In 2024, the FBI reported a 4.5% decrease in violent crime nationwide, with a violent crime occurring on average every 26 seconds. The national violent crime rate was 359.1 per 100,000 residents, which is the lowest in roughly two decades.

Someone else mentioned it, but the myth of increasing violence is being used to justify a federal presence in cities where people disagree with the government.

@RosaMarie I think what is happening in the US under Trump is disgusting. Sending armed forces into cities using crime or antisemitism as excuses is an abomination. that is far different from what I am speaking of. BTW, blame it on whatever you want, minor crimes, shoplifting for example, seem to have increased.
