FBI: Murder, violent crime dropped in 2008
By DEVLIN BARRETT (AP) – 1 hour ago
WASHINGTON — Murder and manslaughter dropped almost 4 percent last year, as reported crime overall fell around the country, according to new data released Monday by the FBI.
The 3.9 percent decline in killings reported to police was part of a nationwide drop in violent crime of 1.9 percent from 2007 to 2008. Rapes declined 1.6 percent, to the lowest national number in 20 years — about 89,000.
The statistics are based on crimes reported to police, who then forward the information to the FBI. There were 14,180 murder victims in the United States last year.
"What has been impressive has been how flat all the violent crime rates have been since 2000. To a large degree that's still the case, but the striking change this year has been murder," said Alfred Blumstein, a professor of criminal justice at Carnegie-Mellon University.
The figures show that crime has come way down since its peak in the early 1990's.
Yes, indeed, Ronald Weinland's Great Tribulation is steaming forward full speed ahead.

In related news, self-righteous disbarred attorney Jack Thompson cannot use this data to proclaim that games like Grand Theft Auto increase real-life violence amongst youth.
Of course, he (and Weinland) could just refute the facts by saying "REPORTED crimes have decreased; things have actually gotten WORSE".
Crime goes down, realty sales go up, reported job losses go down, over all jobless rate slows for yet another month, the stock market continues to rise, global economy continues to rise...
The facts are all there, and they are un-controvertable! Ron is right, all the reporters and federal statistics agencies are wrong, people continue to be lemmings and listen to the lying government - news agencies - statistics makers - etc...
Like, we are in the GREAT TRIBULATION, things just can't be going up, they must be going down no matter how much visual & statistical evidence is reported by the vast majoirty of countries and economies. Ergo it's time to listen only to Ron and jump into the self created armageddon that is COG-PKG!
Honestly, I mean look at the alternative... we could smile, be grateful and happy and plan for a wonderful future... Oh, perish the thought, that would be perverse!

Happiness, along with Facebook - is just pure evil.
What was that Mr Bigglesworth?.... Yes, it is frickin freezing in here.....
