NEW: An Axios report says crime is going down. Is it? As is almost always the case with transparently political articles, the report is more about helping Democrats overcome an election issue hurdle than providing you with the context that’s important. mynorthwest.com/3957604/rantz-…
@jasonrantz the crime is going down. For the reason of counting only convictions (not arrests) and changing the definitions of certain crimes
@jasonrantz It’s all lies!!! Propaganda!!! The dems are truly evil!!!
@jasonrantz successful prosecutions are probably down, intentionally, and thats how they get these numbers.
@jasonrantz Gov't says gov't is doing it's job ... and to trust them, right? Sorry, that train done left quite a while ago ...
@jasonrantz There's definitely been a decrease in both civilian and government crime reporting, as well as a decrease in government responding to criminal activity.
@jasonrantz Learned helplessness of crime is going up, thus reporting of crime is going down.
@jasonrantz Crime is massively up. But the stats have been juked downward because arrests and prosecutions seldom occur nowadays.
@jasonrantz If they stop counting crime then the amount of crime goes down.
