El Paso has been ranked the safest U.S. city of its size, even though it sits across from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, which is plagued by drug cartel violence, Mayor John Cook said.

Yah, right, Mayor.

From the FBI database for 2008:

<<<<<El Paso, Texas is in the 76% percentile rank in the state for Violent Crime. It is in the 76% percentile rank nationally. Lower numbers are better. In this case, 76% of cities in Texas have crime rates equal to or lower than El Paso, or said another way, 24% of cities in Texas have crime rates higher than El Paso.>>>>>

Hey, that's really impressive, Mayor. Well done. Probably good enough to reelect your stupid ass.
