| Why crime heats up during the summer | |
| 2022-06-03 | |
A 2014 U.S. Department of Justice report found significant seasonal pattern trends over nearly two decades that experts say lead to more people becoming violent crime victims during June, July and August. The DOJ found sexual assaults, intimate partner violence and other violent crimes typically happened at higher frequencies than during other seasons. | |

| #2 Johnson and the great society gave us food stamps and air conditioning. That had the greatest impact on riots in the cities. Then the poor were forced out by opportunists to purchase cheap housing in the cities. Purchase a row house for $20,000 in Alexandria and turn around a few years later sell it for 200-600 thousand. Now with city decay. Homeless get these houses as squatters for free. Wealthy leave being forced out by street violence. Family left after 8 shots into their home overnight with two bullets in the bed they were sleeping in. Benning heights area near PG line in DC. Both had good jobs in Maryland but they moved on out. Black youth told me they were afraid to go home in PG county by being shot. Being poor in these cities means if someone has something you are supposed to share it(skin color or race is meaningless). Same idea liberals have attacking wealthy(those they think are wealthy). |
