It's 51st in violence when sorted by state name. Quit engaging this clear troll.

Carry a knife for last resort, and start running next time.

Of course it's a violent city, just like any other city on Earth.
Those aren't studies, those are lists on business websites.

I'm literally just sorting the Wikipedia list that you sourced. When Baltimore is "#51", it's because it is sorted by state name. Check out the Top Ten if you don't believe me.
That article has nothing to do with Baltimore and its crime rate. Congrats on bringing in unrelated information that I'm going to completely ignore, and instead I'm going up focus on your inability to read basic data tables.

I just pulled a bunch of studies but the fact is how they measure crime has as much to do with it, and that was my point. If you don’t view Baltimore as a violent city, you will be the next victim.

> If Baltimore were in the state of "Zmaryland", it would be #100 of the 100 most violent cities, when sorted by state name alphabetically.
"Lmao." - anyone who can read.

Reply to comment by Prolapst_amos in Plan the worst all-time date in Baltimore. by DfcukinLite
Again, not unique to Atlas. Our city is poor and crime ridden and I want to see as much investment as possible - especially in the downtown harbor area. We aren’t going to survive without tourist dollars and investment in dining (and real estate, and schools). There are plenty of wealthy privileged folks around that have chosen NOT to spend their inherited millions on Baltimore. I’m happy to have anyone spend money in Baltimore. The negativity around wealth in this town is obnoxious. I’ll take investment in a bunch of differently themed restaurants than investment in casinos and casino restaurants downtown any day. That said, glad we have the casino money too- I’m not gonna hate on the wealthy casino owners (or sports team owners) either. Baltimore needs it. We are not “fine otherwise” - we need to fix a lot in Baltimore and it’s going to take money.

The thing is, it was getting better for a while, at least in the right direction, and then it went totally back to as if literally no progress had been made for decades.
I think it's reasonable to comment on, maybe even lament over.

Yeah there's an abnormally high amount of murders, but those generally don't target random civilians. Some of those websites are using data from 2017 as well which is why those lists you posted are inconsistent. The person I replied to also said "crime," not "violent crime," which are different statistics.

Can we all realize already that nationality and ethnic group in many parts of the world are not the same thing.
There are people in Mexico who are indigenous, and there are people in Mexico who are basically European.
The Americas are very large, and every single part of them from Canada and Alaska down to Chile and Argentina has this dynamic in play.
Let people pick their own ethnic (and other) labels.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in knife/blade sharpening? by [deleted]
Not sure why downvoted. Can't speak for this place specifically, but if you've got an odd item you want sharpened (like the blade from a paper cutter), 'small shop with a grinding wheel' is where you want to go.

Oh come on it it is consistently list as one of the most dangerous cities. Finding something on Wiki does not change it. Yes there is similar crime in every major city, but criminals were given a pass the the last 4 years. Hopefully Bates will stop that! Ready for the city to make a turnaround. There us so much wonderful in it.
