Here are the stats for 2024.
So, you think that the government doesn't lie to you? Technically, I guess it isn't a lie if they simply don't track crimes that they are not going to prosecute. Then there's the "why waste my time" effect that keeps people from reporting crimes that they know the police are not going to investigate. In Seattle, instead of prosecuting the people who deface your building with graffiti (even when you have video), they prosecute the building owner if he doesn't clean up the mess in a timely manner.
If you want to see how the government lies to you, find some of the FDA and CDC directives from early 2020 where they instructed hospitals and doctors to assign COVID as a cause of death if the person could have been infected. So, you have people dying of a car accident or a fall being recorded as a COVID death. Hospitals and doctors went along with the directive because a COVID "death" came with more money. Why do you think the death count was as high as it was? It had to be to confirm the narrative and allow the government to ruin businesses and lives. The states are slowly fixing that now because they realize that the directive was political and corrupted the actual statistics which are truly important for recording public health over time. Turns out that COVID was no worse than a bad flu. It did impact specific groups of people (the elderly and infirm) who we could have protected better. Instead, they shut down schools and harmed an entire generation of children.
If you live close enough to visit Manhattan or San Francisco, how do you feel about walking the streets and taking the subway?
Why do you think the President is responsible for crime? Does he control police funding? Does he control the prosecutors? We can certainly blame Biden though -- he's the one who insists on an open border - thereby breaking actual laws HIMSELF - where he actively, knowingly allows criminals free entry into the US. Trump did his best to stop the influx of illegal aliens. Only a President who acts against the public interest as Biden has done should be blamed for the results of his overt actions.
