At this rate, the city’s murder rate could jump 75 % in 2014.

Just five days into the New Year, the city already has seen eight murders. There were eight homicides as of Sunday night since Jan. 1 in comparison to six during the same five-day span in 2013, cops said.



The number of homicides in 2013 dropped to 334 — the lowest number since the NYPD started keeping track in the 1960s.


At the current pace, the city would reach 584 homicides this year.

How can the aging, angry white liberals of JPP blame this on Bush?

New York would be a better place if they would disarm those liberal gun nuts...

Liberals can't disarm criminals, they can only disarm people who obey the law.

Must be the new mayor's fault. He's only been mayor 5 days. It all happened on his watch. Blame De Blasio!

Only one thing here that I find problematic. The increase was only 33% over last year! 8 instead of 6 is 2 more and 2 is 33% of 6 so how does that translate to 75% for the year?

Oh, its a Murdoch rag, it's doesn't have to be accurate!

You love to stuff strawmen, don't you?

I must have missed the part where I was blaming the new jungle fever mayor. I just thought it was funny in a town full of liberals that they already have 8 people shot dead.
