FBI Crime Report Ouy Today

Bastard was interfering in the election. He should be prosecuted for misinformation. This is a democrat position afterall.
That’s somewhat addressed in the RCI article.
“I have checked the data on total violent crime from 2004 to 2022,” Carl Moody, a professor at the College of William & Mary who specializes in studying crime, told RealClearInvestigations. “There were no revisions from 2004 to 2015, and from 2016 to 2020, there were small changes of less than one percentage point. The huge changes in 2021 and 2022, especially without an explanation, make it difficult to trust the FBI data.”
Funny ain’t it how these corrections always seem to cut one way? At least politically speaking.
Seaman Aloha has decreed that anything other than an assumption that this was an honest mistake is baseless conjecture and makes one a wing nut conspiracy theorist.
Isn't it amazing how these mistakes, glitches, anomalies, etc always go in one direction?
You need something concrete to base it on and you’ve got nothing but baseless speculation. I don’t know if you’re a wingnut but they’re generating a ton of obviously false conspiracy theories these days.
Aloha has a real blind spot on certain things. It’s quite striking.
No rational person can look at what the FBI did here and say there isn’t even a REASON to be suspicious of their motives. And that to do so makes one a wing nut conspiracy theorist.
Especially with the recent history of the FBI.
It’s crazy.
What makes it baseless speculation? The fact that it never happened to this degree before 2022?
Or that they tried slipping it in without anyone noticing it?
Or that, as far as I know, they STILL haven’t offered an explanation?
Something must make you say that.
So far all you’ve said is “mistakes are made. Big deal.”
Talk to me, not about me. I think they should make an inquiry. If there was an actual nefarious plot, you think they’d correct the data before the election? That wouldn’t be very logical, would it?
Because it’s baseless. You have zero evidence that anything deliberate or nefarious happened. Zilch. That’s the definition of baseless speculation.
If it’s baseless speculation and there’s ZERO evidence, then why would there be a need for an inquiry?
You’re not even making any sense.
And I explained my reasoning for why they fixed the numbers now, even though they tried to do so without anyone noticing it.
Plausible deniability. Joe/Kamala had over a YEAR ago campaign on these outstanding crime numbers.
You change them 3 weeks before the election, no one really even notices.
But now they can say, “hey, we released the REAL numbers before the election. We’re totes sorry, ya’ll. It was an honest mistake.”
Because it’s worth checking. It’ll probably be an innocent mistake, but maybe not. There is zero evidence it was anything other than a mistake.
If it was nefarious, they’d correct it after the election. It would only be logical.
You really are a man of faith, Aloha. Don’t ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
Good grief. 😂
I’m fond of facts.
I understand you desperately want this to be a nefarious thing. If it turns out to be something, so be it. In the meantime, speculate away. I’m out.
Aloha, anyone with any sense could have looked at these incorrect numbers, surveyed what was happening across the country and said “hell this makes no sense, we better review this again before publishing”. That obviously didn’t happen. Therefore they’re incompetent assholes or it was intentional. Both speak very lowly of the FBI.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion. Nothing wrong with that. I prefer to wait for facts to come out first.
The fact that they did not offer some explanation immediately, and rather tried to make this change as quietly as possible is a basis for questioning their motives. This is clearly not completely baseless, as you state.
We’re all just MAGA conspiracy turds to Aloha. There is no basis to question anything.
Not even something as CLEARLY messed up as this.
I didn’t call you turds. Be fair. 😉 Conspiracy theories rarely prove true. Right now you only have a theory and I wouldn’t put money on it proving true. You could get lucky though.
You know very well we will never find out the facts. EVER!
If you say so. I’m not capable of guessing the national numbers from Dayton, OH area. I don’t collect the data.
They didn’t loudly announce they missed by 6.6%. 6.6% Aloha. How damn bad is that? Are they really that incompetent?!? -2.1% compared to 4.5%.
FBI quietly updates crime data to show big jump in violence under Biden-Harris admin: 'Shocking' | Fox News
Crime and data expert John Lott spoke to Fox News Digital regarding how the FBI updated its 2022 violent crime stats to show a 4.5% increase, not a decrease.
It's such a bogus report anyway. New York and other major cities didn't even report.
And the FBI knows this and yet puts out bogus data.
But no, there's no reason to doubt them..... you have to be a real moron to believe anything they put out today.

As usual they'll be plenty of inquiries after the fact on this and why the variance. As there should be.
The Feds are terrible with large data compilation, always have been. I don't know the mechanism that local agencies use to report this data.... But I'm highly suspect there is a uniform data structure.
Very little incentive to get things both accurate and quick in the public sector. It usually gets reported right, eventually... But may be months or years later.
I've never put much stock in these national numbers and nor should anyone else. Better to look at trends reported by state and local officials.

Census Reports requesting balance sheet and income statement numbers on companies are a joke. On occasion I’ve called their offices requesting extensions. The Census employees have told me to just estimate/guess and send them in.
I don’t have confidence in any numbers the government reports.
I can think of three rather substantial ones that turned out to be true just in the last few years.
1. Hilary’s campaign funded the Steele dossier.
2. There were people within the FBI who wanted to influence the 2016 election.
3. Hunter Biden’s laptop.
