Last week a police officer was shot as he walked into a Dunkin' Donuts that was being robbed. I'll repeat that--a guy was robbing a freaking DUNKIN' DONUTS, and decided "cop killer" was a good title to add to his resume.

I miss Calgary.
Yeah, I wouldn't compare Wichita to any of the 2 mil + metro areas.

I was in Philly when I was 5, so much history.

But I wonder if Wichita's murder rate is higher than say....Minneapolis for instance.
