Why examining U.S. crime rates isn't as straightforward as you might think

“Our economy is strong as hell”

“2 quarters of negative GDP is not a recession”

“Our border is secure”

“Get the vaccine for your neighbor because it prevents them from getting it”

These are just a few of the “data points” that we’ve just had to go along with, please don’t pretend this is a one sided issue.

Crime is 100% out of fucking control and what’s worse is that most of these criminals are being bailed out for pennies on the dollar to go and commit more crime.

You want to talk about data? Look at the racially charged crime rates, or the actual data of white on black homicides. And what do we hear? Vicious police officers are out to get minorities, the country is overrun by white supremacy.

The reason republicans will likely win the house and the senate in the midterms is due to a disgusting amount of ignoring data.
