The other day I was talking to my brother in law, who is Dutch and he said that in the same day he read the 2011 murder statistics for both St. Louis City and the entirety of the Netherlands, he went on to state that the City of St. Louis (which has just under 350,000 citizens by the way) had 30 more homicides than the entire country of the Netherlands (which has just under 17,000,000 citizens). I told him, well...you know we're over achievers in St. Louis.
