Philadelphia has experienced the largest decrease in gun violence among major U.S. cities this year, as per data from @amprog. However, there are concerns about the reliability of FBI crime data, with experts questioning the accuracy of the reported crime statistics and the potential impact on public safety perceptions.
I mean, come on. The last line here is a huge part of why the hard hard right prefers FBI data. Sourcing patterns - up to 29 heavily poor and white states don't report - and the crimes of focus ensure you'll get more Black perps than the BJS-NCVS. https://t.co/8YPk3dF1Dg
Unreliable data skews the federal agency’s distillation of nationwide crime, and typically in a way that makes crime seem like less of a problem than it may actually be, analysts say. https://t.co/TdCB28SZjQ
But law enforcement experts and researchers say the police statistics regularly submitted to the FBI — the same numbers now being cited by the administration — are usually riddled with inconsistencies. https://t.co/TdCB28SZjQ

FBI crime statistics show murder is plummeting. Meanwhile, right wing media says the data is fake and goes with this instead. FBI stats only count when they tell you blacks commit a lot of crime I suppose. https://t.co/Y3lBTiPBWB
Violent crime, after skyrocketing during the "racial reckoning" in the days following George Floyd's demise on May 25, 2020, is finally seriously receding. Is the Great Awokening finally over? Or is the mania of the early 2020s merely dormant? https://t.co/B0ILEbncyD
The #FBI's Quarterly Uniform Crime Report data release has been posted. Key findings show that reported property crime for January through March 2024 decreased by 15.1 percent from January through March 2023. Review the data release: https://t.co/fQ7e9r34s9 https://t.co/Cnq9BSzqil
The “crime is falling” lie explained: https://t.co/vooolpgsbo
I am always flabbergasted how willing people in politics and the media are to lie and manipulate (lots of big crime districts like NYC stopped reporting stats, and the media and politicians are pretending that means crime has dropped). Like these people know what they’re doing,… https://t.co/qGlwbw64sm
This is sad how they portray this as a drop in crime, when in reality it is an intentional decline in reporting of crime. This is pure fake news. https://t.co/RG47L8i1as
The murder rate fell a lot last year. So far, its falling even faster in 2024. Thanks, Biden! It's Early, But Murder Is Falling Even Faster So Far In 2024, by @Crimealytics https://t.co/DUtYkjjgFv

Hilariously sad. Trump just denies that crime is down. The stats are all fake. I mean, who ya going to believe, FBI crime stats or a video posted by @WokeMyAss69? (And now my crime truthers will pop up and tell me about all those hidden bodies the CDC is hiding.) https://t.co/Wkc3phup57

The dramatic decline in crime touted this week by President Biden and other federal leaders has some analysts questioning whether a spotty data-collection process is painting a misleadingly upbeat picture of public safety. https://t.co/YEZ6LcBWub

Crime stats are now as reliable as job stats, inflation calculations, and post-midnight vote counts.

This is actually just a problem with the FBI-UCR crime data in general - 30-50% of agencies don't submit in EVERY year. Almost no small "poor white" counties do, at least in the years I have broken out and checked. This is how you can get extremely odd crime commission totals… https://t.co/2ipW0OH4X9

Crime is actually down. It's not merely a data issue. It can also be observed from homicide (cause of death) data (see next tweet). The mistake is interpreting that as remarkable achievement, rather than a return to normal from the extreme levels of the transient 2020-spike. https://t.co/pw1AVA9x91
