Yeah, in areas with strict gun control, like the Marxist Messiah's hometown of Chicago.

Actually he was not that specific. Violent crime has indeed been going down for years. Obama has not taken Anyone's guns despite years of propaganda warning it was one of his chief goals. But yes, the publicity did wonders for gun sales and production.

I don't think Trump said that.

What I heard was...the cities with the strictest laws against citizen gun ownership have the highest levels of violent crime.

More guns in the hands of private citizens equals less crime and especially less violent crime.

More Concealed Carry Permits equals less violent crime.

The murder rate in our country is the highest it’s been in 47 years, right?"Trump said. "Did you know that? Forty-seven years. I used to use that -- I’d say that in a speech and everybody was surprised, because the press doesn’t tell it like it is. It wasn’t to their advantage to say that. But the murder rate is the highest it’s been in, I guess, from 45 to 47 years."
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements /2017/feb/08/donald-trump/donald-trump-wrong-murder-rate-highest-47-years/

He also said it was up in cities on another occasion.

And as it happens there was a spike in the last couple years despite an overall downward trend over the last 20.. when gun controls were generally tougher than in the past.

Trump was right...and IS right.

"The murder rate in our country is the highest it’s been in 47 years"

The fact the rates HAD been going down for a period of time doesn't win the day for leftist loons.

At the time Trump said that, it was TRUE.

They've been going down for twenty some years. NOT 47. They have gone up only in the last year or so.. comparative to the lowest rates since the 90s

so no, he was not right at all.

Try reading the graph in my post. He was dead wrong

In fact the last two years , which breitbart peg as the highest gun ownership numbers ever, coincide with the recent spike in murders after 20 years of major decline. It still isn't anywhere near where it was in 95 but its going in the opposite direction.

That was 22 years ago by the way.. not 47

They may have been going down over time but they were up in recent times and higher than in 47 years.

Obviously, there was a point at which time those rates started climbing.

You've got your wires crossed again.

That graph shows murders per 100,000 population. It DOES NOT SHOW TOTAL MURDERS IN THE UNITED STATES. Nor, does it show total population for each year of the graph.

I'll give you a clue. Total murders are not the same as murder RATES. So your dismissal of the graph is totally irrelevant.Nobody in this whole thread has been talking about total murders.. including you and your Hero.

Do you even know what..."Concealed Carry Reciprocity" is?

Are you suggesting concealed carry permittees from other states are going into Missouri to commit violent crime...since the Concealed Carry Reciprocity statute was passed?

is that so farfetched? You suggest often that criminals from another state cross the southern border to commit crimes here. in fact you act like they have nothing better to do than tunnel into the country to prey on innocent American bystanders.

St Louis is a big city with a lot of transients.. who are now allowed to carry. It seems the right to carry anywhere in the state (since last year) hasn't reduced crime there.

Maybe that's because felons and "judged incompetents" are still barred!🙃
