FBI Crime Stats

[WillBrink]

Media et al wants people to thinks it's WWIII out there as fear sells and disconnects one from their critical thinking abilities... FBI crimes stats show crime dropped yet again and statically speaking, you have not been safer in the US in many decades and crime peaked in the late 80s/early 90s:

"For the second consecutive year, the estimated number of violent crimes in the nation decreased when compared with the previous year’s statistics, according to FBI figures released today. In 2018, violent crime was down 3.3 percent from the 2017 number. Property crimes also dropped 6.3 percent, marking the 16th consecutive year the collective estimates for these offenses declined.

The 2018 statistics show the estimated rate of violent crime was 368.9 offenses per 100,000 inhabitants, and the estimated rate of property crime was 2,199.5 offenses per 100,000 inhabitants. The violent crime rate fell 3.9 percent when compared with the 2017 rate; the property crime rate declined 6.9 percent.

These and additional data are presented in the 2018 edition of the FBI’s annual report Crime in the United States. This publication is a statistical compilation of offense, arrest, and police employee data reported by law enforcement agencies voluntarily participating in the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program."

Perfect, then no need to ban any weapons or creste any new gun laws, or additional background checks, or any other BS.


Then again, 73.34% of all statistics are made up.

Precisely. The gun banners must convince people the sky is falling to maintain any momentum and these new figures will do a nice job of yanking much wind from their sails.

Oh, I can hear the leftists already..

"Your statistics won't bring back the dead!"

"Why would I believe the FBI? The FBI is corrupt, just look at how they've helped Trump!"

"The people that make those stats are bought and paid for by the NRA!"

"But..but.. Switzerland!.. but..but.. Australia!"

Unfortunately, at the end of the day the truth won't sway their opinion because truth isn't what they're after.

Looks like those images are sized for proper viewing by ants.

Any chance you have something not microsized?

Hard to get true crime rate stats when same race violence often goes unreported. Hard to solve a case when both victim and witnesses just berrate you for the uniform you wear.

One issue with the UCR is it is based on voluntary reporting by local agencies. Under reporting or downgrading offenses to make your city look better is a thing

According to the BJS's National Crime Victimization Survey, crime is up, but also relies on surveys:
