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?

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.

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

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?
