m gardner Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I was listening to NPR (National Public Radio) and they said that becuase of the recession that crime was expected to spike upwards sharply but unexpectedly violent crime went down over 10%. Could it be because of all the evil guns we bought.:2guns: Or maybe the ammo? How about all the new carry permitees? This is priceless stuff. I bet this drives the hand wringing liberals nuts!

wtnhunt Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 The news we get out of Memphis tells another story on this topic. Seems they(some reporting depts) are supposedly fudging some numbers somehow to make themselves or their cities look better. Here not too long back the Memphis police chief, Larry Godwin, was taped as basically saying they could fudge their numbers too in order to make themselves look better and would potentially take them off the fbi's list, but that won't help solve the problems which are real. Memphis has been in the top 5 worst for quite some time. Godwin's tone towards other dept's across the country who may be involved in this "skewed" rate of reported crime seemed to me to be somewhat accusatory. Think what Godwin had to say may seem logical, then again maybe he was making excuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hungry hunter Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Could have fooled me, since our call load has not changed. My solution is to get ride of certain families and their blood lines. Then ya got a drop in all crimes. We had a family move out of town and our burglary's droped over 75%.
