I won't put the behavior of individuals on the Obama Admin.... but I will put the current state of the economy and jobs as a factor in pushing people over the edge to commit crimes.

More people working... less time and less incentive to commit crime.

And don't even give me the phony unemployment numbers when number of people who have fallen off of the roles are at high levels.

Complete nonsense. Guns have been a constant presence in this country for a very long time. This recent spike in murder rates goes directly to the contempt for law enforcement, race baiting, and divisions fostered by the Obama regime.
