PHILADELPHIA -
FBI statistics Monday confirmed what big cities like Philadelphia, Houston, Cleveland and Las Vegas have seen on the streets: Violent crime in the U.S. is on the rise, posting its biggest one-year increase since 1991.

In Philadelphia, homicides jumped from 330 in 2004 to 377 in 2005, a 14 percent increase, according to the FBI. Murders climbed from 272 to 334 in Houston, a 23 percent rise, and from 131 to 144 in Las Vegas, a 10 percent increase.

What this doesn't mention is that on the west coast, Oakland has had just under twice the number of homicides as last year, i believe over 60 now. When gun control gets slack, the economy is crap, and stupidity is not only rampant but leading the political discourse.....ya shoot first and ask questions later. 1991...hmmm..i dare say a president by the name of Bush was in office then as well...
