The U.S. crime rate is still dropping, FBI data shows
NBC News ^ | 03 19 2024 | Ken Dilanian

New FBI data confirms previous indications that crime in the U.S. declined significantly in 2023, continuing a post-pandemic trend and belying widespread perceptions that crime is rising.

The new fourth-quarter numbers showed a 13% decline in murder in 2023 from 2022, a 6% decline in reported violent crime and a 4% decline in reported property crime. That’s based on data from around 13,000 law enforcement agencies, policing about 82% of the U.S. population, that provided the FBI with quarterly data through December.

“It suggests that when we get the final data in October, we will have seen likely the largest one-year decline in murder that has ever been recorded,” said Jeff Asher, a former CIA analyst who now studies crime trends.

In October, the FBI will release its final and most comprehensive look at crime in 2023.

unprecedented numbers of violent illegals pouring across our borders, and minority groups angrier and more vicious than they ever have, and somehow crime is dropping? I call bs!

Doesn’t really apply to homicides.

That said, now do a comparison to 2018 and 2019.

If you stop enforcing laws, your numbers will suggest there is no crime.

Exactly. FIB gonna fib.

I heard a story today about an illegal invader from Venezuela shooting another illegal invader from Venezuela who was a tranny. The shooter had been arrested before for possessing an illegal firearm and was LET GO THE SAME DAY BY A JUDGE. So apparently you can break into our country and be given credit cards and free meals and free housing AND DO WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT with zero consequences.

This reminds me of the old Soviet Union.

The USSR government was always claiming how great the economy was and how much the people were better off under communism. They even had statistics and studies from every government agency and was backed up by studies and finding from their elite academic institutions. They told you you had a higher standard of living than before but if you did not acknowledge it you were a reactionary tool. The government controlled media and pop culture reinforced the narrative.

But deep down the people knew better. They looked at their pocketbook and knew they were being lied to. But saying anything about could get them thrown in the gulag (Just like the J6 protesters) and cost them their life savings.

It's the same in 2024 America. First they tried to sell us that we are so much better off economically under Biden. Why heck, they even have "statistics" and "studies" to back up tier lies. It's the same principle with crime. They telling us we are safer now but anyone within an hour of a major city knows better. Anybody with relatives in a major city knows better.

But fear not, we are at the widespread gulag stage....yet.

The crime reporting rate is going down.

The crime rate, as witnessed daily across the nation, is not.
