I don't know about you but it sure seems like things are much more violent than peaceful than in the 90's. I can tell you that I was a cop from 1998 to 2012, never did it seem like "things were getting better", calls for service went up every year by 15%+. Every year we made more arrests, responded more burglaries, rapes and assaults.


Your anecdotal evidence is duly noted.

Meaningless, but duly noted anyway.
