Ревизионизм
ФБР, пишут, втихаря немножко поменяло свою статистику. Насильственная преступность за 2022 год, оказывается, не упала на два процента, а нивроку выросла на четыре с половиной.
When the FBI originally released the “final” crime data for 2022 in September 2023, it reported that the nation’s violent crime rate fell by 2.1%. This quickly became, and remains, a Democratic Party talking point to counter Donald Trump’s claims of soaring crime.
But the FBI has quietly revised those numbers, releasing new data that shows violent crime increased in 2022 by 4.5%. The new data includes thousands more murders, rapes, robberies, and aggravated assaults.
The Bureau - which has been at the center of partisan storms - made no mention of these revisions in its September 2024 press release.
И даже эти ревизии общую картину улучшают не слишком.
While the FBI claims that serious violent crime has fallen by 5.8% since Biden took office, the NCVS numbers show that total violent crime has risen by 55.4%. Rapes are up by 42%, robbery by 63%, and aggravated assault by 55% during Biden’s term. Since the NCVS started, the largest previous increase over three years was 27% in 2006, so the increase under Biden was slightly more than twice as large.
А некоторые товарищи слева недовольны тем, что полстраны не верит официальным цифрам. Последняя строка статьи - “This lack of transparency harms the FBI’s credibility.” Как это говорил Тирион в Game of Thrones, "I do not question your honor. I deny its existence".
