Skyrocketing crime rates in democrat communist-controlled BLUE cities have been such an effective campaign issue for Republican candidates, certain leftist propagandists have resorted to claiming that violent crime actually declined in 2021 under The Obiden Regime.
This from conservative-headlines.org.
My response, in a single word: Bullshit.
Both Joy Behar of The View and Jake Tapper of the Communist News Network (CNN) recently stated that the statistics to make this claim were flawed.
They, however, are relying on misleading and incomplete data from the FBI’s release of its most recent 2021 crime report.
The FBI was very tardy in releasing its report for 2021, citing what it called “complicated bureaucratic methodological reasons.” What?
What that really means is there was a dramatic decline in the number of local law enforcement agencies participating in the FBI’s data collection by reporting their jurisdictions’ crime incidents to the FBI.
There’s no mystery why participation declined in 2021:
For several years, violent crime rates have skyrocketed in BLUE cities run by blacks and other idiotic [
democratscommunists], and both the FBI and those BLUE cities are desperate to hide this fact. Also, reporting has been made unnecessarily complex.
In 2020, 85 percent of U.S. law enforcement agencies reported their crime data to the FBI, but only 63% participated in 2021.
Moreover, only 52% of America’s 18,000 law enforcement agencies submitted complete data in 2021, the lowest participation rate since 1979.
Two BLUE cities that failed to participate were Los Angeles and New York, both of which have experienced skyrocketing violent crime rates.
Not coincidentally, both have foolishly adopted insane criminal justice “reforms” such as cash-free bail, early release of felons, and the “decriminalization” of many traditional offenses.
Any honest person—a limitation clearly excluding Behar and Tapper—would recognize that dramatic declines in participation by many local law enforcement agencies means very skewed and unreliable results in the FBI’s final report.
The FBI’s incomplete data for 2021 makes comparisons with any other year extremely dubious, at best.
Without the violent crime data from the NYPD, LAPD, and many other law enforcement agencies, U.S. violent crime rates were dramatically undercounted in FBI statistics.
It’s like claiming violent crime has declined after excluding offenses committed by the species Africanus Criminalis.
Final thoughts: As the picture above states, Get Out of the Cities. And don’t return, not even for short day-light, daytime trips. Let your money do the talking.
Drastically reduced amounts of money changing hands in the BLUE cities—sports events, arts-related events, dinner, shopping—will quickly bring necessary attention, as if it hasn’t already.
Lori Lightfoot—Chicago—comes to mind. What a compromised, clueless twit. And St. Louis, talk about No Go.
