The FBI’s latest crime report has come under scrutiny, with accusations of being unreliable and deceptive. According to the report, crime in America actually decreased last year, with murder dropping by 13% and violent crime down almost 6%. However, critics argue that these numbers are based on exaggerated guesses and are not reflective of the true state of crime in the country.
The Coalition for Law, Order, and Safety, an independent group of law enforcement professionals, blames the increase in crime on policies like de-policing, de-carceration, and de-prosecution, which they claim are being pushed by Democrats. They argue that the lack of enforcement and the release of criminals are contributing to the rise in crime.
The FBI’s use of inferred statistics has also raised concerns, with many questioning the accuracy of the data. Victims are reportedly losing faith in the justice system and are less likely to report crimes, leading to a skewed perception of crime rates.
Critics point out that while the government claims that crime is decreasing, the reality is that fewer crimes are being reported, giving a false impression of safety. Politicians, including President Biden, have been accused of manipulating data to fit their narrative.
Despite the claims of decreasing crime rates, the numbers tell a different story. The murder rate is the highest it has been since 1996, and violent robberies have actually increased by 30% according to the government’s own victims survey.
In the midst of these conflicting reports, it is clear that the issue of crime statistics is a complex and contentious one. As the debate continues, it is important for the public to critically evaluate the information presented to them and demand transparency and accuracy in reporting.
