No. I have all different types of crimes. I just didn't want to paste it all in here but they all follow the same pattern. And that's why I went over the last 15 years of crime and not just now. The trends show that after 2015 things started to trend upward from larceny and thrift to homicide. I'm definitely going over averages because what else would I do? There'd be no point to going in and looking at individual municipalities. I think the average is to a pretty good job of explaining that defunding slave catchers didn't really put a dent in the crime levels that the slave catchers would want you to believe.
I've gone down that rabbit hole, looking over the FBI's, statista's, Brookings, and other published crime rates over the 14- years. Over that time the crime type fluctuations weren't as drastic as the news or police departments would have you believe.
As an example here are the homicide rates for that time period:
Crime rates before George Floyd:
Homicide
Based on the FBI Uniform Crime Reports data provided in the search results, the homicide rates for major U.S. cities from 2010 to 2019 showed the following trends:
The national homicide rate declined from 4.8 per 100,000 people in 2010 to 4.5 per 100,000 in 2014.
After 2014, there was an upward trend in homicide rates, which began in 2015.
edited for lame-o formatting and removed some weird percentages from notes I didn't finish looking up and therefore the stats weren't complete and not referenced either.
"According to the ByteDance researchers, OmniHuman-1 only needs a single reference image and audio, like speech or vocals, to generate a clip of an arbitrary length."
I am SO glad I never did a youtue channel, a vine, an IG, or really anything. This is creepy as fuck.
It was 3b until the George Floyd protests. Then we defunded them. Now they're trying to claw it back. They just got 500mill added to their budget last year.
I mean... I watched multiple videos of Palestinian journalist in Gaza say neither candidate matters to their people. Bisan, for one. So, feel free to argue directly with the people being exterminated and leave the peace protesters out of your criticisms.
Exactly. And even if there isn't an RSS available some of the paid RSS servers will webscrape for you. I have been building my own webscraping code but it works. I just decided I need to put some distance between myself and the abusive way we are presented news these days.
I was referred to read the book "They Thought They Were Free" by one of the bees here and it's great. I have a copy of it on document and my library has the audiobook version. I am studying Spanish and sometimes I think I'm such a hack at it but today's lesson with my sweetheart Argentinian teacher made me feel like I'm making progress. Some dickwad at a karaoke bday party gave me covid last week. Today is the first day of being covid negative. Paxlovid sucks, though. I finished building an RSS for myself so I can pick the good newsources and let the shitty ones be. I also finished studying pixelfed and cherry pick last week. Old friends are reaching out to me because the state of this country (the US) is scaring the shit out of everyone and they are coming to me to teach them about decentralized socials and because I worked as a human rights journalist/analyst for over a decade.* I guess they find comfort in talking to me. I donated money to archive.today and uhhh sh.itjust.works. Will donate to beehaw. My cherry pick instance is worried about being hosted here in the US and I told the mod I'll try and help them figure out a move. So any thoughts on that would be great.
Love you Beehaw admins. Been here only a week but you know I've been patiently waiting to join since spez was a see you next tuesday. And finally I am here and this instance is everything anyone could ask for. You are a great team of mods. This is such a quality place. Wha ta relief in this time. Thank you.
