Believe me, I saw the chart. I forgot that all crimes which occur are documented and charted on SSP . I just think that if drugs and gangs are the prime contributer to that 55% jump in murders this year, then there is obviously a significant amount of crime going on and there is probably something to worry about. I love how people think that gang violence is separate from regular people violence. If your city let's that go unchecked long enough, innocent bystanders will die....just like that young girl in Toronto last year. Ottawa has gangs, drugs, guns, and murders too and I definately won't take any published decrease in crime rate to mean there's no problem, especially if our murder rate starts to spike.
