U.S. murders up 11% in biggest spike since 1971
Posted By Bob Unruh On    09/26/2016

Homicides nationwide surged by 10.8 percent from 2014 to 2015, an increase of nearly 1,600, according to a new report from the federal government.

It was the biggest single-year increase in four decades, the report said.

Analysts have attributed the surge to the “Ferguson effect,” the reluctance of police officers to confront black citizens suspected of criminal behavior in the aftermath of the mid-2014 shooting in Ferguson, Missouri, of black teen Michael Brown by white police officer Darren Wilson. Wilson was investigated several times but never charged because of evidence that Brown was charging at him when he was shot............

Overall, murders accounted for nearly 15,700 of last year's violent crimes, and nearly three-quarters of them were committed with firearms, according to the FBI report.



So you agree we need to do something about the availability of guns.

"The report shows that there was an overall increase in violent crime last year, making clear what each of us already knows: that we still have so much work to do," Attorney General Loretta Lynch said at a violent-reduction summit in Little Rock, Arkansas. "But the report also reminds us of the progress that we are making. It shows that in many communities, crime has remained stable or even decreased from the historic lows reported in 2014. And it is important to remember that while crime did increase overall last year, 2015 still represented the third-lowest year for violent crime in the past two decades."

And if yoU break down, most of those gun murders took place in Democrat run cities with strict gun laws.

so how did the guns get there?  are the gun manufacturers giving them away on the street?

Yup. We need to do something about the availability of guns in the hood. That would cut the murder rate in half.

Just like the drugs got there wvit.

[wvit1001]

so you think all those guns were smuggled into the country and passed on the streets?  You think you can provide some justification of your beliefs?

I thing, and the evidence shows, that most of those guns were legally sold in states with weak gun laws originally and then sold person to person with no background checks til they made it to someone who used it to shot someone.

wvit,
Since your wife will not acknowledge that 99% of civilian owned firearms never harm a soul... maybe you will?
