1.1 a day

The disturbing news from home is that murder rate for this rate for the city of Philadelphia has already hit 90, an increase of nearly 25% on last year.

I am sure that none of these 90 souls where killed by guns but rather they were killed by people with guns. Makes all the difference doesn't it?

The Philadelphia papers even have a special online section devoted to violence in the city. It is full of cheerful stuff.
