Republicans Increase Crime
-
Murders, robberies and aggravated assaults in the United States increased last year, spurring an overall rise in violent crime for the first time since 2001, according to FBI data. Murders rose 4.8 percent, meaning there were more than 16,900 victims in 2005. That would be the most since 1998 and the largest percentage increase in 15 years.[^]

Since the 12 million Hispanic illegals are Christians, you're saying that Christian == Criminal, right?

If democrats were smart (which I'm seriously doubting at this point), they would use things like this to their advantage. They could say that Bush and the republican congress have taken their eye off the ball and forgotten that Americans need communities that are safe from criminals as well as terrorists.

Except that democrats want us to understand and sympathize with both groups. To even bring the subject up makes you a conservative. So they will never touch it. They are too worn out after bashing chrisitans and capitalists all day long to have much energy left over to waste on criminals in any case. "You get that which you tolerate"

Sure, that must be why crime fell drastically under democrat Clinton and rose under both Bush I and Bush II, republicans.

What that article strategically leaves out is the fact that even after the increase, the violent crime rate is the lowest it has been since 1965 (thanks to an unheard of continous decrease in the face of a bad economy since Bush took office). Not to mention all of the mayors of the top 5 10 (I wonder what the correlation is there!) cities (by murder rate) are Democrats. -- modified at 16:26 Monday 12th June, 2006
Homicides plateaued between the early 1970s and started decreasing after 1993. It peaked in 1991 (24,703 murders, 9.794 per 100,000), continued it's decline through Clinton's presidency (reaching 15,522 murders in 1999) and showed a slight increase since then: 15,522 murders in 1999 (5.692 per 100,000) 15,586 murders in 2000 (5.538 per 100,000), 16,037 murders in 2001 (5.620 per 100,000), 16,204 murders in 2002 (5.596 per 100,000), 16,528 murders in 2003 (5.685 per 100,000), 16,137 murders in 2004 (5.549 per 100,000), 16,900 murders in 2005. http://www.disastercenter.com/crime/uscrime.htm[^]

Based on absolute numbers, there's been a slight increase. The homicide rate hasn't really done much since 2000, and Bush's best year (2004) has a slightly higher rate than 2000. Also, nothing like the 1,000-2,000 per year decline in murder numbers that we were seeing during Clinton's presidency. http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/homicide/hmrt.htm[^] http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/homicide/tables/totalstab.htm[^]

Well, most large cities vote democrat, so that's probably a skewed sample to begin with. Second, minorities do commit more homicides (look up the crime statistics if anyone is looking to attack me for saying that) and they tend to vote for democrats. Hence, cities with more minorities are going to have more crime and are more likely to elect democrats. ----------------------------------------------------- Empires Of Steel[

Non-catholic christians are heretics (and catholics are heretics for the tenants of the Orthodox Church) - Heresy was a crime in old days, and seeing how things evolve towards obscurantism and intolerance, it could be back at some day.

That's not inconsistent with what I said. The murder rate decline from 5.62 when Bush took office to 5.549 in 2004 and remains at its lowest level since 1965.

Crime rates are tied with economic success, and Clinton happened to be president during one of the most expansive economies in US history, so the crime rate declined. That's obvious.

Which basically means that Democrats are much more violent than Republicans, despite their rhetoric.

Actually it rose dramatically hand-in-hand with the advent of liberalism. Only since Republicans took control of state and federal governments in 1994 did it begin to decline back to pre-hippy figures.

No, Islam is responsible for the violence in the middle east. You had your one chance to do us harm on 9/11. That's all you got. Ever hear the phrase, "Never wake a sleeping giant"? That sure was foolish.

What a stupid statement. So somehow when someone claims to be Christian, their religion is to blame when they commit a crime, but when someone is Muslim, their religion is not to blame when they strap on bombs and go blow up a infadels in the name of Allah? And, isnt it racist in the first place to claim that the Illegal undocumented immigrants cause an increase in crime? :rolleyes: MOΛΩN ΛABE

Irony - The use of words to express something different from and often opposite to their literal meaning[^]

You'd have to take that up with Mike. His original post made that statement.

Just minor Johnny-come-lately cults like Protestants, eh, not Catholics, the original Christians. :)
