There are at least a few good news, and it is one of them.

Why has violent crime rates declined over several years in large cities?

What’s behind the ‘historic collapse’ in homicide and violent crime rates in major US cities

Wow,, this is a tough one. Let me think about this statement ...

... "The report is just the latest analysis to illustrate declines in violent crimes in 2025" ...

Did anything change, maybe 21 January 2025, or maybe any USA policy change ...

HINT: the "Remain in Mexico" policy.

Nah, can't be, and all probably just a coincidence.

    Following your logic, as you can see on the graph, it increased under Trump and started to decline under Biden in 2022, 2023 and 2024, at an accelerating decrease rate! 😂

    It already started to increase before 2020. I'm not particularly blaming Trump for it, I was just followed your own logic, as my post clearly stated. 😀

    Bidens covid lockdowns slowing many criminals (not st.George mind) and then Trump 2.0 reinstating law and order. Easy to overthink sometimes.

    You are completely wrong, as usual. The crime peak occured in 2020, a lockdown year. Covid lockdowns stopped in 2021, and the crime rate decreased in 2022, 2023, and 2024! 🤣
