The FBI released its 2025 Crime in the United States report on a Friday afternoon which wasn’t there fault but also was super great for getting a ton of attention on the fact that murder fell at the fastest pace ever recorded to the lowest rate recorded since the FBI started its modern estimates.
Thanks Jeff. Your contribution is valuable and you're gaining traction - I see you cited more often in news articles.
The charts are helpful to show to crime-fearin' friends/relatives who don't understand numbers. They need to be required viewing for a certain unnamed fear-mongering political party and the LameStream media.

Primarily coming, then as now, by the leftist activists in academia and their growing dominance over collegiate thought due to the Marxist "Long March through the Institutions". You also had "soft on crime" political responses to the reactionary political responses to legitimate civil rights activities, which all enabled the rise of Marxist revolutionary violence, again centered around university staff and students.

This really makes me wonder what happened in the late 60s and early 70s? Seems like it doesn't get discussed enough.
