    Gang violence in the three worst cities in America. Usually the statistics include 19yo. When you remove the three worst cities and 19yo, the statics are similar to the rest of the world.

          No, you normalize the data to account for the higher density of people.

          You can’t just ignore the 3 largest cities because they have more people or higher crime rates.

          Sure, we obviously have wrong data for 19 yo. Let’s just remove it from the data. And those three cities, clear outliers, 3 cities won’t affect the data noticeably anyway
