   The things you are complaining about are happening on a national level,   
   in ALL big cities. I live on the west coast in a suburban area north of   
   San Francisco. The crime rate in our town of Santa Rosa has the highest   
   increase of any city in California. Oakland's murder rate is on course   
   to become a record year.   
      
   The economy is bad, unemployment is bad, this does not bode well for   
   crime rates. Targeting Philadelphia without considering the broader   
   scope of the problem is a colossal oversight on your part.   
      
   BTW, my family and I will be moving to Delaware Co. next spring, your   
   myopic ranting hasn't deterred us one bit.   
   Good luck with your fear. It is, after all, the main thing to be afraid   
   of...
