Philadelphia on pace for lowest murder rate in 56 years

[Genos]

Facts according to who? If coke a cola pays scientist to create a report that says sugar doesn’t cause diabetes and that’s what the report shows that’s a fact according to who paid for the study.

Who is paying to show lower crime rates? It has to be someone who isn't a fan of the cops because they are proving they are needed less

 

[Thurgood Thurston III]

Everybody who needed to get killed got killed. After a while there’s no more opps alive to get caught lacking.

No joke this is actually what happened in NY, especially with the wooo vs cho shyt.

The real killers are dead or locked up and the rest kind of aged out of the bullshyt.

The only shyt you really see now is extremely local personal beef.

you don't seem to understand. the whole system lies, everything is a lie. All of these numbers are a lie, the unemployment rate numbers are a lie. You are naive to believe these people.

Deaths are the most difficult statistic to fake. It's why murder stats are considered more solid than any other crime stat. Every death is reported from a specific coroner's office, tied to specific names, body has to be stored somewhere. For someone to cook murder stats would entail a wild level of conspiracy that would almost certainly be exposed by any decent journalist.

I wish they just moved Temple U, like no matter how much they doll up the college and the surrounding areas, its still in the trenches. Around the corner you are going to see some shyt that would make the devil diddy bop.

How do the other big schools like Drexel and UPenn deal with the city crime?

I know Philly's population has increased since the 60s and that ideally we should look at murder rate numbers (per 100k) rather than totals but since the article didn't do that I won't either and I'll look just at the total incidence numbers:

This is goofy because Philly's population has doubled since the 1960s (which you're well aware of), why would you ignore that fact just because the article did too?

Isn't it better for the surrounding area that Temple is there? If Temple moved, wouldn't the most likely result be that the surrounding area would get even worse?

So where are they hiding the bodies? Murder rate still down...

Philly got vacants?

Just know you aren’t crazy

They want your property for cheap so they can have a come up. An even more sinister subversive way of blockbusting.

Makes drill music seem like it’s part of a BlackRock scam but who knows

people hate bearing responsibility and will rush to invent scapegoat logic and place blame away from themselves. it's becoming a form of mental delusion

this is COPING THIS IS NOT REALITY

the conclusion is always a long the lines of helpless unwitting Black people subverted by white man into self destruction. Now Blackrock made drill? last week it was the CIA giving kids self destructive media and whippets...



"they" are benefactors of the fallout of decline. you don't need to keep making white people sound like gods who predict the future and social engineer the fabric of reality while Black people helplessy match to the beat of their drum just to avoid addressing the problems are within the community and culture.

Because population size isn't the end all be all with interpreting crime numbers. It isn't a matter of, well, the population has doubled so the number of murders should also be multiplied by two.
Police force has increased too, methods of policing have advanced, the ability to monitor citizens has advanced, ways to reach out to citizens has advanced, more time has gone by to put in place good preventive programs, etc.

Moreover, other cities have done better in bringing down murders and, as I stated, his immediate predecessor averaged nearly a 100 murders per year less than him, which has nothing to do with population size.

Why are you ignoring context you can figure out for yourself and pretending that the article in the OP actually had a valid point when it clearly didn't?

Those areas are not in the middle of the trenches . When you have college kids getting stuck up and shyt at for decades, yeahhhh that's a problem.
