians lock girls and family in basements.
