Any of the people in charge of that program who want to come to the Bay or NYC and help with their local justice-impacted community?

They should go to Houston, which has a higher murder rate than either of those: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities_b...

Lol, houston is not even in the top 35 on that list. It's not even the biggest city in that list. Chicago has it beat. And my home town continues to represent as #1.

Just because it's a pet issue of mine: the FBI specifically warns against making a table like this one because crime stats from different agencies simply cannot be compared like that. It also tends to distort reality when a city with a relatively small Census resident population has a much larger daytime population due to commute patterns.
