Wait, is that actually happening??

Edit: I thought you meant crime statistics were going up. Don’t mind me

Gang violence is trending up - I guess it's not a crime though, if the people who decide what's a crime say it's okay.

That's six months out of date

You're right, those six months have changed the trend of the past 12 years.

If anything I bet under Trumps America, murders by police have only gone down.

Are we counting murders by police as explicit violence causing injury and death, or are we also counting people being thrown in concentration camps and given below-the-minimum-standard access to basic necessities and healthcare?
