    How just half of all America's murders get solved as homicide clearance rates slump to their lowest level in four decades from 71% in 1980 to around 50% in 2020

    Homicide clearance rates have decreased to their lowest level from 71 per cent in 1980 to around 50 per cent in 2020, according to analyses of FBI data by the Marshall Project and Murder Accountability Project.

    America is now at risk of becoming the first developed nation where the majority of murders go uncleared, according to Thomas Hargrove, founder of the Murder Accountability Project, which tracks unsolved homicides in the US.

    Although US police have solved more murders than in any year since 1997, because of the increasing number of homicides, the clearance rate has dramatically declined to a little below 50 per cent.

    It’s funny that we have people on this board that live in Tampa Bay and think Newark, NJ is soooo bad.

    What do you think Stewart's chances would be if he ran for President in 28?
     
  9. Interesting question. He’s a smart guy, well informed, and he knows how to get a point across. He has a good moral compass and would take shit from no one. I think he would get traction.

    You are a foreigner and have no right to comment. The democrats made it clear that they hate you and want zero foreign influence.
