Source? On the surface you're acknowledging plummeting crime rates and then attributing specific reductions in Chicago (presumably) to the ICE "crackdowns" and referencing year-over-year numbers for a relatively recent set of activities which candidly makes me highly skeptical of any causative factor between your statistics and the ICE/CBP activity. Meanwhile, it appears violent incidents between law enforcement and citizens are way up (the apartment raid alone was dozens if not hundreds of instances).
Yeah EY all of OPs replies are really reinforcing the “average American reads at a 5th grade level.” Tech-driven polarization is real. Hope you and yours are safe in Chi - I’m done arguing with this particular pigeon ✌️.
What an insane conclusion. You mean the Nannies and Lawncare workers being kidnapped on the north shore by ICE has lowered violent crimes?
OP you’re dodging the point. Nannies and lawn care have been detained by plain clothes officers without a valid warrant, while they were just doing their jobs (ie not committing crimes). Some of these people are even US citizens. This does not lower crime in the US, and is an overreach. Do you agree?
So continuing the trend that has existed for the past 4 years?
That was my thought. Crime continues a downward trend, and is probably not as low as it would have been if the jackboots weren't running around cosplaying Gestapo. But hey, some people have to find out the hard way.
Crime has been going down for 2+ decades. It was at near historical lows before ICE or anyone showed up. Read the book Copaganda and stop parroting nonsense.
I gave a book you can read. They talk about Chicago specifically on multiple occasions. 2020 saw a spike across the board relative to those lows you saw in 2015. Since 2020, crime has gone down every year with the two largest drops the past two years.
Anyone who grew up in Chicago and actually remembers high crime in cities throughout the late 80's, early 90's, looks at your original post puzzled.
My favorite is you confirm what I said... "historical lows before ice showed up" with your historic lows in 2015.
And yet OP still hasn't sourced their alleged statistics
What about this one OP? They crashed into her and violently remove her from car and then say she inured them? Bro use your own fûcking eyes.

OP what did this dude do? Garbage related crimes?

Statistics are what ever my boss tells me to “adjust” for in the database. We never miss a metric or target as a result. The next year is always better than the previous year.
Nothing is hard to adjust
This post screams white privilege. Get a reality check ice visa vie Trump admin are targeting strong hold blue cities. Who sent migrants to the city? What crime stats have come from the migrant crisis?
That’s an odd take considering I’m Black.
Thank you, ICE!
Wait until we catch up on documenting all the violent crimes against people that have taken place since ICE came in. Disappeared people are having a hard time filing police reports at the moment, but eventually it will all come to light…

It’s almost like, if you export the third world, the barbaric culture goes with it 💀
And how many miscarriages happened in ICE facilities?
Those crackdowns are violent crimes.
So I'm sorry to say they simply label them otherwise and pass it as legal, but they are not. They are illegally detaining children, illegally deporting people and illegally beating them up and putting them in illegal prisons.
But since this isn't "crime" then it's easy to say that crime has been down. Although I highly doubt any of those stats are legit in the slightest and I could continue on how easy it is to manipulate them

Studio. Sure you can manipulate stats. But not murder stats. As they are black and white.
Even so, the democrats even cite these numbers +- a few points. So you claim that these stats are legit or that crime isn’t down is either ignorance or your refusal to believe them.
What is illegal about arresting someone who is here illegally?
