Crime was way up under Trump, understandably so, because of COVID.
Trump's statement recently are complete fabrications. There is absolutely no data supporting his lies. He's a deranged and deluded narcissist that's projecting his high crime numbers on to the current administration - years later.

And this insanity about "defunding"?
Oh - just another deflection ignoring the reality of what actually happened.

Entirely different time period, not even related to Floyd.

Still, very interesting, even if it has nothing to do with "defund the police" nonsense. It is a potential model for change. Thanks for linking that.

Based on what that local policeman said I'd bet he wasn't a Camden officer but perhaps one that's a Union member in a different precinct? The police union had to be done away with in Camden to finally break the horrible police "blue line" that had pitted horrific police against the populace. That would definitely make some union officers pretty pissed off and worried about their own jobs.

The idea of manipulating the numbers is fairly ridiculous in the context of Camden.

In terms of the context of this thread, it's utter bullshht. It is insane to think the crime numbers are being manipulated across all municipalities of any significance across all fifty states.

Looks like the right-wing propagandists are doing their best, and their little followers having removed any capability to ask simple questions (critical thinking) are spewing it.
