Crime is about more than murder. Rich people aren’t getting killed in SF but they are getting robbed, their homes broken into, car windows smashed and stolen from etc. It has a huge effect on the quality of life and how people feel who live here. People regularly talk about being afraid to take their kids certain places and women fear going on walks alone etc. Again, it’s a big reason the DA was recalled. So murders in Mississippi are irrelevant
And is crime actually up or are they just feeling scared ?
