BLOOD IS spilling at a record rate - not only on the streets of Philly - but in supposedly friendlier locales, according to police statistics.

From the land of Mickey Mouse to the mid-Western epicenter of NASCAR racing, murder is on the rise.

Even New York City is seeing a 6 percent rise this year.

Sunny Orlando, Fla., site of the world's most popular theme park, broke its 1982 homicide record with its 37th killing on September 5, 2006. The '82 count was 36 deaths.

Meanwhile, Indianapolis is on track to exceed its 1998 murder record of 162.

As of September 5, 2006, Little Rock, Ark., is one homicide away from exceeding its 2005 tally.

As of December 10, 2006, Philadelphia has seen the Blood shed of 384 victims.
Enough is enough ...
