    This is unhinged. The so called “radical left” is largely a scapegoat for the people that currently run the government. The “radical left” isn’t going around shooting up synagogues and black churches. Even the one act of violence the “radical left” supports was committed by somebody who clearly was more of a “radical centrist”

      Here in Canada they burned churches.

      Also, leftist catch and release policy in Canada results in people with dozens of offences immediately put back on the street, and this has resulted in many murders, sexual assaults, continued violent crime by routine offenders. The weak on crime stance has resulted in massive crime increases here. Albeit not a political thing for the people doing the crimes, but a symptom of the policies.

      Also, I think everyone is pro-Luigi if that’s the crime you’re talking about. Common ground for all

        So what’s the evidence for policy driven crime rates? It appears violent crimes are level and other crimes are down at decades low? Am I missing something?

          The report by the actual department responsible for it. They’re definitely not level nor down, other than COVID blips which affect all stats everywhere for almost everything… Stats can often underreports:

          Neat summary and comparison of the trend:

            That is some of the most tortured data I’ve ever seen. It cuts off at a multi decade low. For reference the data you linked doesn’t disagree, its just clipped

              The best part is if you look at the table below it, it increases for the next two years before COVID.

              Stats can is like the worst org for posting cherry picked segments of info lol
