Lemon is such a partisan douche. I heard the same guy on Glenn Beck who actually let him speak and his facts are correct. The rise is very dramatic in crime stats over the last 5-10 years.
Don Lemon sucks. He's the absolute worst. The guy is using data from Sweden and he's talking about US data and what classifies as "sexual assault" in America. He constantly cuts you off if you go against CNN's narrative.
Funny thing is when guest asks him to show him his report from Swedish source, He switches from arguing against increasing to against skyrocketing. I might be wrong but guest comes across consistent and open to any questions in both the interviews.
Fact checking begins at 1:38. Lemon uses US State Dept numbers. Horowitz uses numbers from Sweeden.
Note the superior seating position of Lemon. It's like they know he needs the help to appear as one having authority.
Except that Horowitz did not use numbers from Sweden.
These are numbers from Sweden. Different colors represent differnet types of crime, while light blue is total. Horiwitz is not telling you the truth. Maybe you prefer spinning it, like if you had 1 murder in 2000 and 2 in 2001, and then argue that murders have doubled. There has been hardly any change in crime rate in past 20 years, and our murder rates in US remain higher than in Sweden.
Number of crimes reported per 100,000 population in Sweden.

I had a family member living in Copenhagen's "no go zone" Nørrebro and somehow she didn't die.
In fact I can't recall ever having rocks thrown at me when I stepped into a immigrant neighborhood in Europe. The right wing media is so full of crap.
