London’s murder rate has increased to the point that it has surpassed New York City’s. I wonder what might have caused that? Other than immigration, of course, which we are reliably informed does nothing except benefit the economy.
London’s murder rate has overtaken New York City’s numbers for the first time ever, according to a new report.
February marked the first month in history books that London had more murders than the American city with a total of 15 homicides. Out of the 15 killed, nine were aged 30 or younger.
In March, there were 22 murders, which is likely to match if not beat out New York’s numbers.
The victims:
- Sadiq Mohamed, 20, Kentish Town
- Abdikarim Hassan, 17, Kentish Town
- Josef Boci, 30, Greenwich
- Seyed Khan, 49, Ilford
- Rotimi Oshibanjo, 26, Southall
- Promise Nkenda, 17, Canning Town
- Sabri Chibani, 19, Streatham Common
- Lewis Blackman, 19, Kensington
- Hasan Ozcan, 19, Barking
- Hannah Leonard, 55, Swiss Cottage
- Kwabena Nelson, 22, Tottenham
- Mark Smith, 48, Chingford
- Bulent Kabala, 41, Enfield
- Saeeda Hussain, 54, Ilford
- Juan Olmos Saca, 39, Peckham
I can only conclude that it must be the evil guns. Or racism. But regardless of what the cause might be, it is rather remarkable to observe how people continue to be genuinely surprised at yet another failure of the Magic Dirt to transform human behavior.
Fortunately, the inhabitants of Londonistan can be secure in the knowledge that their city is increasingly diverse, and therefore, stronger. And speaking of the joys of vibrancy and diversity, Germany is growing stronger as well:
Horror on streets of Germany: State of emergency declared as 80 men brawl with MACHETES. Police were called to the Altmarkt area of the city over reports of the mass bawl. Officers used CS gas to control the brawling men.
The scores of men were also using telescopic batons in the fight in Druisburg, which is on the west of Germany. Police said they were spat at and had objects hurled at them. Around 50 people were arrested and onlookers captured the brutality in shocking photos.Those arrested refused to explain what sparked the fight and 30 people were later released.
A police official told the newspaper Der Westen: “There are three rival groups. It may be a conflict between Turks, Lebanese and Kurds. “Unlike with a demonstration of that size, we do not have a contact person, nobody wants to talk to the police.”
