I would also add that while tragic, none of what I wrote has ANY RELEVANCE to the direction of the stock market, contrary to what the amateurs want you to believe.

Since I guess I'm an amateur, I'll comment. There may be an impact on the market in that increases in crime essentially represent a tax on society - the cost of enforcement that could otherwise be spent on productive uses. When we tax our infrastructure, we become less competitive in the global scene. Lower competitiveness is a depressant on our markets. Granted this is a long term impact, but real nonetheless.
