It certainly does run the gammut. States like Nebraska, South Dakota, Wyoming, Vermont have similar homicide rates to Western Europe and countries like Japan and China.
There are many cities across the country though that have some of world's highest homicide rates.
Crime has gone down in cities like NYC and LA since the 1990s.
There do seem to be many more cities lately that are near all-time records on homicide which was not the case in 2000 or 2010.
They cook the books a tremendous amount these days. Amazing, how so many homicides that are reported on the news are considered justified or reclassified to make the numbers look good.
The homicide rates spiked in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They were not a high level though the 20th century, there was a spike around that time and the rates in many cities decreased since then.
Even with cooking the books though the homicide rates have been increasing since early 2010s
We are all entitled to our opinion. It's party that but in general it is under the unbrella of the extreme moral rot in America that isn't going on in South Korea or Japan.
It can't be good that there are millions and millions of American men who are spending 40+ hours a week playing video games.
It's not the video games in moderation, it is that in America there is a tremendous amount of alienation. Millions of men in their 20s and 30s playing video games 40+ hours a week because of alienation and boredom is not a good for society.
There are many alienated people out there where that has become there life in America. I have read articles that people play video games on streams for 24+ hours.
Japan and South Korea while I am haven't been there are likely morally different. They don't have a terminal stage 4 moral cancer like America does.
This same thing is going on in East Asian countries. They are gamers that play so much, that they end up wearing diapers so they don’t have to take bathroom breaks. If you think this is just an American phenomenon then you are misinformed.
Well, well, well...the New Jersey "WHITE SUPREMACISTS" (as Joy Behar just referred to them) that shot up the Jews were....wait for it...BLACK.
Huh. I didn't know "Black Israelites" were also "white supremacists", Joy.
This is a movement formed more than 100 years ago based on “ revelations” that black people are the true ancient Israelites banished to Africa and sold as slaves by local tribes.
Several things make this Shooting unusual:
What the shooters were doing in the cemetery when approached by the detective?
Reportedly these two or their firearms had something to do with a shooting in Bayonne over the weekend.
Why the detective approached without back up
Race
Age
Gender of one of the shooters
The amount of ammunition these two had
The duration of the shootout between LE and the suspects

Black Israelites are nuts. They are a NYC staple. When I was growing up they were known for standing in Times Square with a bullhorn and screaming at passers by... espeically the white ones. But really everyone got it. As a black female frequently walking past them on my way to work wearing a short-ish skirt I got called some colorful names a few times. I was showing way too much flesh to be a proper female for them. Heh.
It's basically a cult. Very similar to those people who yell about God hating gays outside military funerals. I can't remember those whackjob's names but you get the idea.
I was suprised they had migrated down to DC when that story about the kid in the MAGA hat went viral.
Not at all suprised they have guns and were engaged in a shootout though.
It's amazing how much similarity there is between extremists on both sides. They really aren't that disimilar from a lot of nutbar right wing groups.
SHOCKING VIDEO: As Jewish bodies were still laying in cold blood after being murdered by terrorists in Jersey City, a rep of
@AmericansAA
captured spontaneous antisemitic tirades blaming Jews for their own murder & ppl cheering it on!

Sounds like they and the Westboro Baptist Church have something in common, albeit it appears some trend violent.
Religious fanaticism, born of revelations, is its own brand of nut job, regardless of religion.

That was the same group that was harassing and verbally threatening the Trump supporting high school kids in DC last year. They moved away and then got harassed by that jerk native american who then lied about his being harassed by them. Those kids were lucky they weren't shot.
Yes same group. Life is weird, that native amercian turd may have saved those kids from bodily injury.
The Black Israelite Movement is a loose network of international congregations. The SPLC and Anti- Defamation League have labeled some factions of this movement as hate groups. They oppose Jews, Muslims, Asians, LGBT, white and black people who do not believe or behave as they do. They seem to share characteristics with factions of white supremacist groups.

Yes, they are very similar. They hate everyone that's not them, and believe in preapring to fight the enemy... with guns.
