New Orleans Ranks Highest in Crime, Survey Finds

St. Louis was #1 on this list in 2006 and #2 last year, and has been in the top 10 for as long as I can remember.

Officials for virtually every city at the top of this list wind up whining about the survey’s methodology. Those criticisms usually involve one of two reasons:

(1) Some cities like St. Louis cannot annex any more territory, so they’re “locked in” in geography. Some still can and have, like Nashville, Charlotte and Jacksonville. So it’s unfair to compare cities, because some cities can annex suburban-like lower crime areas. My response? Tough. CQ is analyzing cities of municipal incorporation, not “urban cores.”

(2) Different cities have different crime collection methodologies. My response? CQ analyzes certain violent and other quality of life crimes that are pretty cut-and-dry. If there is any “fudging,” it’s by the law enforcement authorities in these big cities, in the downward direction, to keep the official crime stats lower than they actually are.

In 2006, when St. Louis was Number One, Mayor Francis Slay, hypocritically and simultaneously, denounced Morgan Quitno (then the author of this study), denounced its methodology, then turned right around and used the #1 in crime ranking to lobby for numerous city spending programs based on the need to reduce crime, most of these programs were fluff (recreation centers) and would have accomplished nothing, and to lobby for Federal money or yet another Federal gun control law.

I would love to see a map with an overlay of the percentage of the population that voted for Obama and the crime rate.

Note the “statistic that dare not say its name” (apologies to Lord Alfred Douglas): The fact that all the “most dangerous” or highest crime rate cities have high concentrations of blacks. Not once in the original article is “race” mentioned. I guess we’re supposed to assume that all the cities surveyed are racially homogeneous (of some undefined race, that is), and that therefore race is irrelevant to the whole survey.

Who are these people trying to kid? And why does the press persist in tip-toeing around the question of large numbers of blacks equalling crime and violence?

If you want to understand why crime is so high anywhere Africans gather, go rent the movie “Ghosts of Cite Soleil.”

You will probably need to order it on-line, because most local video stores do not carry it. This is a documentary about life in Haiti. It shows the problems inherent with Africans — a child-like inability to think, plan, or use logic to solve problems. However, sex, irresponsible breeding, drugs, and violence abound. Also note the elevated self-esteem, and child-like manic-depressive personalities with extreme and rapid personality swings from pure dancing joy to violent hate and anger to deep fear and self-loathing. Also notice the pervasive “victim hood,” hero-worship of thugs, inability to delay and need for immediate satisfaction, and unreasonable expectations, such as thinking that they are going to be President of Haiti, or Rap Stars. Africans are children in men’s bodies, who respond to every problem with victim hood and threats of violence. This aggregation of traits is common among Africans where ever they are, and is responsible for their inability to maintain modern civilizations.

Now compare what would happen to a group of Europeans under similar circumstances. You would see a community that comes together with quiet and reasoned thought and planning to solve the problems, be they crime, disease, or poverty. These fundamental personality differences are gene-based and forever make it impossible for Africans to succeed in modern technological societies.

By the way, Haiti was the first Black Republic in the New World. They have had 200 years to build their paradise. What you see in the movie shows the ability for Blacks to create societies. What you see in Haiti is exactly what you see in Africa or New Orleans.

This is a sad commentary on the state of this nation. Of course, as usual, every city mentioned in the top of the list of most crime is a black peopled town and run by blacks. The proof of black inferiority/incompetance is easy for anyone to see who has eyes to see. The question is if people will believe what they see, or continue to live in their individual cocoons and keep denying the truth right before their eyes.

Tom Iron…

“New Orleans Ranks Highest in Crime, Survey Finds,followed by Camden, Detroit, St. Louis, and Oakland.”

The only thing I know for certain is that the high crime rates have nothing whatsoever to do with the huge numbers of blacks in each city.

Amd if the stats prove me wrong, then it’s because their ancestors were slaves 150 years ago and they are oppressed right now.

And, if that has nothing to do with it, then it’s because they’re poor and they can’t get a job, paying above $100,000 per year, even if they graduated from grade school.

And, if someone needs another reason, I’ll check the Trinity United Church’s web site and a couple of MSM types and get back to them with another reason just as valid.

I’m black American and we’re doing everything we can to end crime in New Orleans. Most of the crime committed in New Orleans is young men killing other young men due to drugs. This is a terrible problem in the city and hopefully the black community will wake up and realize it’s not whites that holding us back but bad pathological behavior.

A controversial ranking of U.S. cities’ crime rates

Controversial? What could be controversial about a statistical study?

The study’s publishers said they dropped previous characterizations of “safest” and “most dangerous” from this year’s study, calling those qualities “perceptions of the individuals who live in these communities.”

Oh, THAT’S what’s controversial! But statistics are about groups, not about “individuals!” they’re Of course, we Amreners can read between the lines, and we know that what they’re terrified of is the fact that it casts certain racial groups in a bad light. No wonder the crime rate is so bad in this country—it’s because of our neurosis about race. So much so that we are afraid to even quantify the problem.

Interesting!

I wonder whether there might be a pattern here! Now what do the cities of New Orleans, Camden, Detroit, St. Louis, and Oakland have in common?

I’m trying my best to find a common denominator of all these cities that are having problems with crime, but I’m not having much luck. Can anyone help me out, I’d really like to know!!!! Thanks,a White liberal!

I like the new format . This is off subject but I had to tell someone… My wife was in Albany , GA. getting her hair done when she was approached by a somewhat bedraggled young white man.He realized he was frightening her and told her he wouldn’t come any closer and meant her no harm, asking for a handout . He had lost his job and he and his family were living out of their car(there were children) . She gave him a twenty and he went back to his car and buried his face in his hands and wept . My wife then drove up to his car and gave him more money . This is what I have often said on this site , being white should be paramount to a religion . This is why I believe we could learn something from the Amish , the Mennonites and the Hutterites . We stand by and watch our white brothers and sisters fall right through the cracks . Of course ,technically , by US law , you cannot help them, not on the basis of their race . The whole thing just saddens me to no end . It is to some degree , one of our many , Achille’s Heels . It’s hard to see how we whites will ever survive it all , it seems we are surely on some kind of slow burn, self imposed suicide run with SAM(government) stoking the engine of our destruction with his laws and bills .All we want is to survive and be who we are , but apparently that is too much to ask in today’s politically correct climate.

Strange! Houston’s crime rate spiked from late 2005 until the end of 2006, but has been in decline just as New Orleans’ crime rates have escalated. I wonder if the two are corrolated.

New Orleans, Camden, Detroit, St. Louis, Oakland- what do they all have in common?

The study’s publishers said they dropped previous characterizations of “safest” and “most dangerous” from this year’s study…

Can’t believe Chicago is not ranked on top. We are having a record number of murders.

to sbuffalonative re DOJ stats:

“white” here means “caucasian & hispanic” - notice there is no mention of hispanics??

hispanics crime is are closer to black than to white crime, so the whole thing turn into an exercise in scaring us about black crime while “whitewashing” hispanic crime.

In the process, we never find out how little crime overall whites commit in the US.

We should be protesting this deceptoive practice and demanding real numbers form the DOJ!

Shocked, a liberal utopia, black mayor, black city council, and they have a high crime rate, shocking, must be Bush’s fault.

Good luck to you, but it’s been tried before and hasn’t worked. I guess all you can do is keep trying.

By the way, Haiti was the first Black Republic in the New World. They have had 200 years to build their paradise. What you see in the movie shows the ability for Blacks to create societies. What you see in Haiti is exactly what you see in Africa or New Orleans.

An often overlooked fact is that the Dominican Republic and Haiti are on the SAME ISLAND!!! To my knowledge, the D.R. does not have all of these problems that the Haitains seem to bring on themselves, we never hear of Dominican Republic Boat People. I don’t know what the racial composition of the D.R. government is but I suspect a greater white involvement in it. Still, same island, same agricultural prospects, a deep water port (is it still?) same weather, just more blacks I think.

I notice that the names of these cities all have vowels in their names! could that be it?

I saw the movie Ghosts of Cite Soleil. I’ve also traveled extensively in the Third World. One thing that struck me in both cases is the fact that many Third World cities and towns have raw sewage flowing down the streets. Sometimes its literally rivers of raw sewage (composed of exactly what you flush down the toilet) flowing between houses, where barefoot children play and eat. In these places few have jobs, and many spend all day long sitting, talking and arguing, but no-one fixes the problem of raw sewage, outside their house.

Now compare what would happen if poor Whites were in that situation. Within 24 hrs, teams of men would be assigned to dig sewer lines. Within 1 week, these lines would connect to simple and inexpensive sewage-treatment facilities (such as reed-bends for bio-remediation), prior to release of the treated sewage back into the environment.

Likewise, construction would begin in the mountains on dams and pipelines to bring in fresh, clean water. In a few months that slum would have both clean, drinkable water, and efficient sewage collection and treatment. The same thing would happen for electricity, schooling, crime, grassy parks with clean playgrounds, etc. But that is European thinking. Unemployed Third Worlders would rather sit in raw sewage all day, complaining about how the White man stole their wealth from them. Three hundred years of colonialism and slavery, you know.

“To my knowledge, the D.R. does not have all of these problems that the Haitains seem to bring on themselves, we never hear of Dominican Republic Boat People.

It seems like half of the population of the Dominican Republic is living in New York City! It’s true that many of the people of the Dominican Republic are of mixed race. Of course, whites and near whites run everything in the Republic. However, blacks are a significant part of the population. Dominicans, even though most have some black blood, are some of the most racist people are earth. They pride themselves on having lighter, “mellow” skin, “good hair” and white features. Money can get dark blacks social acceptance but they don’t really like them.

I live in Shreveport, La. I have lived in Louisiana all my life. I am surprised Shreveport is not on the list. We now have a black mayor and a black police chief, but our crime has increased. I have two children and I do not want them to grow up in this area. Is there a place where Whites are the majority? I know there is. I feel like its time for me to move on. I also realize when whites are the majority there is less crime and alot less violent crime. I just want to live somewhere safe and I owe that to my children. I hate that the areas I grew up, which were once thriving are now crime riden areas you don’t dare go to. I’m sure others feel this way. Where can we go to live without fear of violence. Where can we go were we can hold onto our Christian European culture?

Blacks are highly successful, genetically. In the same period when the white percentage of the world’s population has been cut in half, theirs has doubled. They have acquired plenty of money and lots of white women. There is no reason for them to change their behavior.

Todd Kidd-

I’m black American and we’re doing everything we can to end crime in New Orleans.

Everything except, of course, stop committing crimes.

Perhaps you, personally, are doing everything you can to end crime in N/O, and if so I salute you and wish you all the best. But as a community, you are not. Nor are you apparently interested in doing so. The crime, bastardy, joblessness and over all degenerate lifestyle of those who contribute to this squalid state of affairs, and thereby force it upon those who do not, can only be changed if the degenerate element is either reformed or removed.

Best of luck with that.

Flyingtiger:

Can’t believe Chicago is not ranked on top. We are having a record number of murders.

I believe the study deals in per capita crime rates, as opposed to raw numbers. More crimes are committed in Chi-town than N/O, but it is also several times N/O’s size.

Posted at 9:53, God bless your wife, she is truly an angel. And I whole-heartedly agree with you. I am not an overly emotional person, but I am a father and grandfather. I tears at my heart to know that there are thousands of good people (especially whites) that are struggling to make ends meet. We are wasting billions of dollars overseas for nothing while our own go hungry. This is rediculous. And it makes no difference which party gets into office, they answer to the elites and our people will continue to go hungry. As I said, you should be very proud of your wife, she is a saint amongst the sinners.

I live in one of the cities that is highly rated (top ten)for violent criminal activity. Without a doubt muder, rape, theft, etc. are relgated mainly to the ethnic enclaves of the city where poor blacks and whites live. One could make the argument that, if these areas were economically prosperous, the severity of crime would diminish. The more affluent blacks have fled the ghetto to the surburbs where the fear of being a victim is infinitely less. More than a racial matter, it does seem more realistic to view criminality as one of cultural deprivation. Yet, when studying the habits and crime rates in Asian communities, many of whom are recent immigrants with few resources, we see that violent crime is negligeable. The predominance of violence in certain communities (black for certain)is entrenched, if not intransigent, possibly for “racial” or genetic reasons, partially for the lack of adequate training in life skills (that the schools are not providing). We all know the arguments about broken families, the absence of fathers, unemployment, hopelessness, and the prevalence of cheap drugs as motivating forces in the marginalization of certain ethnic groups. The problem is always: this being so, what on earth can we do to “pacify” the inner city and make life for many secure. If we give up, the major cities will continue to decline. In this context, we all suffer. This, by the way, is also happening in Europe.

I was going to type up a formula here to find a good estimation, but it became apparent, with a loop being set in motion, that I don’t know how.

What I wanted to do was place the hispanic crime rate midway between the white and black crime rate, but the mentioned loop came up, which I don’t know what to do with, but am positive can be dealt with by some method not known to me.

Are there any readers knowledgeable about math who might do what I intended, or correct me about it being possible?

You might try using a proxy, such as by using Proxy.org:

http://proxy.org/

When using it, if indeed they are blocking access to certain websites by those located in certain areas, you might, I am not certain, need to select a proxy located in the US or a likely unblocked country.

So if this is the most crime ridden city, why rebuild it? What’s there to rebuild but the continuation of more crime.

Reply to todd kidd;

Funny how the black community is always “doing everything” it can to stop crime, but somehow never, well, STOPS crime.

@Todd Kidd—

One thing the black community can do is stop listening to instigators such as Je$$e Jack$on and Al $harpton. There also has to be a change in mindset—blacks who pull themselves up by their bootstraps instead of wanting everything handed to them aren’t Uncle Toms, they’re trying to be decent people. You’re dealing with a group that thinks that to be “black” is to act like a hoodlum.

I have respect for black people (or people of ANY race) who work their tails off and make something of themselves. I don’t have any respect for thugs who are content to suck at the government’s teat and loot whenever disaster strikes or waste FEMA money on “hookers and blow.”

You have to do the best you can with what you have.

I have family in Oakland, and I know Oakland very well. My relatives are good people. However, their liberalism blinds them to what they’re dealing with. It could literally get them killed.

They did the best with what they had, they paid for hookers and bought crack, looted weapons, sold MREs dropped by the military (the stuff was all over E-Bay) and shot at police officers and N.O. black police officers shot at other police trying to help. The best with what they had all right, and the gifts just keep on coming.

“I would love to see a map with an overlay of the percentage of the population that voted for Obama and the crime rate.”

Why? Voting for Obama is not a CAUSE of crime. A better map would overlay the black population with the crime rate.

Posted by Free America:
“So if this is the most crime-ridden city, why rebuild it?”

It is critical to rebuild New Orleans in order to re-isolate the problem. Before Katrina, many of those people had never been outside Orleans Parish. The problem demographic was well-contained within the city.

Houston, Lafayette, Hattiesburg and Jackson all changed dramatically (for the worse) when they became ‘blessed’ with Katrina refugees from N.O.. New Orleans had an insular culture that had been brewing since long before the Louisiana Purchase. Even the ‘whites’ (except for the ‘Uptown’ types living along St. Charles Avenue) were not particularly American in their heritage or their approach to life. Concepts like ‘Cause and Effect’ or ‘Actions and Consequences’ were alien to New Orleanians.

Too, New Orleans has long absorbed the bad seeds of the Deep South and the Heartland. Bad kids went there to degenerate. The city was like a giant cyst. Katrina burst that cyst. I met a couple from South Mississippi who told me that all over their area, drug-addict derelict kids who’d been banished by their families (& ended up in N.O.) had been welcomed back-home following the hurricane. Suddenly, the peaceful countryside (mostly Scots-Irish Fundamentalist) was experiencing a crime wave.

We used to live on Lake Ponchartrain’s North Shore. The place was full of the whitest, kindest, most well-behaved people we’d ever known. Then Katrina happened, and New Orleans suddenly swamped the Northshore natives with a nasty new demographic. St. Tammany Parish, as we had known it, was gone. Just gone.

Within months, at the barber or buying pastries, we’d hear things like “Oh, it’s so nice to see some real Northshore people! Do you remember what a nice place this used to be? Remember how polite everybody was?”

Eventually, the ‘Old Northshore’ types we knew used the contacts they’d made during the weeks when they were displaced by Katrina, got positions out-of-state, and moved. So we moved, too.

The people we fled were New Orleans’ loud, rude rich. I feel for those in less pricey burgs, who are having to deal with N.O.’s dysfunctional lower strata. And even more, I feel for those in America’s heartland who sheltered Katrina refugees and in so doing became victims of ‘Katrina crimes’.

I am surprised Atlanta is not right up there. I have lived outside of that wonderful, liberal city nearly all of my life (I’m almost 50), and it has certainly ranked among the most-crime ridden cities at times.

To ENwhiten, about blacks being highly successful — I’m certain it never occured to you, and would never occur to you, that the only reason the black race has flourished (to the extent that it has, although it’s still at the bottom of life’s ladder) is because they are situated within a White, affluent society; a society created BY White people, FOR White people. Blacks, having been brought here by a miniscule percentage of greedy, imprudent, short-sighted men, were emancipated on OUR soil and now we’re stuck with them. The black race cannot thrive on its own and would never have what it now has if we had left them in sub-Saharan Africa where they belong.

But as I stated, it would never occur to you to acknowledge that truth. Indeed, would you even understand it? I doubt it.

Another question: what do Mission Viejo, Newton, and
Brick Township have in common?
