The White House said Monday that Americans are safer under President Obama, despite FBI crime statistics showing that violent crime rose about 4 percent last year.

“The numbers indicate that since President Obama took office, the violent crime rate has fallen 15 percent,” said White House press secretary Josh Earnest, who said crime rates are still “near historic lows.”

Like I said years ago, the entire Washington DC is the most corrupt anti American this Country has seen. The cartel is so huge that even the IRS and the FBI is saturated with crime. It will be almost impossible to take back America unless the people overthrow the cartel lead by the communists Democrats.

Only hope: Trump for President. And rebuild the entire Federal Government.

Morons. The sad thing is the idiots running our country probably believe it.

Oh ,nothing to do with criminals being afraid they might get shot by all the armed citizens

More people carry now since 8 years of obama.

[jazusamo]

You’re absolutely right.

Go Trump!

[Army Air Corps]

Yeah, it has been a real Lake Woebegone under Pres. Numbnuts.

I'm sure they feel that way, of course the American People don't feel safe with Barky, never have...

I think Barky has called out his thugs, that's why all the violence in the past two weeks, it will keep on going, we just need to be aware and stay safe...

[DJ Taylor]

Yes, the gun sales in this country as a result of the Obama presidency has made us safer simply because we’re now better armed. How many of us now have more guns and ammunition than we had before 2008?

Obama has been the best thing to ever happen to this country’s firearms industry.

[jazusamo]

Yep...0bama has been the most successful gun salesman ever, the only things he’s good at.

[Verginius Rufus]

How can the US be safer when millions of black men are shot by racist cops every day?

Obama's SoS sold every valuable secret we had to every evil group on the planet, so just another 180 degree statement from the WH.
