Neal, you're a complete PUTZ! By your own study, Massachusetts has
substantially lowers rates for almost all forms of crime than the
national average. The murder rate is about 40% of the national average.
The overall "crime index" was 42nd in the country.

The the most recent studies, MA is cited as the "safest state in the
country." My hometown is cited as "The safest city in the country"!

And the absolute most boring city, too, if you are the typical resident
thereof.
