Now show me the data for the two years before you took office and Now compare all of that to 2020


Her stats are fricked up nine ways from Sunday. Crime NATIONWIDE was down over that period. So don't take credit for it dropping here and say it is something you are doing. Where are her 2020 numbers? Because they are way up. If we are taking credit then lets discuss now and not last year. I love how she singles out the SoutEastern United States. Bitch, let's look at Chicago, Detroit, NY City and a bunch of other Dem run hell holes. Don't blame this on the South just because all things South are the devil these days.

Her arguments are crap and she is crap. Yep. I am mad.

That’s why they dropped from 17-18. It was inevitable. 2020 will not be a drop.

I agree. The numbers seemed too good to be true which is why I asked the question.

Here is what we have accomplished since I took office: · Homicides dropped 10% from 2017 to 2018, and dropped another 12% from 2018 to 2019. · Violent crime is down 11% from 2017 to 2019. · Robbery is down 16% from 2017-2018 and down another 11% from 2018-2019. · Burglary, a property crime, dropped 17% from 2017-2018, and dropped another 16% from 2018-2019


Holy shite! Talk about cherry picking statistics.

She seems to have conveniently left off the fact that homicides ROSE by 71% in her first year in office (2017) to a RECORD HIGH. In 2018 she's right, there was a decrease from 2017's MOST HOMICIDES IN HISTORY. Yet, despite the minimal decrease, 2018 still had the most homicides (not counting 2017) in 10 years. 2019 had slightly less than 2018, but would STILL rank 3rd in total homicides over a 7 year span.

2020 is not over, but at just past the halfway point we are currently on pace to have the most or second most murders in history.

So if you are keeping score at home, her four years in office are on pace to be close to, if not the most violent 4 years in Baton Rouge history. Yet, her office is touting as an "accomplishment" the fact murders dropped a whopping TEN.PERCENT. from the worst year in Baton Rouge history.

Dear God

People in St George will likely be happy to set up and control their own police after this.

St. George won't have their own police department. They're ahead of the curve in terms of wokeness and defunding the police.

Ain't that the truth. It's amazing how some thing throwing money at problems will magically fix them.

Start at home first, then there actually might be some progress.


They know it won't. They're just helping their friends and donors get richer. With the newest BLM wave there are these community activist and anti-violence groups that will pop up all over the country. Mayors and governors and other politicians will send them millions. They'll do nothing but give that politician some great donations next time they're up for re-election. The black communities will never see a dime of it. These people are shameless criminals.

How about the "Better Together" billboards? How much did those cost? How about the hundreds of thousands of dollars spent to campaign against private citizens trying to incorporate their area of the parish? How much money is now being spent to sue those same people because you don't like the outcome of a free and legal election? Could have donated that right?

Furthermore, on the FBI's crime statistics website, the federal agency specifically cautions against drawing conclusions by making direct comparisons between cities, writing: "Comparisons lead to simplistic and/or incomplete analyses that often create misleading perceptions adversely affecting communities and their residents."

Here is what we have accomplished since I took office: · Homicides dropped 10% from 2017 to 2018, and dropped another 12% from 2018 to 2019. · Violent crime is down 11% from 2017 to 2019. · Robbery is down 16% from 2017-2018 and down another 11% from 2018-2019. · Burglary, a property crime, dropped 17% from 2017-2018, and dropped another 16% from 2018-2019


Don't believe statistics, they can be misleading.

Here are some statistics, please believe them.
