It's not the murder rate so much as natural disasters and giant monsters. I've seen the movies.

Geez, the giant monsters are not the big deal that people make them out to be. You can't believe everything you see in the movies.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And we haven't had a good tidal wave in years!

And that whole C.H.U.D. thing is totally under control now.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
What about the alien invasions, huh? I'm not coming back to your dusty little burg until there's actually something going on.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
And that whole C.H.U.D. thing is totally under control now.
And the Morlocks are actually quite friendly.

Ooh, that reminds me, I'm going to be in Memphis in October. Not to get murdered. For a wedding. Will you be around weekend of the 3rd?
I should be - I'll mark it to avoid making any plans, if you'd like to meet up for dinner or somesuch.

Well, I suppose if you compare it to Tokyo then it wouldn't seem so bad.

“Not dead yet!”
Last year, the local newscasters completely jinxed the city of Jacksonville. They happened to mention on August 30th how, if we made it through the next day without a murder, it would be the first murder free month in Jax in nearly two years.
You can guess what happened, right?
Right. It's like daring some asshole.
