———————————————–BE SAFE! In Baltimore they had 10 homicides in the first 9 days of this year. Last year they had 275 homicides overall!
For those of you who are couch samari… get in a class and get it going! The violence is escalating and criminals are not afraid of cops. If they are not afraid of us, they wonít be afraid of you. Do it for yourself or at least do it for your family!
Haha I go to school near the city and not all parts of the city are bad but it is a pretty crappy place.
I think this list must be a payoff to someone. I live close to Coral Springs, FL and there is nothing safe about it. There are alot of other parts of South Florida that are safer. Just my .02
San Antonio’s crime rate is starting to go up too. I wouldn’t be surprised if they ended up in the top 25 soon. Crime rate has doubled here since Katrina hit.
Early last year we had one of our students successfully use a gun from the front defense during an armed robbery of a restaurant in downtown Baltimore (our training facility is a 20 minute drive from the Inner Harbor). We have several Baltimore city police officers training at our facility, but sadly, they report that there is a general apathy about quality training in Baltimore City PD. Baltimore is also notorious for its police corruption.
There’s no doubt in my mind that, especially given its relatively small size to bigger cities like New York, Chicago, and LA, Baltimore has an EXTREMELY high danger-factor for its city residence. Like Sean, I am in Baltimore city at least once a week, and its definitely not a matter to take lightly. But I love this area so the best we can do is give folks some skills to deal with the danger.
