FBI Quietly Updated Crime Rates...

[Charlie Hustle]

Too many folks lack accountability and blame everything else but themselves.

I’ve been saying this forever. People always talking about “the devil made me do it”

less than half of police stations/precincts in the U.S report data to the FBI or state level agencies. if more agencies decide to voluntarily report than the rate of crime will go up in the stats.

You're from the shythole of all shytholes...nothing you've ever said on this forum holds any weight because your birthplace alone tells me more than likely all your views are skewed...

nikka mad as fukk over a pun

I guess we ignore that a bunch of those crimes came when Covid shutdowns and general tanking of commerce had people out doing dirt. It was cats with little before who had nothing once covid hit and nothing to do. 2019-2023 covers a couple years between of super-heightened fukkery.

This is what folks saying the data was BS we’re saying all along simply not reporting crime =/= lower crime

people been saying that for decades when refuting the stats racists like to draw attention to. over policing and incomplete data collection heavily skews those stats.

Facts. My uneducated guess is that the 2023 numbers are lower than 2020, 2021 & 2022 so they had to massage the message to get a Republican talking point stewing

Well of course, which tells you all you need to kno about the OP

We had a crime spike in 2020 why would they compare it to right before a crime spike and not the year before or year over year?

No they don’t. They had to update the jobs numbers recently. About a million jobs weren’t real

U.S. economy added 818,000 fewer jobs than first reported, sign job market has been slowing

The Labor Department estimated that job growth averaged 174,000 a month in the year that ended in March — a drop of 68,000 a month from the 242,000 that were initially reported. The revisions released Wednesday were preliminary, with final numbers to be issued in February next year.

I think ghost jobs is the wrong term. I think incompetent hr recruiters are more accurate. They will stall out a hire for anything and can’t keep up with requisitions.

Why would a "crime spike" not be relevant to any conversation discussing the tracking of crime

 

[HoldThisL]

Cherry picking

 

[lib123]

It’s not logical for people to think crime isn’t going up with prices and housing costs continuing to outpace wages for the poorest people. The current system isn’t sustainable.

Because the crime spike in 2020 is not relevant to whether there is one in 2024 given the reduction in crime.

This is complete word salad babble. If the crime statistics in 2020 don't matter in a conversation about 2024... Then neither would 2019 which is the basis of this thread as a "spike" in any metric can only be observed relative to what it's being compared to obviously.
