What about the over SIX THOUSAND police agencies, including LAPD and NYPD who are NOT reporting their crime statistics along with other large agencies such as; Philadelphia, Phoenix and Chicago with only partial reporting?

Don’t you think that’s an important factor that could reflect in what you reported on?

Can someone address the FBI “revised”

crime stats that were snuck into the 2022 crime data.

Great news for you, Jeff has covered this topic in-depth at https://jasher.substack.com/

I of course am happy to see the sharp decline in the murder rate. I think the MUCH SHARPER 2020 increase in murder victims deserves to be compared to our recent decrease. Especially as it suggests an explanation (if not a “cause”) that is quite different from what we hear in political arguments

Please comment on or discredit the credibility of my roughly arrived-at claim that since 1994 at least 150,000 young black males have been murdered, usually by other youngish black males. I'm an ex-journalist, not a crime guy and not a stat guy. But the 'American Slaughter,' as I call it, is, by my amateurish figuring, still ongoing -- certainly in Chicago. Thanks. https://clips.substack.com/p/2023-another-year-of-slaughter-for?utm_source=publication-search

Hey Bill, you can access CDC mortality data from 1968-2022 easily online. I'm happy to provide a link if it's permitted. Anyway, here are the numbers. I could not select single-year ages from 1994-1998, so I went with ages 15-44. Hispanic black is included with non-Hispanic black, total homicides: 34,975. From 1999-2022, the total number of homicides for non-Hispanic black males ages 18-40 was 135,854. Between 1980 and 2019, 91.5% of black people were killed by other black people. So, we're at 156,308 INTRARACIAL homicides. You're in the ballpark, depending on how we define "youngish."

Thanks very much. It's a shocking number that needs to be given more national publicity.

What are you calculations for white-on-white crime for the same time period?

Most victims of crime and most perpetrators of crime are of the same race, for what should be obvious reasons -- at least 90 percent. So black people and white people kill each other most of the time. Sadly, the homicide rate for blacks, and even the total number of blacks who are murdered, are disproportionately higher than for whites. It's not racist, by the way, to point that out. Roughly, if there have been 20,000 homicides a year for 30 years, and whites account for 40 percent of them, then the death toll for all white murdered in the USA, mostly murdered by other whites of all ages, is 240,000. If you read my substack, you will see all the numbers you need to understand the focus is on young black males killing other young black males.

What, you are not going to address the fact that the FBI "factors in the information gaps into their estimates" and how corrupt our current FBI "leadership" is?
