http://urbantitan.com/10-most-danger...world-in-2011/

Dear lord, why is everyone bashing St Louis nowadays? First it was that bogus report last year that claimed STL was the most dangerous city in America (misrepresented data) and now this? I'm sorry, but there is no way we are more dangerous than Mogadishu or Santo Domingo. The person who wrote this listed only two sources and one of them was wikipedia...this is simply irresponsible journalism. Somebody needs to take this garbage off the internet before people start taking it seriously.

You know what is funny is that the photo they use for St. Louis is actually Chicago (The flag of Chicago is on his jacket)! I think there was a typo so in fact Chicago is the 3rd most dangerous in the world!

All legitimate news stories have three exclamation points in the headline.

Honestly, though, why did you even bother posting this? This is just some guy's blog. Who cares?
