What a joke. Corporate world loves a fake crime wave.

The same dumb dumbs who believe this shit thought COVID was fake and just an attempt by evil corporations to control people.

Imagine being tricked so badly.

JustAManOnAToilet OP ,

So the +12% YOY is false? What’s the correct number then?

Crime stats are easy to juke. I haven’t dived into these numbers. Got a degree in criminology though, heavy focus on stats and program evaluation.

I note that the largest social and economic disruption in US history began three years ago and obviously crime was gonna go up after that. I find it more useful to compare present stats to early to pre-2020 numbers. And generally, I’m just not impressed by slight increases with an obvious cause. Especially when they are offered as evidence by people with no sincere interest in reducing crime, such as people advocating for more police, more prisons, three strikes laws, mandatory minimums, truth in sentencing laws, asset forfeiture, disenfranchisement, incarceration cost restitution, or other such “tough on crime” “law and order” bullshit, which obviously cause more poverty and familial and community instability, and thereby serve only to cause more crime. Anyway that’s my rant.

Yeah, wage theft is rampant. Someone should do something about this crime wave.
