Interesting study on 2012 US murder rates based on FBI data. Clearly minorities are a lot safer
living in Maine, New Hampshire, Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho where rate was zero, as opposed to
Missouri where the murder rate was 35 per 100,000 minority residents. 84% of minority murders
were by gun. Not sure what it means but Alabama and Florida do not report.

Tim says it's almost time to analyze this data.
