I'll fact check him. I don't know where he's getting his numbers, but even with the high murder rates in all these large cities, the U.S. is nowhere close to having the third highest murder rate. As of last year we ranked 76th, and our murder rate was less than a tenth of #1 ranked El Salvador's. In North and South America, only Canada and Chile currently have murder rates lower than ours. Even Greenland's rate is higher, and hardly anyone lives there.
here's another fact shoved down the memory hole: If you take away the shootings by POC we drop down below 100. This is a cultural phenomena that is hidden by the media and the pols.
You can connect it directly to LBJ and the welfare debacle which destroyed the black communities across the country starting with kicking the fathers out of the home via welfare rules and payments.
What about NYC?
Yep, take out NYC and Los Angeles as well and I bet it drops to 193 out of 193
