[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Los Angeles isn’t even in the top 75 most dangerous metro areas in the US. Violent crime rate is exceedingly low in LA.

A friend was almost carjacked leaving staples center after watching the LA Lakers. They smashed the driver side window as she was sitting in the driver seat, and reached in and stole her purse and stole her purse. When they tried to drag her out of the car she accelerated and got away. She called 911 and was told she would have to go back to the parking lot and wait for the police to take the report. Obviously, she wasn’t going to go back to the place where she we was just attacked. So there probably wasn’t a police report filed. [/quote]

This is literally no different than what you’ll hear from unhelpful 911 operators in Dallas, Cleveland, Peoria, DC, or Boston. It’s a problem with policing in America; they literally are inured to plight.

Not sure what this n=1 anecdote has to do with anything. The stats still bare out that Los Angeles is dramatically less dangerous than most other metro areas. [/quote]
