You’re wording sucked, but I get your point.

Here’s my point, they might as well all be false due to the fact no one has filed a complaint or lawsuit, which would require them to show evidence or provide testimony.

Anyone could make this allegation falsely and have no skin in the game. Since no one is willing to do any of the above mentioned steps, then it’s moot. It doesn’t count.

This dude frickin STINKSSSS

I see where you’re confused. “Crunching data” refers to taking a large sample size and analyzing it to produce meaningful information, not reducing a sample size to fit your assumptions.

I'll also point out that the number of homicides was at only 5 until close to the end of 2022. It went from 5 to 9 in a short period of time near the end of 2022.

So, the continued increase in violence in 2023 shouldn't come as much of a surprise when considering how 2022 ended.

statistically, no it's not at all probable that even a significant portion are false. go to bed, pig

And what if they’re all lies?

A stampede of accusations started due to someone’s spurned incident?

How about the US Federal lawsuit that was filed and withdrawn; without settlement, all in the time span of a month?

Obviously if that person was a victim of a crime with such patterns, why didn’t they pursue their case?

Don’t you think maybe, if any of this was true in todays age, someone would start an investigation against him?

The fact it hasn’t happened makes me think it’s not as true as it’s being made to be.

How the fuck is a 12 month period over the last 14 months irrelevant? Oh, I know, it’s irrelevant when you a propagandist hack with garbage data parsing skills.

You're the one posting out of context. That 2022 article you keep posting is irrelevant to what's been going on in 2023 (shootings every weekend so far and many stabbings).

All signs are pointing to a very bloody 2023.

no I think clearly-shitty people should be fucked with and made pariahs. again, your corkscrew tail is showing

Yeah I can see that, I don’t have any ideas about what to do in this situation. Just something I have seen in the past.

For what? Following criminal procedure?

Or would you like people to be able to be arrested without a complainant, purely based of speculation?

Or do you think the 6th Amendment doesn’t belong?

written like a true cop. go protect dunkin, barney

wow, shitty cop continues to be a shitty cop? i’m shocked.

You’re right. I’m a fucking idiot for not finding it and an absolute piece of shit. I wish I could be as intelligent as you, but you’re obviously so much smarter than most people and no one could ever compare. Einstein’s intelligence pales compared to yours.

Oh so now you love extrapolating data, when you’ve usually got such a hard on for ignoring it?

Optimism, friend. The city is in a great place, rates of violent crimes are at the lowest on average in decades.

Only forced, propaganda-style fearmongering would suggest otherwise. But that couldn’t be you, right? You don’t only ever post violent crime articles entirely out of context incessantly do you? That would be ridiculous. Like, no sane person would do that….

Sorry you have no critical thinking skills lol

The other responses were actually really helpful thankfully, so I’ll be going back.

I've been there many times. Look around and you'll see it's fenced in, just like every other dog park

Have you been there? It’s literally not visible at all from the main area and the only grass I saw was a soccer field, not fenced in. Thanks for your really helpful response though! It really added a lot to the discussion.

Oh nooo, can’t hide anywhere lol. Hi from Instagram. Sadly that’s all of the northeast cities. Providence and Boston especially are more accessible than Philly so I’ll take it. I’m pretty used to it at this point.

>Two homicides thus far, while tragic, would continue the excellent safety record for the city and follows the promising downward trend of violence in the city that we have enjoyed over the decades.

>9 homicides in 2022 was the lowest the city has seen since 1972.

How do you figure? 2 homicides during the first 43 days of the year. If it continues at that pace, we'd be looking at 16.98 homicides for the year. And the summer is typically when the numbers go way up. I'd guess that 2023 will be more than double 2022.

When is a dog park not fenced in?

Two homicides thus far, while tragic, would continue the excellent safety record for the city and follows the promising downward trend of violence in the city that we have enjoyed over the decades.

9 homicides in 2022 was the lowest the city has seen since 1972.

And has anyone pursued legal action? Means nothing unless someone does.

letting them fizzle actually encourages them by making them think it's acceptable since there's no pushback. it ends up having the opposite effect
