They’ve only had 24 murders this year despite their demographics and size. It’s probably the best run and cleanest Democrat city in the US. You can actually walk around Boston anytime of day and feel safe in almost every neighborhood even downtown at night. What are they doing differently since most other big US cities are cesspools of murder and violent crime

NYC has similar murders per capita to Boston, and was lower for all of the 2010's. This year seems to be a fluke

It's only 22% black and I believe a large percentage of Boston's blacks are immigrants who are less buckwild than the usual American black.

Also the main black neighborhoods are Dorchester, Roxbury, etc which are all a bit removed from the main downtown and touristy areas.

Municipal divisions in New England are pretty unique. Like are you talking about the actual city of Boston or the Boston Area. Many of the suburbs surrounding Boston are actually sovereign towns with their own police forces, and the wealthier residents enforce laws so that their little Elliot Rodgers can grow up in a safe community.

boston's blacks have less access to guns than in other cities. kind of like NYC. that makes most of the difference. homicide rate in the US is actually kind of formulaic. you have a few inputs in terms of demography (each ethnic group has a certain gradient from its most peaceable 'background' state to its most violent), geography (urban vs. rural), age pyramid, and access to firearms (for blacks, specifically).

and that's it. you can more or less derive a reasonable estimate of an area's murder rate based on those factors.

Why would people have less access to guns in Boston? They can travel to New Hampshire just as easily as Chicagoans can go to Indiana.

who is going to sell black gangbangers guns in new hampshire? chicago does not enforce state-level gun laws, which is a big difference from massachusetts and boston. not even for actual machine gun conversions/glock switches.

people don't like to accept this fact, but it's just objectively true. the absolute most violent cities in the US (st. louis, memphis, detroit, birmingham, baltimore, etc.) are all characterized by large black populations with easy access to guns. that's how it works. it even works that way internationally, like in the caribbean.

boston and NYC have gun-related prosecutions and interdiction missions. a city like philly (for example) generally does not, and you can see the differences.

You get the same type of gun stores and owners in Indiana as in New Hampshire. I wouldn’t assume gun store owners have more discretion or are more racist even in either place.

The point about gun access is still interesting though.

legal gun stores and above-the-board sales are not the main vectors by which guns enter the ghetto. they are a factor (via straw purchases), but things like thefts from vehicles and internal gang networks from other regions are more important.

police interference is part of the equation. boston gangs are much more scared of the cops than gangs in other cities, and tend to use/carry firearms less often. that reduces 'impulsive' shootings, which is actually most of them in areas like chicago with no effort to control black access to guns.

1. Handguns must be sold via a FFL in your home state. So they would need a Massachusetts FFL to do the deal.

2. NH won't sell long guns to people that they would not be allowed to own in their home states.

yes, criminals buy them in the hoods where they live, used and paying cash. often, these are purchased by arms traffickers/straw buyers in more lenient states.

I actually agree with you - I was pointing out that criminals don't drive a state away to buy handguns themselves. And NH doesn't have the same number of arms traffickers willing to sell to inner city Boston dirtbags that Gary Indiana does.

and what does it matter that coke is being trafficked from South America to Boston? what does that have to do with guns? Very few guns in the hands of criminals are trafficked from abroad. We have plenty of them here and guns are a lot harder to smuggle than powder bricks.

that's another aspect - in places like chicago, you don't need to be a serious/'connected' criminal to easily get a gun. all of your cousins and siblings will already have 'pipes' laying around, and you can just grab one whenever. in boston, it's more restricted. a preteen quasi-gangbanger has less access to hardware than his chicago peers.
