Liberal cities like New York City? A city that had 404 murders in 1928 (the first year the number was tabulated) and just 335 last year, despite the addition of an extra 2.5 million people over that time? A city that had 539 murders a year when Giuliani was in his last year of office? Or were you talking about Los Angeles, which had a murder rate of 6.3 per 100,000 last year instead of 34.2 per 100,000 in 1980. Or maybe you're talking about San Diego, where Democrats outnumber Republicans 42% to 25% - - after all, we are the safest of the ten most populous cities in the United States and only had 32 murders out of our 1.35 million people last year.
Your post doesn't even have a point. You don't think Americans know which cities are problematic in regards to violence????
Most Americans do know the problem is with some, dense urban liberal cities. The problem is liberals try to use those tiny problem areas to push their gun grab agenda across the entire country.
There have been 46 killings in Boston so far in 2016, six more than in 2015.
I don't live anywhere near Boston but our entire state is liberal and is not high crime. The crime is in the druggie areas. Something does need to be done about that--but it's not exactly "exploding with crime."

OP was just being PC. He should have put Liberal Minority Cities in heading.
