How can I have proof of something that hasn't happened? It is trending up but no way to know for sure if that will continue. It's called a hypothesis.
got numbers to show it is trending up?

Dude city after city is reporting increases in crime over the last 12 months.... And not just by a couple. Most are reporting triple digit percentage increases.
Tell the libtard to do his own research. Not your job man.
lmao. I know you don't have any facts to back it up, because that would involve you actually reading something and using your brain.
I actually went ahead and did some searching on the topic. While violent crimes has drastically decreases since the 1980s, there was an uptick in murders in many large cities last year. However, violent crime overall still dropped, and murders are still half of what they were at their peak in the 1980's.
Now, if you wanted to actually use what little brain power you have left, one could come to the conclusion that with all the schools shut down, especially in these big cities, leads to after school programs being closed down, sports being closed down, and a lot of other programs that keep young men off the streets. That very well could play a big part in it, since young men are most at risk for shooting deaths. It will be interesting to look back and see what other factors may be at play.
Either way, crime is not rising to 1980 levels, as nationwide, it is still declining, as it has been for 20+ years.
But again, I'm sure things like "numbers" and "stats" are hard for you.
