Willravel,
First, I was editting when you responded, so I apologize if it seems like I went back to edit.
Second, it's stupid to place the burden of proof on me, when you made the argument.
Third, I just disproved your statistic:
Population of Detroit - 860,971
Violent Crime rate - 19,708
Chance of violent crime - 1/43.6
VERY FAR from 1/375 as your hypothetical conversation stated. As such, those hypothetical conversations are all suspect.
Table 8 (Michigan) - Crime in the United States 2007
I rest my case.
