The TLDR of this video is that the libshit talking point of "Muh crime is at a 30 year low" is a lie.

1. They justify this claim by going back to 90's data, but not 60'S or 70'S data, which clearly showcase a safer America than the America we currently live in.
2. Quite recently, many police departments have refused to share crime data with the FBI or DOJ for official reporting. Of course, the majority of the departments were in libshit cities.
3. The reason murder statistics showcase a descension in violent crime is advances in technology and medicine. Doctors today are able to save lives easier than they were 3-4 decades ago.

As Mark Twain once said, "There are 3 kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics."
