Protect Yourself: Smith & Wesson Self-Defense Tools, Knives and EDC Gear 50% Off at Amazon
There is a small but very vocal group of people who are in denial about rising crime rates. Maybe some of your more liberal friends and family are in this cohort. This faction insists that reports of rising crime are really just privileged people overreacting to the increased visibility of homeless people and poverty. Yet the latest violent crime statistics paint a very clear picture — the worst types of crimes, such as murder and carjackings, are on the rise in many places. In addition, a lot of people have personally experienced frightening incidents in their own neighborhoods. There are also daily reports of mass shootings, random attacks, and other heinous crimes. Taken together, this makes crime denialism feel a lot like a particularly ridiculous form of gaslighting.
As we said in our guide to the best self-defense weapons earlier this year, the great crime decline seems to be coming to an end, or at least temporarily reversing. Americans have taken note, and majorities of Americans say that crime is rising in their region.
