Reported crime has decreased, actual crime has not.

The FBI said Catholics case 99% of terrorism in the U.S. Isn’t that crime skyrocketing?

Well, when you cut back on police response, pressure police to not arrest criminals for the crimes they commit and have DA who refuse to charge or under charge those few criminals that do get arrested then the stats do show lower documented crime rates.

RE: It Hasn’t.

Rolling Stone might be looking at the wrong country as I am.

Here in New York City, Crime has become SO BAD that the governor has to deploy HUNDREDS of national guards to help secure the New York City subways in response to a surge in crime and safety concerns.

The New York Police Department (NYPD) and local law enforcement are generally responsible for maintaining public safety, but the decision to involve the National Guard was made due to the severity and urgency of the situation.

I’ve never seen this done before ( the only other times were the 9/11 attacks in 2001 and a gigantic natural disaster — Hurricane Sandy.

Rolling Stone is a magazine for burned out geriatric dopers.

Are crime stats compiled when charged or when successfully prosecuted? Also, what happens when folks just stop reporting to FBI and other data gathering entities?

I’m sure all the major businesses leaving the cities did it because the cities are safe and prosperous.

They need to use 2019 as the benchmark:

Violent crimes remain elevated compared to 2019, the year prior to the COVID pandemic and racial justice protests of 2020. There were 24% more homicides during the first half of 2023 than during the first half of 2019 in the study cities. Property crime trends have been more mixed. There were fewer residential burglaries and larcenies and more nonresidential burglaries in the first half of 2023 than during the same period four years earlier. Motor vehicle thefts more than doubled (+104%), while drug offenses fell by 39%.

In WA, pretty much a participation ribbon and juice box for car thefts and burglaries, especially amongst juviniles who are not charged. It never hits the stats.

So guess who is doing the crime?

No crime reported. No crime prosecuted. No crime.

To: All

When crime is not tabulated; when crime is not prosecuted, then ‘crime falls’... even as it grows exponentially in reality.

Much like they do with their inflation calculations, government agencies lie about reality with crime too, to protect the 0’Biden Regime of Corruption and Destruction.

"A Rape on Campus" is a retracted, defamatory Rolling Stone magazine article written by Sabrina Erdely and originally published on November 19, 2014, that describes a purported group sexual assault at the University of Virginia (UVA) in Charlottesville, Virginia. Rolling Stone retracted the story in its entirety on April 5, 2015.

The article claimed that a UVA student Jackie Coakley had been taken to a party hosted by UVA's Phi Kappa Psi fraternity by a fellow student.

At the party, Jackie alleged in the article, her date led her to a bedroom where she was gang raped by several fraternity members as part of a fraternity initiation ritual.

A large number of police precincts have stopped reporting crimes to the FBI.
For some reason that caused "reported crimes" to go down in number. Go figure!

FBI data shows US crime plummeted in 2023 but experts warn report is incomplete The Guardian - Tue 19 Mar 2024

However, the statistics are based on figures collected from only 79% of law enforcement agencies in the US. Experts have previously warned that data can be “patchy” given inconsistency in reporting by the local agencies who supply the numbers. And the new stats are unaudited as the FBI is not scheduled to release its official figures and analysis concerning crime in 2023 until this upcoming October.

When prosecutors refuse to prosecute crimes, the crime rate lowers. Funny how that works.

Remember when Rolling Stone was taken to the cleaners by the fake rape girl? They’re dullards and will believe anything.
