Democrats start leading in election years. The Biden admin closed the border in the leas up to the election.

Are we going to pretend they'd have kept that posture if Kamala won? Or are we smarter than that?

I thought many cities no longer reported their stats. That was the argument here when the left on this board was trying to proclaim Biden. I don't believe any of this shite.

if someone has a link explaining this, i'd love to read it but i'm too lazy to search for one

Not wrong. Judges going soft on crime also deflate numbers.

I'm smart enough to know some military presence in Chicago didn't cause a massive national decline in the murder rate. Do you even have the faintest idea of how numbers work?

Calm down, I was asking a question. I haven’t been keeping up with any of that.

That's fair. And I'd say it moved the needle some. There certainly wasn't 0 impact. So yes in that regard Trump should get some credit.

Xai has also been posting generated pornographic images of minors.

I'm not mad at you. I was answering your question. He's a criminal and he won't be prosecuted because we truly live in a 2 tiered justice system.

The population of the US in 1900 was 76 million. Today it’s 342 million. To be as low as it was in 1900 is a significant drop!

This is about per capita rates not raw numbers

I'd also add does it support or undermine the idea that things are so bad that we need to send the military into cities like Chicago

Are you smart enough to remember your own comments in this thread?

tbh, murder is a very overrated stat to me

people like me (and everyone else reading this) get murdered at such a low rate it's silly to worry about. property and non leathal violent crime is a much bigger issue to the vast majority of americans.


Murder is a good stat for general crime, because you can't cover up a murder very easily and it tracks with general crime

Where you claimed cities not reporting data had zero effect on rates?


a. You still don't understand those stories.

b. Are you sure they reported in 2025?

c. You ignored the question about your thoughts on 2024.
