Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn says the numbers show a dramatic decline in violent crime.
According to jsonline.com:
· Homicide, 33 in 2008, compared with 48 in 2007.
· Rape, 88 in 2008, compared with 124 in 2007.
· Robbery, 1,392 in 2008, compared with 1,607 in 2007.
· Aggravated assault, 1,703 in 2008, compared with 2,210 in 2007.
Still, it begs the question:
Do you think Milwaukee is a safer city?
I don’t.
