I don't buy it... They've probably reclassified murder as misuse of a human body...

Cities say the 2023 drop in homicides and other violent crimes can be attributed to expanded efforts to prevent crime, including working with community volunteers, targeting gun possession in high-crime areas and placing officers on foot and bike patrols.

"It is historic. It's the largest one-year decline," said Asher, co-founder of AH Datalytics and a former crime analyst for the CIA and the New Orleans Police Department. "It's cities of every size, it's the suburbs, it's rural counties, tiny cities, it's large cities. It's really a national decline."

Clot-Shot numbers aren't counted, even though it was Murder.

Wait a minute; the Legislature, Governor, and Media say it a "Gun Pandemic/Emergency/Crisis" so how can it be oh so much better, when at the same time you're telling us we're in a State of Emergency?

It would be interesting to view the statistics on a State-by-State basis, or by city.
It sure didn't sound to me like anyplace in NY had a reduction in homocides.

Well you have to read into the article right. It’s a drop from 2022 to 2023 so the rates are still up since before Covid or whatever. It’s like saying inflation has come down. Yes inflation isn’t 9% right and and it’s about 3-4% but 9%+6%+4% still sucks. So yes the crime rate is still up and sucks it just dropped 13% from the all time highs or whatever they were last year.

They all died of covid?

 

[Hillbilly77]

Well, the data only makes sense. There were roughly 330 million Americans. Biden has told us in the past that 150 million Americans died of “gun violence’ and that another 120 million died of covid-19.

Of course homicides have dropped. There simply aren’t many Americans left to kill one another.
