“Democrat cities are crime hellholes!”

What You Say

FBI and BJS data show crime varies by metro area and has fallen from 1990s peaks in many cities of both parties. Cherry-picking scary clips is not a crime rate. Policy debate needs victimization surveys and UCR trends, not vibes.

The Stab

If party labels caused crime, rural red counties would be crime-free. They are not.
