Murder and Violence Increasing in America

Yesterday I read a story about a police officer in Chicago pursuing three suspects on foot. They turned around, shot and killed him. It was just a few days ago in Houston that a policeman was shot and killed while gassing up his car. These kinds of headlines are becoming more and more common. A headline in the New York Times this past Monday declared, “Murder Rates Rising Sharply in Many U.S. Cities.” This is a surprising change from a multi-year down trend in violent crime. Why the change? Why is this happening? We’ll talk about a few reasons behind this terrible trend in America.
