how many of the 355 or so mass shootings this year in the U.S. involved Muslims? Possibly just this one. Plenty involved Christians, including that White Supremacist Dylann Roof.
That's right, and there were not only that particular White Supremacist (like many on this site) who committed mass murder, including the targeted killing of a state Senator, whom he asked for, out of his ideology, but also at least one Christian mass murderer, in addition to the abortion clinic killer, who killed out of his Christian ideology as well. All of these actions are heinous but the Muslims, of which there are 1-1.5 billion on the planet, are not exactly our biggest danger.

BTW, Chicago is *not* a dangerous city on any measure. If you think it is, you lead a very sheltered life. It has some dangerous neighborhoods, but overall it's not even close to the top of the list, even just among US cities.
I lived in Chicago & Chicagoland for years. Downtown, Lincoln Park & a couple other areas aren't dangerous. The rest is very dangerous.

Also compare these rates to Singapore. Singapore (pop 5.1 million) has a murder rate of 0.3 per 100,000 people. Singapore is basically a huge international port. In this context, you would expect a huge drug, prostitution, rape and murder rate. No... Not at all... Women can run safely alone on the streets at 11pm...
Why?
Singapore is the Geneva of Asia... Clean, educated population, safe... A wonderful country (except that it has no water supply, oops...).
Why can't the US strive to become that.
74.1% of residents were of Chinese descent, 13.4% of Malay descent, 9.2% of Indian descent, and 3.3% of other (including Eurasian) descent.
Singapore has a good kind of diversity, void of the murdering kind

Actually the US is number 4. It has 4 cities in the top 50. Only Brazil (19), Mexico (10) and Columbia (5) have more violent cities.
Zero European cities...
Seriously, something should be done about this extreme violence in the US. Certainly they have the means to do something, so it's obviously a lack of "want". The US is a real outlier in terms of industrialized countries.
Maybe the international community should do something about this and impose some sort of sanctions on the US until they put in place concrete solutions to this problem. The international community can't simply turn a blind eye to this real problem.
The problems are blacks and illegals. Stats and facts say it repeatedly.
