The alleged "increase of violence" is almost always only a perceived increase. It's what the people are told, to intimidate them, and to make them want a Big Brother to protect them.
It's one of those lies which are spread to prepare people for authoritarian leadership.

@helenS i am not speaking about actual crime, I.am.spraking more, at this time, about incivility to each other, bad mouthing, bullying and the likes. No one really measures those accurately.
