“It will surprise the mayor and many other people to learn that gun violence isn’t rising in America, it’s falling.”.......

You’ll never see that in the liberal news.

Nope. Ya gotta actually do some investigating to find out this info. LOL! Like going to the doj stats pages. Really hard for those intrepid reporters to find the time for such arduous work.

The most important fact the article lays out is the 69% fall in non-fatal “gun crimes”. I’ve heard leftists try to attribute the fall in “gun deaths” to improved trauma care, and while there is some truth in that, the fact that “gun crimes” have dropped precipitously in a period when firearms ownership has become easier and more wide-spread is proof that the left’s analysis of the issue overall is not (as leftists like to claim for their positions) reality-based.
