Trump: "Crime is rising."

i actually think it is, in certain markets over the past 1-2 years

it's still WAY down from the peak in the mid-80s to mid-90s

Yeah, but I don't trust anything those left-wingers at NPR say.

More like the police are fudging their paperwork and sometimes flat out lying about it.

Exactly. Gun ownership has increased and crime went down. That is irrefutable.

I wanna say the violent crime rate in LA is also the lowest it's been since something like the early 60's, too

Well it seems to be rising in NOLA. Maybe. Who can tell?


Maybe over the past 1 or 2 years, but from its peak? Not even close to rising.

Actually I did. People think the world is going to end because of all the "crime", but if you consider the fact the population is growing, based on these numbers its much safer today than it was in the early 90s.

If only social media had been around forever, the things we would know that we do not know.

Does anyone know that the way they report crime in America has changed and is political


For starters, Hispanics are considered white in FBI data.

What about 2015 vs. 2014?

Violent crime is rising.

You're a liberal moron.

Crime of many types has been declining for decades, but you wouldn't know it from the folks trying to sell fear. The same holds true for humanity in general. We are at the safest and most civilized point in human history. This is speaking in general. You will always be able to point to some groups having truly sucky lives even today.
