    Yeah I would say they have been abnormally high since 2016, with 2020 being an oddity (COVID).

    Murders overall are half what they were in 1990. Meaning we have a lot more targeted attacks for various reasons I’m not going to speculate in because my bias would likely impact what I think reasonings may be.

      Yeah, it is safer now then ever before overall. I live in Sacramento. Very big place area wise but 20 years ago… It was dangerous with almost half the population size.

      New York in the early 90s was cool but you never went down any alleys. I don’t care what it was. If it rolls down the alley it is the lords then.
