Biden Claims the Violent Crime in Your Community is a Figment of Your Imagination (Hint: It’s Not)

Guest Post by amuse

President Biden and his willing accomplices in the mainstream media would have you believe that violent crime in America is at a 50-year low, a narrative eagerly parroted by so-called fact-checkers at Politifact. The reality, however, is far from what they claim. The only thing at a 50-year low is the integrity of violent crime data. Less than a year after taking office, Biden’s administration had the FBI dismantle the long-standing crime reporting system, replacing it in 2021 with a new, ‘woke’ system that is optional for state and local law enforcement agencies to use. As a result, at least 6,000 law enforcement agencies aren’t providing data, meaning that 25% of the country’s crime data is not captured by the FBI. This deliberate underreporting skews the statistics, painting a falsely optimistic picture of public safety while real Americans continue to suffer from rising crime rates.

Democrat-controlled cities from New York to San Francisco have effectively decriminalized violent crime. For instance, in New York City, 52% of violent felony cases are downgraded to misdemeanors, and offenders are typically offered diversion agreements that keep these offenses out of crime statistics. This manipulation alone could account for a 50% or more drop in reported violent crimes in the Big Apple. Across the country, Soros-backed prosecutors are refusing to prosecute violent criminals or downgrading their charges in record numbers. This systematic underreporting and leniency are tactics used by Democrats to create a misleading narrative about public safety, while communities continue to suffer from unchecked crime.

It’s not far-fetched to imagine that Biden and the Democrats replaced the FBI’s universal crime data system with a new optional system to fabricate this massive decrease in ‘reported’ crime. The move raises serious questions about their motives and the integrity of the data.

Of course, the Democrats will argue that the new system is more inclusive, allowing law enforcement agencies to record pronouns and gender identities, including transgender and nonbinary, as well as the sexual preferences of both criminals and victims. The timing and optional nature of the new system suggest an ulterior motive: to obscure the real rise in crime and present a false narrative of improvement under Democratic leadership.

Additionally, we know that the 70 Soros-backed prosecutors, representing 72 million Americans and half of the nation’s 50 most populous cities and counties, have made it their mission to implement so-called restorative justice. This approach often means refusing to prosecute violent criminals based on factors such as race and gender identity. The few criminals they do prosecute almost always have their violent felonies downgraded to misdemeanors. Both of these realities—the new optional reporting system and the restorative justice efforts—have led to violent crime data that fails to reflect the true state of our communities since 2021. These manipulations distort public perception and allow Democrats to promote a false sense of security.

National polls reveal that most Americans believe crime has increased significantly over the past four years. The situation is even more dire in large Democrat-controlled cities, where almost all residents report a massive surge in crime. Most residents even report that they or someone in their family has been a victim of crime.

Take Chicago, for example. Every weekend, approximately 70 people are shot. The crisis has escalated to such an extent that the mayor recently canceled the city’s contract with a company that detects and reports gunfire. There are so many gunshots in Chicago that police can only respond if someone is actually hit by a bullet.

New York City is similarly experiencing a huge spike in robberies and assaults, often occurring in broad daylight. The situation became so severe this year that the governor had to deploy National Guard troops to the NYC subway system to deter criminals. Before District Attorney Alvin Bragg and Attorney General Letitia James took office, these violent crimes would have been prosecuted as felonies. Now, if they are prosecuted at all, they are often downgraded to misdemeanors with diversion deals.

The next time someone tries to tell you that President Biden has reduced crime to its lowest levels in 50 years, let them know the truth. It’s easy to claim a decrease in crime when you leave out data from 25% of the population living in major cities like Los Angeles and New York City.

The reality is, these omissions paint a misleading picture of the state of crime in America. Don’t let them gaslight you with manipulated statistics. Demand full transparency and accountability in crime reporting to get the real story.

So, what you can look forward to is a string of airplanes and busses and possibly boats and trains dropping enough diversity in republican areas to make them democrat areas. Then the shitholization process begins in earnest.

This is how California became the northernmost province of Mexico, and it’s now happening to the rest of the country.

You are not going to vote your way out of it, you’re going to need backhoes and quicklime.

You don’t get out much. There’s Joes Biden’s third world freeloaders and Chinese soldiers In Yellowstone. White founded nations for White people would be the natural order of things, I declare! Everyone else can stop following the trail of real-world wealth and prosperity that only a united Caucasian community can create and sustain. If we were all equal all races would drag themselves from the mud and not expect handouts for simply being bipeds. If the Bible were a holy book and not the game plan to our demise, it would speak such truths, and eschew the gamey threats and horror stories.

“Nearly down to a 50 year low”

He’s getting a lot of mileage out of “near”. I’m nearly down to my ideal weight.

I believe this under reporting crime statistics started clear back with Slick Willy. He portrayed himself as a law and order guy so the best way to appear tough on crime is simply not to report it.

Memphrica’s Soreass backed DA made a statement yesterday that violent crime is down. This is the same day that a father and his 4 kids were shot while driving in the I-240 raceway. There is no end to the lies here people will spew.

The violence is a figment of Joes Biden’s open border policies and a multicultural dystopia.

Violent crime is a statistic until you become a victim of it, then it is harsh reality. The demo cities care not about the victims, it’s almost as if they think the victims deserved it.
