Reply to comment by jamseph in Boston in 2022: Murders by spedmunki

You realize there are tons of poor people, including in these neighborhoods, that don’t break any laws right? We’re talking about less than a hundred murderers in a city of 700k. Comparing it to why rich people buy yachts is frankly ridiculous. Rich people aren’t victimized when their neighbor buys a yacht

8 Million??? You must be lost, this isn't New York. The number you are looking for is 650k.

There are a ton of very poor Central Americans in Boston and they almost never kill each other. Poverty is part of it but not the whole problem
