What causes violent crime rates to rise? It probably won’t surprise you to learn that 2020 was the deadliest year in American history but what you may not know is that 2020 also saw a staggering rise in homicides and violent crime. It’s impossible to separate the two – the indefinite closure of crucial community spaces and abrupt economic upheaval were felt nationwide but hit hardest in areas most vulnerable to increased interpersonal violence. To understand what happened last year, it’s worth looking back at the last major wave of violence in the United States – what caused the spike then and what caused it to go down? Sociologist Patrick Sharkey’s book, “Uneasy Peace”, lays out the most successful strategies cities used to decrease violent crime and joins to lend his expertise on what we got right – and what we’re getting wrong. » Subscribe to MSNBC:

Also, drugs. Ppl will not call the cops if they are involved. Or if ppl don’t have papers, they won’t call either.. This is intensional, tho.
Are you enjoying the Chriscast?
The Biden Infrastructure Bill can be much better than what is being proposed. Since it is not a tax but rather an investment then structure it as such.
