So because Chicago has a SIGNIFICANTLY bigger denominator they have less of a problem??????

One can find (or make) any statistic to support any given narrative.

Non statistic example?

Driving along one notes that every barn has arrows in it and arrow is in the bullseye. Narrative? Very good marksmen live there.

Then they come upon a guy that is painting bullseyes around arrows already in the barn!!!
