Dear Pitch: Thanks, as always, for keeping a running tally of the city's homicide totals--all too many people in the KC-area want that info ignored. Not looking good for the home team: In 2007 we had a total of 94 homicides, in 2008 we had 126 homicides, to date in 2009 we have had 97 homicides--trend lines don't look good for cowtown. Sincerely and Respectfully, Ernest Evans
