Default Re: Philly's Homicide Rate Down 3% from 2006, So Far

Check out the demographics of those murdered. The Inquirer did a story on it in early 2007. Sorry no link. But in 2006, it was somewhere in the neighborhood of 90% black males aged 18-35 as the "victims". I say it like that because later on there was a story where the majority of said victims had felony records or were awaiting felony trials. So if you don't fall into those categories your good.
